Perfect for Your Short-Notice Wedding or CT Elopement

We perform quick, simple weddings, elopements, and vow renewals. 
Our quick and simple weddings are a great alternative to impersonal, matter-of-fact, town or city hall courthouse weddings!!
 
Many people prefer a ceremony without all the fuss, stress, and expense of a traditional wedding.  We can provide beautiful, personal, yet affordable weddings for couples who prefer something short, intimate, and private- at our home, at the beach, a public park, or in your own home.  We would be honored to help you on your special day!

A Few of Our Many Testimonials:

Let's Elope! 

Quick and simple weddings....  relaxing, simple, and stress-free! If you want to be married and want the simplest, quickest way possible in Connecticut, all you need is a marriage license and an appointment.  There are a few requirements for the ceremony- you both have to agree to be married- but that can be done very quickly and simply. You don't need witnesses. You aren't required to say anything except "I do!"  Just let us know what's comfortable for you.  Dress up or come casual.  Much more romantic and fun than a wedding at city hall.  Your wedding- your way!

What is a quick and simple wedding?
 Quick and simple elopements and wedding ceremonies are performed for just the two of you (or up to 6 close friends or family members.) 

Our availability:  We are available days, evenings, weekdays, weekends, and holidays.

Locations: Our home.  Choose our sunroom, our fireplace room, or our summer gardens for an intimate ceremony with ambiance.  We provide music and candlelight! 

              
OR we can travel to your home, a park, or the location of your choice within New Haven County. (Beach weddings are great!)

Ceremony:  Choose from our short and sweet ceremonies.  Ceremonies can be religious or non-religious.  Pastor Bob will wear a suit or a robe, whichever you prefer.

Keepsake photos: We take photos of your wedding with a digital camera, and are happy to take pictures with your camera as well. 

Fees: Quick and simple weddings are inexpensive weddings: In our home or in the New Haven area, they are just $150 weekdays, week nights, and off-peak weekends (November through April.)  During peak weekends and holidays, May through October, (Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays), our fee is $175.  We also offer military discounts.  Beyond the New Haven area, we add a $50 travel fee.

Optional: sand ceremony, rose ceremony, or unity candle ceremony ($40 each if we provide the materials- no charge if you do.)  

Contact us: You can email us at weddingpastors@aol.com, or call us at (203) 503- 4102 to set up an appointment. (Short notice is okay!) 

Not from Connecticut?  Not a problem.  We have happy couples traveling to us from New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania- even as far away as Texas and Missouri!  They often tell us it is simpler- and sometimes cheaper- to come here.  Some city halls have long waits, some states require a waiting period.  Connecticut laws allow you to get your license and get married all in the same day- no need to wait.  Short and sweet!

"We're Ready to make a Reservation!":  Here's how.


Prefer a longer ceremony with lots of guests?  We can do that, too!  See our Ceremony Services information.
