    On averge I would take 15-20 hours with each couple to prepare and perform their ceremony. This includes:
    

• Meetings with the couple - anywhere between 5-8 times depending on the couples requirements - this includes the initial meeting, rehearsal and wedding ceremony.
• emails - often many dozens over a period of time
• phone calls - numerous
• writing the ceremony draft
• changes to the ceremony - this can often take anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 hours depending on the amount of changes required by the couple.
• paperwork - preparing the legal paperwork
• on site rehearsal  - this can often take longer than the ceremony itself
• the wedding day - including travelling this can take anywhere from 2 hours minimum up to 4-6 hours. The ceremony itself usually takes around 1/2 hour.  (I always arrive at least 1/2 hour before the expected commencement time)
• Registering the legal paperwork after the wedding
