Officiant for Destination Weddings

Knowledge of an area can yield some breathtaking locations for weddings

An ideal business for someone who loves to travel is a tour service. Knowledge of specific destinations in the area you service is obviously the most important thing a tour guide can offer. Another idea for the potential tour operator or even someone that already operates a tour business is to be ordained as a minister and perform weddings at these special destinations.

Many people dream of weddings that have nothing to do with churches, flowers, or tradition. To them, the most meaningful ceremony in which to marry that special person they love is to have the ceremony while they are doing the very thing that is most special to them and their intended. A hiking trail, a diving cliff, or even just a destination view on a mountaintop could become the chapel for which your customers get married. And as the minister, you become an unforgettable part of that experience.

Universal Life Church offers a free online membership program and once completed, you will be ordained and able to legally perform weddings at the destinations that your customers have always dreamed about. It’s such a valuable service to be able to offer. As the tour guide, you already have the experience of the area to advise your clients on any possible hazards, counsel them on the equipment they need, and prepare them for the activity they are undertaking. It would be an easy next step to help them incorporate their wedding attire into the gear they need, perform the ceremony, and congratulate them on their decision.

Most people offering touring services have some little gimmick to draw customers to their tour instead of a competitor’s. The Universal Life Church will give you a way to offer your clients something infinitely more valuable than any other little trick. Since the ordination is free, you wouldn’t have to invest extra money into this project. But advertising this service could be invaluable to your business because of clients who are already so dedicated to these activities, they take tours in order to pursue them.

An activity wedding is meaningful to that couple. They do not care about the trappings of a wedding. They do not want to spend many thousands of dollars on a traditional ceremony to impress other people. The couple could make their wedding attire the garb that they would wear for the activity, anyway. All they would need in order to get married during your tour is a marriage license and you, as the minister, performing their ceremony. The Universal Life Church is offering you a way to be able to accommodate your clients in this most special of request. And best of all, it’s free for you to be ordained.
