Who am I?
Professional Wedding Officiant, Dana Caggia
As a Notary Public in the State of Florida, I am commissioned to marry two individuals who can't imagine life without the other! I am flexible, reliable, respectful and accommodating to every client’s unique
needs and preferences.
With on and off stage theatre, voiceover and professional singing experience,
I am comfortable reading the wedding ceremony with or without a microphone. For an additional fee, officiant will bring a portable PA system. I am also ordained through the Universal Life Church.
Preferred vendor with: The White Barn, Brooksville; Southern Streams Ranch, Thonotosassa; Happy Hearts Barn, Plant City; Elope Tampa Bay and Beach Weddings with Style
The Ceremony
It's all about You!
Your ceremony will be designed to reflect your love for each other. Using a framework and your answers to a few questions, your personalized ceremony is written.
Whether it is an elopement, or traditional ceremony or a vow renewal, it will still contain your voice and personality. Ceremonies may include family members, personal vows, a sand, hand fasting or candle ceremony, an Irish Blessing, reading or other tradition or ritual of your choosing.

Fees
What should you expect?
My flat rate fee includes telephone consulting, writing and officiating an original ceremony for you, and signing of Marriage License. The Professional Officiant fee of $275-$350 is based on distance. If requested, Officiant will mail the license to the courthouse by certified mail/return receipt requested for an additional $10 day of ceremony.
If you should need my services for an in-person rehearsal on a date other than the wedding day, there is an additional $100-200 fee, covering time and travel of the officiant.
A 50% deposit is required to hold a date. Final payment is expected at least one week before the wedding date. All payments guarantee my availability for your ceremony, date, time and place. Please contact me for quote or with questions or concerns.
