Officiant Services

Let Me Officiate...

I love weddings SO much that I decided to get ordained to be able to perform your ceremony!  So if you already have a photographer, I would still LOVE to be a part of your special day by being the one to marry you! 

About Me

MINISTER TRACY HOUSTON

I am a busy mom of three, a loving wife of almost 18 years and a successful family & wedding photographer. Having photographed many, MANY weddings over the years, I have witnessed couples say their vows and decided that I wanted to be a part of their journey even more! I would be so honored to work with you to customize your day and create a ceremony that you will never forget! Your ceremony should be a reflection of who you are as a couple, your personalities, your wants and desires for your future together. It is very important to choose an officiant who you "click with" (photography pun intended!)

I have lots of contacts with other vendors in the business and would love to share them with you to make your wedding day a breeze! Call or message me today and let's talk about all things WEDDING!!!

Holiday Fees

While I understand that holidays can often be the same day that you want to celebrate your love, there are certain holidays that I am not available since I have a family with young kids at home. I am absolutely NOT AVAILABLE on Halloween or Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. If you choose to get married on another holiday, a fee of $100 will be added to your cost. Valentine's Day is still a popular day and best to book well in advance.

I can also work with the associate photographer on a custom package.

Plan Your Beach Wedding

  Southwest Florida is a PERFECT spot for your Destination Beach Wedding! There are many spots that make for a beautiful backdrop for your vows to be shared while your toes are in the sand. 


Did you know?! YOU DO NOT NEED A PERMIT FOR WEDDINGS THAT INCLUDE PARTIES OF 6 PEOPLE OR LESS! You can simply walk onto the beach and having a short and sweet ceremony for under six people, no reservations or fees involved. The only thing you need to be sure you take care of is legal parking (we have tons of beach access here in Naples with ample parking BUT it does get crowded here during "season" so prepare ahead of time!)  


*You cannot block beach access, reserve any beach area or obstruct the lawful use of the beach by anyone else. You cannot have live music or amplified sound and cannot set out chairs, standards or other fixtures which might obstruct the use of the beach. Great for an impromptu, informal wedding with just a few friends or relatives, unacceptable for a major function. 


For ceremonies of six or more you must follow a reservation process--be 100% sure to do this so that we do not get asked to leave during your ceremony! Please contact the staff at  239-213-7120 or 239-252-4000 for more information, a list of locations and to reserve the space.

Unity Ceremony

A symbolic ritual woven into your wedding ceremony marking the blending of two lives into one, or two families into one. There are lots of ways to do this! There is sand, wine, candles time capsules and more! I would love to chat about how traditional or how creative you want to be for your wedding  day.

I DO

The only words you NEED to say in your ceremony are I DO. The rest is completely up to you! Choose the elements that are the most important to you and make it as personal as you want. Include funny short stories, tear-jerker moments and everything in between to have your guests talking about your wedding for years! Choosing the right person to tell your love story and to marry you is SO important. I hope you will want that person to be me! Message or call me today to talk about what vision you have for your wedding day!
