“Our wedding officiant was truly amazing. Her kindness and understanding made the entire experience unforgettable. I encountered a few last-minute issues that caused a slight delay, but she handled everything with such grace and patience, alleviating any stress I had.
“Melissa was fantastic to work with from start to finish. She was responsive, professional, and always willing to answer our questions throughout the planning process. She took the time to get to know us and created a personalized ceremony with custom vows that felt meaningful and authentic.

Where we meet you
Anywhere in Springfield You want to stand
Smooches can meet you at a courthouse, city hall, venue, private residence, or another location of your choice.
What that looks like
A courthouse The simple civil ceremony, the license filled out and submitted, in about ten to twenty minutes. This is what The Sign & Go was built for.
A city hall Room for whoever came with you. Repeat-after-me vows mean nobody has to have memorized anything on the way over.
A venue We arrive for the ceremony itself. On The Signature Smooch we can also help keep things on schedule, so the ceremony starts on time.
A private residence Backyard ceremonies are one of the things The “I Do” was written for: the real wedding moment, at home, without the traditional wedding circus.
