Justice of the Peace Gordon is considered an expert in organizing and conducting weddings of all faiths.  
He will help to plan your personalized ceremony and vows, making your ceremony one-of-a-kind and
creating memories that will last a lifetime.


Services include:

The Prenuptial Conference
After booking your wedding, each couple will have the opportunity to meet with Justice of the Peace Gordon for complete planning and selection of the wedding ceremony.  The couple will pick any customs or wedding traditions such as readings, unity candle, etc.

The Rehearsal
If a rehearsal is required or requested, Justice of the Peace Gordon will run the rehearsal from start to finish. If requested, Justice of the Peace Gordon will show you how to escort people to their seats by using social etiquette, how to pull the runner down, how fast to walk and any other requests that may be pertinent to your wedding ceremony.

Copies of ceremonies are prepared and given, if requested, to the bride and groom.
A special Certificate of Marriage, suitable for framing, is also presented to each couple.  
This invaluable certificate can be taken on a honeymoon, as state licenses are not immediately available.

Encore Weddings ~ Second Marriages
Justice of the Peace Gordon particularly enjoys working with couples who are planning an encore wedding, that is a ceremony in which one or both spouses are re-marrying. Second marriage couples are exciting because they are more mature, know what they want, and bring to this marriage hard-won wisdom gleaned from the past. These couples truly understand the meaning of "for better, or
for worse."

Justice of the Peace Gordon will work with second couples to create a deep and meaningful ceremony. Together you and he will construct a wedding that reflects your precious love, your unique relationship. This marriage ceremony can be a radical departure from the wedding in your past, or a reinterpretation of cherished traditions that reflect your new love, because this wedding is truly "until death do us part"
