As an elopement photographer, becoming ordained allows you to offer a seamless, all-in-one experience for couples who want a minimalist ceremony. Many eloping couples prefer simplicity, and having you as both their officiant and photographer ensures an intimate, streamlined day.

Getting ordained is quick and easy. Platforms like Universal Life Church and OMinistry.com let you register online in just a few minutes. Once ordained, you can legally officiate ceremonies in most states, though it’s essential to check local laws and witness requirements.

This simple addition to your services makes you stand out in the elopement market while creating unforgettable experiences for your clients.
