Because of the pandemic, many couples have had to cancel their weddings or postpone them until next year. If you are looking for an outdoor brief signing ceremony that is socially-distanced, I offer two options:
1) A simple, 10-minute, pre-scripted ceremony with no more than 10 socially-distanced guests= $150.00
2) A simple, 10-15 minute, pre-scripted ceremony with some personalized elements and no more than 25 socially-distanced guests= $250.00
(Both ceremonies must take place outside in downtown Chicago, and must comply with state/ city pandemic regulations)
