There are as many different wedding ceremonies as there are couples getting married. Each ceremony can be individualized for your wedding. Couples sometimes write their own vows, or they write something they want to say to each other or to those gathered around them.

I will work with you to write a ceremony as individual as you are. This is a special occasion and we can help make it one of a kind.

The first place to start is to review the Traditional Order of Service which explains the different aspects of the Wedding Ceremony, such as the Statement of Purpose, Opening Prayer, Charge to the Couple, Declaration of Consent, Presentation of the Bride, Exchange of Vows, Exchange of Rings, Pronouncement or Declaration, Wedding Prayer, Blessing, Presentation of the Couple Newly Married.

    The Order of Service breaks down the ceremony. You can eliminate or expand on each area as you like.
