Weddings

The marriage ceremony itself is the jewel in the crown of your wedding day. I really enjoy designing wedding ceremonies and will ensure that your ceremony is the finest and elegant in its style and presentation. Marriage ceremony itself will take approximately 25 – 40 minutes, including the signing of certificates.

The structure of the wedding ceremony may vary, depending on the couple’s wishes, however there always be the Compulsory and Optional parts.

Compulsory parts are:

  • ‘Monitum’ (extract) from the Marriage Act

  • Marriage Vows

  • Pronouncement of the couple as Husband and Wife (or Husband/Husband, Wife/Wife)

  • Signing of Marriage Certificates

Optional parts could assist to make the ceremony more meaningful and engage the audience. Below is the list of the options to consider:

  • Wedding traditions & rituals from many cultures

  • Jewish wedding rituals to create the atmosphere of Jewish wedding, especially for the interfaith couples.

  • Personal, self-composed Vows

  • Readings and poetry

I will:

  • Provide an advice and design the ceremony that suits you best

  • Address all your inquiries or concerns.

  • Travel to wedding locations of your choice

  • Provide PA system (on request)

  • Play music of your choice (on request)

A civil wedding ceremony gives you the freedom to choose your favourite location, which could be a park, beachside, beautiful reception or your home.

My home in Clarinda with the beautifully decorated and spacious garden is also available as a Wedding Venue for up to 15 guests.
