Have Lover, Will Travel

Marriage celebrants handle the paperwork and the poetry. Have Lover, Will Travel brings both to Brooklyn couples who want a ceremony that feels as unique as their story. This women-owned service operates from a fourth-floor walk-up at 211 Kingsland Ave #4R, Brooklyn, NY 11222—a corner of Greenpoint where brick storefronts give way to quiet residential blocks.

Elopements, vow renewals, and full wedding scripts are all part of the offering; the only requirement is that the couple shows up ready to say something true. The neighborhood itself—with its mix of old warehouses and new cafes—often inspires the tone: intimate, unpretentious, and slightly offbeat. No two ceremonies sound alike, and that’s by design.

To book a time that fits between subway schedules and work deadlines, call (804) 512-1757; the same number answers questions about permits, timelines, and whether you can legally marry on a rooftop. For directions to the office or the nearest park where you might exchange rings, pull up the map. Bring a pen—you’ll need it for the license.
