Agreement


Officiant agrees to perform the requested ceremony on the
aforementioned date and time at  the named location. The
Officiant is guaranteed to be a legally ordained minister , fully
qualified to officiate at wedding ceremonies in Missouri and
Kansas. The Officiant will arrive between 15--30 minutes
prior to the start time of the ceremony and remain until all
services are rendered as per request. If the client requires
additional services or extra time that are not mentioned in this
contract, such as additional time or meetings or rehearsals,
there shall be additional charges to those set forth in this
contract, but this will be at the discretion of the Officiant.
The date and time and charges of any additional meetings or
rehearsals shall be agreed upon in advance, according to the
availability of the Officiant, and added as a codicil to this
contract at any time.


Officiant shall arrive at the following address or location  
---------------------------- at or
before-------------AM/PM  on the -------- day of
----------- 20---------- for the rehearsal and will depart

Officiant shall arrive at the following address or l;ocation
------------------------ ---------------------------
at or before  ------------AM/PM  on  the --------
dayof -----------20---------- for the wedding/commitment
ceremony and will depart no later than
-------------AM/PM to ensure compliance with his/her
overall schedule. The Bridal Couple understands that they
must adhere to these times, but they may be extended at
Officiant's sole discretion if Officiant's schedule permits.

If ceremony begins later than 15 minutes beyond the
scheduled time, and it is not the fault of the Officiant, then
client shall be charged $25 per half hour or any part of that
time that the  event is held up. This charge is expected to be
paid before the event begins, in cash only, or Officiant will
not perform ceremony and all fees paid by client are forfeited.
Also, should the ceremony begin later than scheduled due to
issues beyond the control of the Officiant, clients agree that
the contents of  the ceremony/script may be spontaneously
edited for time, as needed, solely at the discretion of the
Officiant.

"Editing" may include the deletion of any wording, the
elimination or alteration of any elements and/or readings, the
substitution of wording/elements, etc., as the Officiant deems
necessary with the sole exception of those sections that may be
required by law, or the ceremony may have to be rescheduled.
In either eventuality, the Officiant will not be held liable for
any costs of the ceremony or reception, or damages of any
kind.   If the client wishes to void this clause, and reserve the
Officiant's services for the entire day so that he/she will not
schedule any other weddings and will be available in case of
delays, etc., there will be an additional charge of $250 from
the hour of 10:00 am until 5 pm. From 5:00 pm until 9:00 pm
the charge shall be $350, and this must be agreed upon
according to the availability of the Officiant at the time of
reserving the date, as the Officiant's availability for the entire
day may change at any given future date.


Upon signing this contract and receiving the  
NON--REFUNDABLE deposit/retainer fee, Angel M
Enterprises will secure your requested date and time on its
calendar. The remainder of the balance, $ ------- is due no
later than two weeks prior to the date of the ceremony unless
other arrangements have been made. Payment may be made in
full----------- at time of booking, if client wishes to do so.
Payments shall be made by cash, check or money order. If
you pay by check and it is returned as "non---sufficient
funds," the returned check fee is $35 and further arrangements  
to pay for services shall be made in cash. If not paid in cash,
the Officient will not show up to perform the ceremony.

If, for ,ANY reason, the Officiant cannot perform the
services ordered, due to illness, hospitalization, auto accident
or transportation breakdown/disruption or any other unforseen
incapacitation or cause of non--arrival on day of ceremony,
Angel M Enterprises will make every attempt to provide for
a substitute Officiant who can perform the ceremony. If we
are unable to do so, ALL monies paid to Angel M, including
the deposit, will be refunded.
In any event, Angel M Enterprises and Rev. Mary
Howell  shall NOT be held liable for any compensation or
any damages due to  non--performance of any
ceremony/function resulting from such incapacitation,
non--arrival,,late arrival errors or omissions of any type.
Angel M is not responsible for Acts of God or other
calamity that may result in the cancellation of the event. The
clients and all their attendees at their event agree to hold
Angel M Enterprises and  Rev. Mary Howell or
employees and independent contractors, harmless from any
liability resulting from acts or omissions, all claims, loss or
damage to persons or venue property arising out of or
connected with performing said services.

The clients understand and acknowledge that they are
financially responsible for any damage by them or any person
in attendance at the event contracted for.. The clients assume
full liability for any and all mishaps. Clients also agree to
take care of reservations at venue unless Angel M's services
as Wedding Planner are contracted for and agreed upon
beforehand. Clients also agree to have a backup plan in case
of inclement weather and the alternate location must not be
more than 15-20 minutes driving time away or Officiant may
charge additional fees, especially if there is another service
booked that day and Officiant's time is limited. This is at
his/her discretion.

Events cancelled within 30 days of event date  (                     )
will be subject to a 50% cancellation fee. This  does not
include the  NON--REFUNDABLE retainer fee. Events
cancelled within 14 days of event date  (                        )  will
be subject to a 100% cancellation fee. These  cancellation fees
are not a penalty but rather shall be considered compensation
to Officiant for loss of other business opportunities. This
forfeiture shall not apply if Officiant is able to secure another
booking for said date. These cancellation fees, excluding the
NON  REFUNDABLE retainer fee, also do not apply if
either bride or groom become seriously ill, or in an accident or,
as in the case of military personnel, who are ordered  to report
to their duty stations earlier than expected, and proof of any of
above must be shown to Officiant.

The client has been informed and fully understands that if a
valid marriage license is not presented to the Officiant
BEFORE the ceremony is performed, the Officiant cannot
perform a legally valid marriage ceremony. Any ceremony
performed without the presence of the license will be symbolic
only, and will not result in the clients' legal status as husband
and wife. In the case of same sex ceremonies clients
understand that their ceremony is always symbolic since a
marriage between same gender is not recognized by either
Missouri or Kansas. If Bridal Couple wishes to file the
license themselves this should be made know to Officiant at
time of booking, and a waiver signed stating that they are
taking responsibility for the filing.

Clients agree to pay extra fees to Officiant for travel time and
fuel costs as agreed upon at time of booking. Clients agree to
provide all materials for specialized ceremonies, such as
Unity Candles, matches, sand and container for sand
ceremony; flowers and vase for Rose Ceremony, etc., unless
agreed upon by all parties at time of booking, in which case
there will be extra fees for materials and time provided by
Officiant..

If, after reserving your date with Angel M Enterprises, you
choose to change the date, time, ( by 30 minutes or more) or
location ( by 30 minutes driving time or more for the
Officiant) for your ceremony the following will apply:  You
will be entering into a new contract with Rev. Mary
Howell, and certain things may change, imcluding, but not
limited to:

(1) Price may change, based on additional travel time for the
Officiant. In addition, if the change is such that Rev. Mary
Howell is not available for your new date and time, you may
be released from further obligation under this contract. In any
case, the retainer fee is NON-REFUNDABLE
