Planning Your Wedding Ceremony Part 2

Our First Planning Meeting (Allow up to one & a half hours)

At our first meeting we will discuss what you would like to have in your marriage ceremony. If you do not live in the local area, we can do the first part of the planning by email and/or post.

I will listen carefully to what you tell me and also offer you some ideas to consider, including a choice of wording for each part of your ceremony.You may wish to have a very relaxed ceremony or you may want a particularly formal or traditional ceremony. All of these things are possible. I can offer you many options to reflect your personalities and values in life.

For your marriage vows (promises) You may choose from the promises I provide, or “cut & paste” or you may prefer to write your own. Your marriage vows do not have to be the same as each others, but they must be what you yourself wish to promise.

If any of the following documents are not immediately available, it’s OK to make a separate appointment to bring them to me, but it must be well before your wedding.
