Miseducation of Love: Frequently Asked Questions

Miseducation of Love: Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Miseducation of Love is a thoughtfully designed ceremony offering created to make meaningful, professionally led wedding ceremonies more accessible. It centers honesty, transparency, and care—while honoring the fact that couples come from different financial realities, life circumstances, and support systems.

  • No. This offering is not about cutting corners or providing a lesser experience. Every ceremony—regardless of tier—is approached with the same professionalism, preparation, and respect. The difference lies in scope and structure, not quality or care.

  • Sliding-scale pricing allows couples to select a ceremony tier that aligns with their current financial reality. It operates on trust and self-selection, giving couples the autonomy to choose the option that best reflects their circumstances at the time they are getting married.

  • This offering is designed for couples who:

    • Value intentional, personalized ceremonies

    • Are navigating financial limitations, life transitions, or systemic barriers

    • Want a professionally led ceremony without unnecessary extras

    • Believe accessibility and dignity should coexist

    It is not limited to any one type of couple, but it is intentionally structured to prioritize equity and care.

  • Absolutely not! All ceremonies receive the same level of intention, professionalism, and presence. Tier selection does not impact how seriously your ceremony is taken or how much care and effort goes into it.

  • Yes. The Miseducation of Love is designed for intimate ceremonies. Guest limits vary by tier and are clearly outlined so couples can choose what best fits their vision and needs.

  • Each tier includes a legally valid ceremony and professional officiation. Inclusions may vary slightly by tier, but the focus remains on:

    • A grounded, meaningful ceremony

    • Clear structure and flow

    • Support around vows and ceremony elements

    • A calm, respectful presence on your wedding day

    Specific details are outlined within each tier description.

  • Availability is intentionally limited. Only a small number of ceremonies are booked each month to ensure every couple receives the care and attention they deserve.

  • Ceremony tiers are primarily based on ceremony size and scope—such as guest count and overall structure. Couples should first select the tier that best fits the type of ceremony they’re planning.

    Within that tier, couples may then choose the price point that aligns with their current financial reality. No documentation is required. This model is rooted in trust, integrity, and the understanding that accessibility looks different for every couple.

  • It all starts with a vibe check—just a relaxed chat to get to know you and see if we are a good fit. From there, we dive into your love story, quirks, and must-haves to craft a ceremony that gives you all the feels. Expect some fun prompts, deep convos, and maybe even a few happy tears along the way.

  • Payment structure depends on the ceremony tier and how far in advance the ceremony is booked.

    The Marriage License Signing (Tier One) is required to be paid in full at the time of booking, due to its limited scope and scheduling structure.

    For higher-tier ceremonies, payment plans may be available depending on the booking date and time frame. In these cases, payment schedules are structured based on how far out the ceremony is scheduled and must be completed prior to the ceremony date.

    Details are discussed during booking to ensure expectations are clear and manageable for both parties.

  • For Tier One (Marriage License Signing), included travel is limited to Brooklyn and Manhattan below 96th Street.

    For all other tiers, travel is included within 15 miles of the designated service area.

    Ceremonies located outside the included travel range may be subject to additional travel fees.

  • That’s completely okay. Couples whose needs extend beyond the scope of The Miseducation of Love may be better served by standard ceremony offerings or customized packages. Guidance can be provided to help determine the best path forward.
