F.A.Q.

Q: What do you mean by a "Customized Ceremony"?
A: Instead of just a standard textbook ceremony, you may pick from several different types of ceremony's, vows, readings, etc.  If you have something special or different you want to include I will work with you to put it in.

Q. How long is my marriage license good for?
A: In the state of Washington you must wait 3 days after getting your license  to marry and it is good for 60 days. you need two witnesses.

Q: Do I need to have a rehearsal?
A: Since we are a resort destination at least a couple hours from where most people live, it is usually not necessary.  We will have everything worked out ahead of time and the ceremony will be easy to follow. We also provide assistants to guide you through with packages.

Q. Do I get my deposit back if I cancel?
A. The $100 deposit is non-refundable. Please be sure before you book.

Q. What is my "Plan B" if it rains?
A.  It is your responsibility to provide a "back-up" location. It is usually the place
of your reception. We can set up all our packages except the tiki torches inside,
however you must make the decision based on the weather forecast, the day  before your wedding.        (click here to read more)    WHAT IF IT RAINS?

Q. What if we are running late for our scheduled wedding time?
A: It is extremely important that you allow enough time for you and all your guests to get to the site.  We will be ready for you 30 minutes early and we ask the same courtesy from you.  We must start on time, as we usually have several weddings scheduled in a day.  When you are late, you not only inconvenience all your guests, but also everyone working on your wedding and everyone else who may be getting married after you that day.  We allow a 15 minute maximum grace period.
