• Make certain that your prospective wedding officiator is degreed in his/her field. Ruling out those without long- time officiating experience, part-timers, beginners, internet or mail-order ordained, the questionable or those officiating just for fun, is an important start. A screened, career, professional officiator is a minimum standard from which to start.
• Make certain that your prospective wedding officiator can demonstrate a knowledge of park wedding ceremony pro’s and con’s. Helping you to factor in a number of variables - sound system or lighting requirements, park policy, ceremony limitations due to physical location and the like.
• Consider the officiator’s physical qualities in the light of the park environment - inarticulate or soft speaking voice, untidy appearance, confident, friendly, or overall state of health
• Consider the officiator’s knowledge of your specific park marriage ceremony location. For example, the officiator’s actual experiences at your chosen park wedding venue… i.e. their opinion on the wedding venue’s acoustics, site’s distractions, parking and location restrictions, etc.
• Is based with a reputable Orange County officiators group. A screened, career officiator with professional local wedding affiliations.
• Has a working experience with park wedding locations in Orange County - Los Angeles County – Riverside County – San Bernardino County or San Diego County
• Make certain that your pre-selected marriage officiator will be the one presiding over your wedding ceremony. You do not want to meet with one wedding officiant/minister/clergy only to have another one show up on the wedding day. One that has not had significant park wedding ceremony experience.
• Make certain that your primary officiant/minister/clergy/justice of the peace can supply guaranteed emergency “back-up”, in the event of their illness. This “back-up” should agree to the terms arranged with your primary officiant. The “back-up” should perform the wedding ceremony content already agreed upon.
• Make certain that the officiant/minister/clergy/priest/rabbi/justice of the peace will add the warmth and personality to your ceremony, complimentary to the park wedding environment.
• Make certain that the marriage officiant consults with the wedding professionals directly related to your wedding ceremony & transition to the wedding reception festivities. The park wedding reception caterer, event planner or banquet coordinator, photographer, videographer, D.J., musicians, etc, are to be included in this list.
• A park wedding ceremony should not focus on the limitations associated with the setting, but rather emphasize the locations advantages.
