4. Is the officiant willing to discuss non-traditional wedding ceremonies and traditions?
5. Does the officiant require pre-marital or religious counseling before getting married?
6. Will the officiant let you specify ceremony details such as music, readings and vows?
7. Do they have sample vows and readings to show you?
