BAY AREA CEREMONIES
Personalized … Exceptional … Innovative
Dr. Richard A. Kaplowitz, Officiant
A quick trip to see an Elvis impersonator in Vegas is almost as antiquated as the clichéd ladder up the side of the house in the middle of the night.
These days, many couples choose to elope right here in the Bay Area, and save a small fortune.
You can have minimal stress for your wedding day and yet, with Rick’s help, still
have a ceremony that will remain special and treasured.
How to Arrange Your
Short-Notice Ceremony
Rick will invite you to his home, and marry you under a majestic pear tree in the yard, if weather permits, or inside as appropriate.
Or, he will meet you at an appropriate site that you have chosen for your elopement.
The normal fee for a gracious and caring short-notice ceremony with up to four guests is $140-$275. You will need a bride, a groom, 1 or 2 witnesses, and a wedding license.
Elopement and Short-notice ceremonies are generally arranged by phone.
Call Rick directly to discuss your short-notice marriage, at 650. 852 – 9700, or use the Contact Rick form.
Rick’s elopement ceremonies are much more memorable and heart-felt than the more sterile options performed by a municipal clerk after you've waited in line at City Hall.
