WHAT IS THE WEDDING CEREMONY ?

The ceremony breaks down as follows:

* Processional - Bridal party enters the room

* Greeting - Officiant greets the guests

* Address - Officiant’s statements to the couple
and guests on the meaning of marriage

* Declaration of Consent - These are the “I do’s”
whereby each assert that they enter into the
marriage by their own choice

* Vows - Cornerstone of the ceremony in which the
Bride and Groom address each other and promise
to fulfill their roles as husband and wife

* Readings/Music/Rituals - if desired

* Ring exchange - Traditional act of exchanging
Wedding rings

* Declaration of marriage - Officiant pronounces
the Bride and Groom as husband and wife -
usually followed by a kiss

* Processional - Wedding party leaves the room

Keep in mind that the Wedding Ceremony is a formula that can be changed to your preferences. You can write your own vows, delete whole sections, move certain parts around, and decide to include music and readings wherever you feel is appropriate. You can stray as far from the charted course as desired, or take the traditional approach.
