Wedding ceremonies are meant to be personal, symbolic, and as unique as the two individuals participating in the ceremony.  It is a great time of celebration, recognition of a union, and honoring of two souls.  It is also a time to witness and recognize love in its truest form.  Your ceremony should be exactly as you want it to be, reflecting you both, honoring your beliefs and creating the foundation of your lives together as a married couple.  

Symbolic traditions in a ceremony play a significant role in your ceremony.  We will discuss the many options you might consider when planning your ceremony.  

You may decide that you would like a more religious, traditional ceremony, spiritual, or alternative ceremony.  What is important is that your ceremony reflect the two of you, your unity, your commitment to one another, and that is what we will create together.
