NON-RELIGIOUS WEDDING CEREMONIES
The list of ceremonies that follows allows for a wide variety of styles. Many couples will find one that fits them and their situation perfectly. For those who want to be more innovative the normal flow of a wedding ceremony follows this outline:
The Processional
Presentation of the Bride
Opening Remarks to Guests
Remarks to the Couple
Impediment declaration
The Pledge / Answer: I do.
Counsel to Wedding Guests
Guidance to Couple
The Vows
The Exchange of Rings
Declaration of Marriage
Signing of the Register
Presentation of the Bride and Groom
The three legal necessities for every wedding ceremony are: impediment declaration, marriage vows and a declaration of marriage. Other matters are optional and adjustable, but are natural parts to a normal ceremony. Readings and add-on ceremonies also found in The Bride’s Candy Store may add sparkle as well.
