MESSAGE FROM PASTOR PAM: Please keep in mind that my home is located in an outdoor country setting
and is susceptible to all the wonderful sights and sounds of nature that make this the relaxing tranquil location that my
couples have come to love and enjoy. I do everythng within my power to ensure that your visit is an enjoyable one and strive
to make your wedding ABSOLUTELY perfect in every way. However, as diligent as I am, some things are beyond my control and
I hope you will please understand and not be disturbed by occasional elemental weather changes and unexpected sounds of nature;
i.e., wind, rain, dogs barking, traffic, etc. Weather conditions are unpredictable and as all of us know, they can change at any time. In the event of
bad weather you are always welcome to use my living room as an alternative location for your ceremony providing you have 10
or less guests. I also have access to a local church if you would like to hold your ceremony there. If neitiher of these are
viable alternatives, it is suggested that a safe and secure second option be arranged in order that your ceremony can proceed
as scheduled. If a second option is not secured and your ceremony has to be canceled, I will be happy to transfer any monies
paid to another date and time of your choosing provided that my schedule permits and I am available to perform your ceremony
at that time.

Things
You Need to Know Prior to Your Countryside Wedding Ceremony?
* I officiate
all of my own ceremonies and take great pride in the fact that each and every one is delivered with "heart"
and "passion".
* Ceremonies held at my home are considered Christian Worship
Services and are officiated tenderly, reverently and respectfully.
* My only requirements
are that couples truly love each other, that they understand the importance and sanctity of marriage and that they have a
sincere desire to be united as Husband and Wife under God's Blessing. That's it!
*
We are proud of the quiet, serene atmosphere that is so much a part of our surroundings and are happy to share that beauty
with you and your guests.
* There is no more lovely scenery than that which
nature provides and we make every effort to make our wedding areas beautiful. No further decorating is necessary, but you
may bring your own decorations, if desired.
* If you would like to use your own decorations,
they must be removed promptly following your ceremony and everything put back the way it was when you arrived.
* I allow one hour per ceremony and ask that you and your guests plan to arrive no sooner than 15
minutes prior to the start of your ceremony.
* Please come
dressed and ready as changing facilities are not available.
* All couples
must present a valid West Virginia Marriage License prior to the start of their Ceremony (Does not apply to Vow Renewals or
Commitment Ceremonies)
* Any Ceremony performed without a valid West Virginia Marriage License
will be considered a Commitment Ceremony only and will not hold legal status.
* We
are happy to include photos at your choice of wedding location with your Countryside Wedding Ceremony package. Photos will be delivered digitally, by email within one day of your ceremony.
* No Personal or Professional Photography and/or Videography is permitted on the property. [NO EXCEPTIONS]
* Cameras and Personal Video Recording Devices are not permitted on the property [NO EXCEPTIONS]
* Telecommunication devices; cell phones, blackberries, and such must be turned off prior
to the start of the ceremony. [NO EXCEPTIONS]
* Booking is first come first serve and dates will be held with a 50% NONREFUNDABLE deposit with final payment
being due two weeks prior to the ceremony.
* If by chance you find it necessary to change the date of your ceremony, all monies will be fully
transferrable to the new date, provided that my schedule permits and I am available to perfrom your service at that time.
* Short-Notice and Last-Minute Ceremonies are always welcome. Weddings booked within
a 24 hour window may incur additional fees.
*
Guest count is limited to no more than 20 people.
* Your wedding is a special moment in your life and if you would like to
have your father or other designated person walk you down the aisle, I encourage you to do that.
* I welcome the opportunity for you to share the enjoyment of your
"first dance as husband and wife" immediately following your ceremony. I have a wide selection of songs and if you
choose one that I don't have, I will be happy to download it.
*
Due to the fact that I only allocate one hour per ceremony, I do not host wedding receptions at my home.
* We take great effort to ensure that your experience at my home
is an enjoyable one and that your needs are met in every way.
* That being said, I ask that you please be respectful of the fact that this IS my personal residence and not a public
venue.
* By appointment only. .
NOTE: My weddings are scheduled to allow
one hour per ceremony and it is encouraged that couples make every effort to arrive at least 10 minutes prior to the ceremony
start time. When the ceremony does not begin promptly at the hour it is scheduled, it cuts into the next couple's
time and does not allow them the experience they expect and deserve. That being said, there will be a $50 per 15
minute late fee for weddings that do not start on time. This fee is geared to protect my couples
from being inconsiderate of one another and also to allow me to do the best job possible in providing
a beautiful, memorable wedding day. If more than 15 minutes late I reserve the right to cut out part
of the ceremony to compensate for the time difference. I do everything within my power to make your
ceremony perfect and starting the wedding on schedule helps that to happen. Thank you for your consideration
and I appreciate your understanding.

