IT'S YOUR SPECIAL DAY!
While most people put a lot of focus on the wedding dress, dinner and reception, the wedding ceremony is what makes the union of two people symbolic and meaningful. The ceremony is the reason we are here (there). It's the meat and potatoes of the wedding. The ceremony is the cake, everything else is icing. The dress, tux, rings or decorations are not the wedding it is the ceremony that is the wedding. The ceremony IS NOT just a formality, it makes the big day the BIG DAY when two lives are changed forever. For better or For worse!
The Bible reminds us that at the beginning the Creator, GOD, made us male and female, and said, “For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh.”
Marriage is of God. God loved us and created us to love others. Our lives find completion only as we love and are loved in return. Together we can become what we could never be separately.
The union of husband and wife in heart, body, and mind is intended by God for their mutual joy and pleasure; for the help and comfort given one another in prosperity and adversity. Therefore, marriage is not to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly, but reverently, deliberately, and in accordance with the purposes for which it was instituted by God. Marriage is not merely a social construct. Nor is happiness its goal. Happiness is a benefit of marriage, but it is not the goal. The goal of marriage is to reflect God’s image and to advance His kingdom.
We do not just offer to perform the ceremony and walk away, we engage long before the ceremony and are available to you long after the kiss is complete and the presentation of Bride and Groom have been announced.
We aid in the proper setup and direction for the ceremony as an advisor or support to your wedding planning if you have one. We provide options for various options and ideas for "sealing the deal" with custom or traditional ring exchange as well as symbols of unity. Everything from the three stranded cord to jumping the broom we've got you covered.
We engage with the family prior to the ceremony to offer separate prayer with the groom and his party, the bride and her party as well as family prayer during the ceremony (if desired)
The wedding is designed to be a glorious and exciting day thus we strive to ensure that the ceremony kicks the party off long before the pictures and the receptions begins.
We also ensure that your marriage license is properly signed and submitted to the city/state recorder so you can go on and live happily (holy) ever after.
