My husband and I are partners in ministry.  We're both Third Degree Wiccans,  fully ordained.  This means, among other things, that we are legally authorized to perform weddings.  But that's just one of the services we provide in our role as clergy.

    * We teach.  We offer "Adventure Wicca 101" classes once a year, usually sometime between Samhain and Yule.
    * We offer lectures.  We will talk to any group, large or small, about any aspect of Wicca.  (Of course, we can't be specific about any Tradition of Wicca but our own.)
    * We present workshops.  They're more interactive than lectures; there are always hand-outs, and sometimes, activities!
    * We conduct "demonstration rituals."  These are basic Wiccan Circles, cast authentically and explained at every step.
    * We conduct passage rites.  This is where weddings come in -- Wiccans call them "handfastings," by the way, because a main feature of the ritual is the fastening of the bride's and groom's hands to symbolize the fastening of their hearts and souls.  Passage rites also include
        ~ Wiccanings (pledging faith to an infant or child, not pledging the baby to the faith)
        ~ Mannings and Womanings (coming of age rites)
        ~ Dedications (at two levels prior to Initiation)
        ~ Initiations (under some circumstances)
        ~ Handpartings (spiritual divorces)
        ~ Queenings and Kingings (maturity rites)
        ~ Milestone Recognitions (designed for seriously special occasions)
        ~ Sagings and Cronings (eldering rites)
        ~ Requiems (memorial rites)
    * We also offer consultations about Wicca and Neo-Paganism generally.  These are wide-ranging.  If, for example, the human resources or diversity officer at work needs cluing in, we can offer a tailored presentation.  If you're wondering about the efficacy or ethics of using magic in your life, we can discuss that, too.
    * We are available as spiritual counselors to talk about various of life's challenges from a religious perspective.  (We are not doctors, psychologists, or therapists.  We are thealogians and kind people with open minds and hearts.)
    * In our capacity as elders of the Adventure Tradition, and mentors to the Circle Between the Worlds (a Dedicant training group), we host a few Sabbat camping trips every year.  By invitation, these and some of the Sabbats held at the Traditionstead are open to guests.

Education .... Passage Rites .... Public and Private Ritual

    Consistently with ministers of other faiths, we don't charge for classes, consultations or spiritual counseling.  We do charge for passage rites.  How much depends on the circumstances; going rates are between $200 and $500.
    When we give workshops at festivals and gatherings, we generally charge expenses (travel, room and board) and a negotiable fee.
