	Your Wedding Ceremony Planning the Ceremony… Your wedding ceremony is special and unique to you. When designing your ceremony, you’ll want to consider your marriage expectations and the commitment you hold for each other. Consider how you will present these to each other and to your family and friends during the ceremony. Perhaps you have anecdotes from your time together that demonstrate the ideals you hold for your relationship. Perhaps you’ve seen the virtues you would like to have in your own marriage demonstrated in family members’ or friends’ marriages. You may wish to bring poetry, scripture, and other readings that have touched you into the wedding ceremony. Would you prefer a formal or casual wedding? Wedding styles range from large gala events to small family gatherings and everything in between! It can be solemn or bachanal, celtic or medieval, highly religious or purely secular. Your ceremony can be crafted to fit with any wedding theme. Who will be participating in the wedding ceremony? Consider who will be witnesses and whether your children will participate in the ceremony. Portions of the ceremony celebrating the creation of a new family can further strengthen the bond between a couple and their children. Consider what you would like to say to your children regarding each as a gift in your own lives. Of course, more questions will occur to you as we create the ceremony you desire. As your Minister, I will strive to deliver a meaningful and unforgettable ceremony that will enhance your celebration of life!
