Prison Weddings

Maryland Prison Weddings

Over the last 12 years I have had the honor of officiating almost 100 weddings at prison facilities in Maryland. Although the circumstances aren't ideal, the ceremonies themselves are heartfelt and very moving. I have performed weddings at the various Jessup, Hagerstown and Cumberland, MD correctional facilities and know the procedures well. I have made connections with many of the chaplains and will work closely with them to help get your request to be married approved. Please understand that the ability to get married is a priviledge that each inmate must earn, and so a request made does not mean an automatic approval! I have a toll-free home number to make it easier to reach me. Please don't hesitate to call me at 1-800-549-9578 with your information.
