Couples often want to include one or more special ceremonies, rituals or readings to personalize the wedding ceremony.  The nature of these enrichments may be cultural, ethnic, tribal, traditional, religious, spiritual, unifying or family-centered.  Some couples request a wedding ceremony with both Ann and Bill officiating, or one of them may be asked to officiate with another celebrant.

Carefully selected ceremonies, rituals and readings provide wonderful wedding day memories. The beautiful, tender and heartfelt moments can be captured on video or in photographs that can fill a keepsake album. They may include the Rose Presentations to Mothers; Unity Candle Lighting; Unity Sand; Chuppah Reading; Rose Presentations to Mothers; Embracing a Child(ren); Breaking the Glass; Jumping the Broom; Irish/Celtic Hand Fasting; Greek Orthodox Crowning; Asian Red Thread; Ringing of the Wedding Bell; and Sharing a Glass of Wine.

Couples who want to include special readings have the option of asking one or more relatives or friends to recite poems, prayers or verses. Often, couples like to include a personal story about how they met and fell in love.

Life,  The Gift of Nature...   Love, The Gift of Life...   A Kiss,  The Gift of Love.
