CEREMONY CHECKLIST

THE CEREMONY

The Ceremony is what will take you from being an engaged couple to being a married couple. Therefore, the place you choose for your ceremony can be as unique as the two of you. It could be a church, cathedral, chapel or temple. Other choices include a hall, country club, hotel, restaurant, garden, your home, or judges chambers. The ceremony site should have some special significance for you both. Whichever site you choose, it should be able to comfortably accommodate the number of guest you plan to invite.

When choosing a date, consider weather conditions, family commitments and local special events and celebrations.

If you will be married by a member of the clergy, be sure to contact him or her Early to discuss how your own special wishes can be combined with Ceremony rites to make your ceremony personal and meaningful to you and your fiancˇ.

Be sure to ask about the facility's wedding policies. Many churches and other sites where weddings regularly occur may provide you with a wedding policy booklet. If there are any restrictions in regards to decorations, music, photography, or videography, be sure to let your wedding venders know.
