About
A former family law attorney turned mediator, Carole Gold now writes and performs wedding ceremonies through Weddings by GOLD as an ordained non-denominational minister serving couples across South Carolina and North Carolina. She says her interest in officiating grew directly out of years spent helping families resolve conflict, and her site carries eight five-star reviews from couples she has married.
Three ceremony formats are offered: Intimate Elopements for a small, private vow exchange; Signature Ceremonies, a fully customized ceremony built around the couple's own relationship rather than a standard script; and Vow Renewals for couples marking an existing marriage. Add-on services, such as extra ceremony preparation or guidance, are scoped and priced during a first conversation, and every option starts with a discovery conversation before any booking decision is made.
Weddings by GOLD does not publish set ceremony pricing; couples start by submitting their date and location through the site's "Check Your Date" form to confirm availability and get a quote. The business is reachable by email at contact@carolegold.com and appears in local search results as a Spartanburg-area marriage celebrant.
