Host: Can my officiant recommend other vendors in this area? Bill Cochran: Yes, I believe any officiant should be able to recommend other vendors that they have got to know as they have rubbed shoulders with them during weddings. Whatever area you are in, your officiant will know the ones that he likes working with and he has his reasons why he likes working with them. In my particular situation, I belong to the Association of Wedding Professionals which many officiants belong to different organizations and in that association we get to know the other vendors real well and build friendships with them and just build a level of comfort in knowing that we really can trust the work that they are doing and since you are going through this for the first time, it's tough for you to know well, who really can I count on, who can I trust and hopefully, you can rely on our word on some of those things.

    Change can be one of the main causes of stress. So many tend to avoid change in order to avoid pain and anxiety. Yet profound unhappiness can ensue if one stays paralyzed in stagnation. Going after one's life purpose will invitably involve change. If living in your life purpose is what you desire then moving step by step into change is what is needed. Staying present and out of the the future worrying state will assist. Meditation and visalization are wonderful tools to transition in a healthy and calm way.
