THEIR REHEARSAL is $200

Our rehearsals are $100 to cover time and travel, and we stay there until you are confident that everyone knows where to go and what to do.
Okay…. so enough of my rant.  It truly upsets me that wedding services take advantage of couples wanting to be married on the Beaches around our shores  and gouge them with ridiculously high fees.  We all have expenses like phone consultations and travel, and with higher gas prices it can be tempting but not necessary to charge more just to make more.   Now back to the fun beach wedding and photography stuff !

WELCOME TO OCEAN CITY WEDDINGS

When you close your eyes and dream about your Wedding Day on the beaches of Ocean City, MD…. What do you see?

That is what Pastor Mary wants to know.  How can she help you to create just what you want for your wedding day?

Pastor Mary has performed hundreds of weddings each and every summer on the beaches of Ocean City, since 1998.   She has learned as much from the hundreds and hundreds of couples that she has married, as they have learned from her.    One ceremony held a very simple Sand Ceremony. Pastor Mary loved the concept and elaborated on it to design a Beach Unity Ceremony for the couples to share just after they exchange rings.

Listening to couples try to choose just the exact amount of photos that their photographer wanted to give to them – and then sell them more, was difficult.  Who wants to leave many of their wedding photos, never to be seen again?   Or worse, have to pay more to get the additional photos if they wanted them enlarged or to use as Thank You’s and Christmas cards.

So…. the agreement Pastor Mary makes with the photographers that she hand picks, is that after the “bad” photos are discarded, and the rest are edited – the couple will receive all of their photos on a CD, to do with what they wish.  The only restriction, is that they may not sell them.  And who wants to sell their wedding photos anyway!

Pastor Mary works with each couple, to provide the ceremony that  they wish to have.    If you want to blend traditions of families, religions, cultures…. let her know, and she will gladly include your traditions.   This is what personalizes your ceremonies, and creates the memories you will cherish of your wedding day.

Readings, music, singing… friends and family are welcomed and encouraged to participate in your wedding ceremony and celebration.

What can Pastor Mary and her other hand-chosen Ministers, do for you to make your wedding day unique for you?

You can contact Pastor Mary directly by sending an email to OceanCityMinisters@gmail.com

Our Beach Weddings are meant to be ……

Simply Beautiful and Beautifully Simple for Your Beach Wedding.

Here are our 2012 Wedding Packages

Minister Only $250

Email correspondence with me up to your wedding day, to ask all the questions, and get suggestions

that you may need to make your additional arrangements. Of course the ceremony! And I file your

paperwork at the Worcester County Courthouse so that all is legal and set to go for your married life.

Minister and Professional Photographer $750

You will receive 100 poses that you will select from your gallery – of the  photos taken (eyes closed or any bad shots are deleted) all photos will be edited, and mailed to you on a DVD within two weeks after we receive your choices.

Our photographer has an excellent eye for these things! He has a great sense of the best shots, and is

a pro at editing for artistic portraits.

You will also receive a “shared copyright release” which will allow you to print your photos when YOU

like, in the sizes that you want, and as many as you would like, without having to come back to us to

purchase more photos.

Additional 30 minutes with the Photographer is $100.

Our Photographer has had so many requests for private “Couple Only” sessions before and after the

ceremonies, that he asked me to post for everyone… YES!  He would absolutely love to do a couple of

hours of fun shots around OC and beach portraits of the two of you.  A time to relax and have fun and

get some unstressed goofy and gorgeous poses.

Two Hours $500… just the two of you and a camera,

capturing shots that you would never have otherwise.  Let me know way ahead, so we can

co-ordinate the timing.

So that’s it!! Our “something new” …. Simple Beach Weddings for Your Wedding Day.

Call anytime. 410-680-6366 or email pastormarymazzullo@comcast.net

I look forward to answering all of the questions you have about getting married on the beaches From Rehoboth to Ocean City to Assateague Island State and National Parks!

** Ocean City Weddings is fortunate and thankful to be able to welcome many couples over the spring/summer/fall wedding seasons in Ocean City.  We have 5 Ministers in addition to Pastor Mary, who are available to Officiate and celebrate your wedding with you. We would be remiss in what we are here to provide for you, if we were unable to provide services due to having only one Minister available for weddings.
Due to locations from Assateague Island to Rehoboth Beach in Delaware and the travel time constraints, Pastor Mary is not always able to be at every ceremony…. although she tries to be, as this Wedding Ministry is her passion.

There are 3 additional male Wedding Officiants, and another female Pastor who may be performing

your ceremony. The ceremony they perform is the same one that Pastor Mary has designed for

today’s updated couples, and all have the same passion and enthusiasm for beach weddings.  You will

be notified if, for any reason, Pastor Mary cannot officiate your ceremony.

We want to be there for everyone, and will assign the Wedding Officiant who is perfect for your

wedding day.  Gratuities are non-refundable, as you are guaranteed a wonderful wedding officiant

for your wedding ceremony, whether it’s Pastor Mary or one of her hand picked Pastors!  A Wedding

Ministry means dedication and passion for what we do… and that is assure a wedding ceremony that

will leave you with wonderful memories.
