Terms of service

Last updated 3 October 2026

OfficiantScript is operated by Archelaus LLC (“we”, “us”). By buying or using it you agree to these terms, and the checkout page says so beside the button you pay with. If you do not agree, do not use the service. Using the service after these terms change does not move an earlier purchase onto the new dispute terms; those apply only as the Disputes section below states.

What we provide

We provide a one-time purchase that generates a ceremony or service script and the accompanying documents — a run-sheet, cue cards, a checklist, and a duties sheet — from answers you supply, and a web-based editor for changing them.

What we are not

We do not provide legal advice. The marriage-license duties sheet is informational only, drawn from published state guidance, and it names its source. Requirements change and counties differ from their states. You must confirm every detail with the office that issued the license — which is a county clerk in some states and a probate judge, a town clerk, or a register of deeds in others. We are not responsible for a marriage that is not properly recorded.

We do not ordain anyone, and we do not verify that any person has legal authority to solemnize a marriage — confirming the officiant’s authority, with the office that issued the license, is your responsibility. We make no representation that any ceremony conducted using our materials is legally valid. On the funeral side, we do not provide funeral-director services and the logistics sheet is a general description of common practice, not instructions for a specific funeral home.

The content you supply

You are responsible for what you tell us about other people. You confirm that you have the right to provide it and that it is accurate. Our generation is constrained to work only from the facts you supply, and does not invent details about the people named — but you are responsible for reviewing the content before it is used, and, where you pass it to someone else to deliver, for making sure that person reviews it too. The person who delivers the ceremony may not be a party to these terms; that responsibility stays with you.

Do not submit content you do not have the right to use, including text still in copyright. Where a reading is under copyright we list it by title and author only and do not reproduce it; obtaining a copy is yours to do.

Your access

A purchase gives you access for 12 months from the date of purchase. Access is by a link we email you rather than an account. That link is a credential: anyone holding it can read and edit your ceremony. Share it deliberately, and use the revoke control in the editor if it travels further than you meant. We are not liable for access obtained through a link you shared.

At the end of the access window your ceremony content and rendered files are deleted. About 21 days before then we email you so you can download everything. If that email cannot be sent we keep trying until the window closes, but the deletion happens on schedule either way.

Price and refunds

The price is $39, charged once, at the time of purchase. Payments are processed by Stripe; we do not store your card details.

If you are not happy with your purchase, for any reason, email us within 30 days of payment and we will refund you in full. You do not need to give a reason or complete any form.

Acceptable use

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability arising out of or relating to the service is limited to the amount you paid us. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss arising from a ceremony, service, or filing that did not go as intended. These limits do not apply to liability that the law does not allow us to limit or exclude, or to liability for our gross negligence or intentional misconduct.

The service is provided “as is”. We do not warrant that generated content will be free of error, suitable for any particular occasion, or acceptable to any officiating body, religious authority, or government office.

Disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law rules.

Any dispute that cannot be resolved by contacting us first will be settled by binding individual arbitration rather than in court. The arbitration is administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Any hearing will be held by video or phone, on written submissions alone, or in the county where you live, whichever you choose. Either of us may instead bring an individual claim in small-claims court.

You and Archelaus LLC each waive the right to bring or take part in a class action, class arbitration, or other representative action. Any claim that is not arbitrated will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York, except that either of us may bring an individual claim in any small-claims court that has jurisdiction. Nothing here removes a consumer-protection right you have where you live.

The arbitration, class-waiver, and hearing terms in this section apply to purchases made under revision 2026-10-03.2 of these terms or a later one. A purchase made under an earlier version keeps the dispute terms that applied when it was made. The small-claims options in this section, the limits on our liability cap above, and the notice to California residents below apply to every purchase.

Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be posted here with a new date, and will not apply retroactively to a purchase already made.
