Creating Your Ceremony
The most important aspect of your wedding is the ceremony. I love creating personalized ceremonies for each couple, reflecting your beliefs, ethnic background and traditions.
Once I receive your deposit and contract, we begin on your ceremony. You can select from religious, spiritual and romantic ceremonies. After you decide on the type of ceremony, I will send you several variations from which you can create your own unique ceremony. We can work on it together to make it an expression of your love for each other and who you are.
At your wedding, I will give you a keepsake copy of your ceremony. Often couples send a copy of this to family members and friends who were unable to attend the wedding.
Your ceremony may include:
- acknowledgment of people present or absent
- poetry or prose
- favorite music
- cultural gift exchanges
- ethnic or personal rituals
- children
- beloved pets are welcome to be included in the ceremony

For a small charge, your ceremony can be translated into a language other than English.
A professional, high quality portable sound system is available for Minister's use during the ceremony recital with larger groups, or if the waves are crashing, making hearing the ceremony difficult.
We can fly your flag
My husband has a collection of over 100 flags! When you get married at the beach near my home, we fly your flag to honor you. Couples and their families from other countries are surprised and delighted with this tradition.
If you need other services, I can recommend photographers, videographers, florists, hair stylists, fine restaurants, bed and breakfasts, limo services, hotels and reception facilities.