INDOORS BY GLOWING CANDLELIGHT AND GAS BURNING FIREPLACE
|
Outdoor weddings are performed at my
home during the months of May through October, with exceptions being welcomed on a case by case basis. During all other months
and in the event of incliment weather, weddings may be officiated inside my log home. And, if you find that you would prefer
to pledge your vows inside, rather than at my Tranquility Garden Gazebo, that would come as no surprise as many couples find
it a welcome alternative. My gas-burning log fireplace and candlelit setting not only provide the perfect romantic location
for your winter wedding or vow renewal, many find that it is the perfect retreat from a hot summer day as they relax with
a glass of iced cold tea or homemade lemonade. As you cozy into the warmth of my living room you will be overcome with
a sense of "down-home" country comfort, complete with bear rug and primitive decor. I have no doubt that you, too,
will immediately feel right at home. You are encouraged to invite your family and friends, but because of space limitations,
it is asked that you please limit your guest count to no more than 10 people. We invite you to give us a call at (304) 472-0296
to set up your wedding date. *Add-Ons Extra .

TRANQUILITY GARDEN AND WORSHIP CENTER
|
I would be honored to officiate your marriage ceremony
at my Tranquility Garden Gazebo. The calming solitude of the Garden is enhanced by wildlife, sounds of birds chirping and
all the wonderful things that the countryside is known for. The Gazebo's platform, which is accented by a beautiful cross
inlay, is made even more beautiful by joined gold wedding rings that immediately give the perfect sense of two becoming one.
The really great thing about this location is that it's use isn't confined to the daytime hours. After dark, it magically
transforms itself into an OH SO ROMANTIC nighttime wedding venue when surrounded by the soft light of tiki-torches and candles.
When you find the one you want to marry, your wedding ceremony should be special and I do everything within my power to make
it that way. If a quiet, peaceful atmosphere surrounded by the beauty of nature sounds like what you've
been looking for, give me a call and together we will make it happen. I am passionate about love and marriage and I am passionate
about what I do. Ask me about availability for "your" ceremony; it would be my sincere pleasure to work with you.
Always know that you are welcome to invite your family and friends, but because of space limitations, it is asked that you
please limit your guest count to no more than 10 people. We invite you to give us a call at (304) 472-0296 to set up
your wedding date. *Add-Ons Extra. .

ROSE ARBOR
|
In addition to my Tranquility Garden Gazebo and the
fireplace weddings that I offer inside my log home, I also have many other beautiful areas where you might choose to pledge
your vows. Each has its own special beauty and whether it be this lovely rose arbor accented by the American Flag in the background
or a quiet spot in front of the rhododendron or hydrangea bushes, I would be honored to officiate your marriage ceremony
at my home. You are welcome to invite your family and friends, but because of space limitations, it is asked that you please
limit your guest count to no more than 10 people. We invite you to
give us a call at (304) 472-0296 to set up your wedding date. *Add-Ons Extra. .
|
|
SERENITY COVE
|
Another popular locatiion is this beautiful white rose
trellis. As with each of my other locations, it has a beauty all its own. Located in our tranquil Serenity Cove, the trellis
sits quietly between a weeping cherry tree and the lush greenery that surrounds it. It is also covered with red roses and
accented by two adoring angels perched directly in front of it. This location provides the perfect spot for an elopment or
small, intimate wedding. I would be honored to officiate your marriage ceremony at my home and would love the opportunity
to talk with you about your plans. You are welcome to invite your family and friends, but because of space limitations, it
is asked that you please limit your guest count to no more than 10 people. We invite you to give
us a call at (304) 472-0296 to set up your wedding date. *Add-Ons Extra. .
|
|
FOREST GLEN
|
One of the most special places on my
property to pledge your vows is our Forest Glen. Situate in a secluded woodsy cove, just below my house, sits an arbor surrounded
by trees, lush greenery and colorful flowers. In the Springtime you can enjoy the smell of magnolia and lilac, in the Summer
the beautiful hydrangea and bleeding hearts; and, starting in October, the Fall colors show off their glorious splendor as
they accent the crisp autumn breeze. I would be honored to officiate your marriage ceremony
at this or one of the other beautiful locations at my home. You are welcome to invite your family and friends, but because
of space limitations, it is asked that you please limit your guest count to no more than 10 people. We
invite you to give us a call at (304) 472-0296 to set up your wedding date. *Add-Ons
Extra. .

. . BLOSSOMS EDGE . .
|
. . . We
are excited to announce the addition of "Blossom's Edge" to our venue. Graced with a backdrop of white wisteria
and miniature multi-colored pink and peach rose buds, Blossom's Edge joins our "Serenity Cove" and "Forest
Glen" locations. Blossom's Edge is absolutely exquisite and promises to be one of our most popular locations.

PASTOR PAM'S COUNTRY PASTURE

. Are you dreaming of an authentic
Country Style Ceremony but don't know where to start? Pastor Pam's Pasture Ceremony offers you the perfect solution. Pledge
your vows in the midst of a quiet country farm setting surrounded by lush fields and all the sights and wonders that a country
themed wedding is known for. Your ceremony will be love-inspired, rich in meaning and full of all the sentiment your heart
can muster. Oh, and don't forget... we will be happy to take your wedding photos on the old tyme farm tractor or in front
of the "not so traditional" arbor. With this package you are guaranteed to have "fun" country memories
to last a lifetime; and, the best part of all is that it's affordable! You are encouraged to invite your family and friends,
but because of space limitations, it is asked that you please limit your guest count to no more than 50 people. This is a
popular location so we invite you to give us a call at (304) 472-0296 to secure your wedding date today. *Add-Ons Extra. ***
