Zoom – Favorite Traditions
Our Services » Education and Networking » Events »
On June 16, 2021, members of the Justice of the Peace Association took advantage of the opportunity to talk with each other and exchange points of view.
Discussion Included
- Some ceremonies that were discussed included the traditional ring ceremony. And candle and wine box ceremonies. Members related enjoying processes that engage the couple. Sand ceremonies were a fav, especially if children are involved since it gives them a way to be included.
- How much time officiants spend creating a ceremony. (JPus polled members on Facebook in 2019 and 69% spent three or more hours for a simple, in-town wedding.)
- Incorporating extra costs into fees, whether for special ceremony or customized wedding certificates
- Fees for various services, and how to navigate this in Massachusetts where fees are regulated.
- Balancing our core values and respecting the couple’s
