Becoming a wedding officiant or wedding celebrant is easier than ever, and that means more competition for the services you offer. Many new officiants, though, have never had to market a business or service. Since certification companies rarely include much, if anything, about how to market celebrants' services, independent celebrants are at a disadvantage. This book gives celebrants a wealth of ideas to use in marketing their business as well as conducting it, for everything you do to get your service noticed, booked, or appreciated is marketing. This book guides celebrants though the nuts and bolts of setting up a professional practice as a wedding celebrant. Topics covered include:-developing promotional materials and how to use them, -creating a website that highlights your unique approach to celebrancy, -social media and other online opportunities, -getting referrals,-networking, and more.About the AuthorDeborah Vaughan has more than 30 years of experience celebrating weddings and also trains wedding officiants. Since 1999, she has also provided business owners including wedding celebrants and vendors with marketing services from consulting to copywriting. "I am a helper by nature," Vaughan notes. "So I wanted to offer celebrants, especially new celebrants, a host of workable ideas that don't cost thousands - or even hundreds - of dollars to implement. Some techniques are common knowledge, such as using social media to advertise your business. Knowing what to do with your Pinterest account, though, makes all the difference to your results."

Book excerpt: For those looking to create a personalized wedding ceremony that honors and celebrates the diverse religious, racial, or ethnic backgrounds of the couple and their families, this book provides expert guidance for perfectly blending traditions and faiths. "Alternative" wedding ceremonies are quickly becoming the norm in the United States as ethnic cultures merge and people willingly embrace love where they find it. Couples planning an interfaith, interethnic, or interracial marriage often encounter difficulty identifying the right rituals and language for their ceremony or struggle to appease their parents or relatives. This book will help couples learn more about each other's faiths and family mindset, freeing them to create a wedding that truly blesses their married life. Reverend Brockway explains her motivation to write this text: "This book was a very personal mission for me. As an interfaith minister, I deal with so many diverse couples, from so many different backgrounds, but the common denominator with all couples boils down to love. So the book focuses on celebrating the love between the couple as the most important part of the ceremony, and weaves in honoring family, cultures, and traditions in a way that is personally meaningful to the couple." Contains insights shared by brides and grooms, interviews and information from other attributed sources, as well as special contributions from Rev. Victor Fuhrman Presents exclusive materials designed by the author throughout more than a decade of experience in ministry
