Who Will Marry Us?
On the day you stand together as Bride and Groom to take your
wedding vows, you will also have a Wedding Officiant with you.
For marriage vows to be truly memorable, you need just the
right person at the altar with you, a wedding officiant willing to
create the perfect ceremony that captures your personalities
and beliefs.
Standing together at the Altar is very much an altered state.
Some brides and some grooms can’t remember their wedding
ceremony after all is said and done. Some laugh nervously,
some weep emotionally, some wait to speak, some pray they will
be able to speak when the time to speak arrives.
Each year over sixty couples will find their perfect wedding
officiant in Rev. Ema Drouillard of Ceremony Way; as she
becomes an integral part of making a very special day even more
unforgettable.
“Just a couple of quick “I do’s!” will do. We would like our
ceremony to be meaningful, memorable. Not too long and not
too short.” So we begin the inquiry as to what will be said at the
altar, what will be meaningful. We discuss belief, faith and
practice.
The tone of the ceremony whether; religious, non-religious,
spiritual, non-denominational or inter-faith. What traditional
elements or cultural traditions may be important to join
together?
We speak about what will take place within the ceremony itself.
Would they each like to speak their vows to each other or would
they rather take vows by responding? Would they like to write
their own vows? Will they exchange rings with one another?
What rites may be integrated; the unity candle, wine ceremony,
grain ceremony or flower rite?
Will the guest be incorporated into the ceremony or witness the
ceremony? Will there be a reading in the ceremony or a song
sung? Would they like a dove release as part of their ceremony?
What becomes abundantly evident is that to have a wedding
officiant fully engaged, open to suggestions, understanding and
supportive through out the whole process will make all the
difference in your memories. An officiant willing to incorporate
whatever you want, religion or no religion, spiritual or non-
denominational, in line with your belief, understanding exactly
what you are talking about and open to the fact. A Wedding
Officiant with the agenda to have your ceremony reflect the
uniqueness of you.
Add an eloquent speaker, with a great presence and stress can
actually be eliminated on your wedding day as you stand
together at your altar. Together you can create a whole
ambiance and have a glorious time, sharing the memories for a
lifetime.
