ceremonies, so be creative and customize
yours t

Here is an outline for a traditional 5-part
ceremony you can use as a starting point.

1.) WELCOME
The officiant welcomes everyone
and sets the mood.

2.) PRESENTATIONS
Selections of poetry, music or symbolic
rituals by family and friends.

3.) VOWS
Vows are exchanged, usually by
"repeat after me" method.

4.) RINGS
Rings or other tokens are exchanged.

5.) CLOSING
Officiant pronounces the marriage
and closes the ceremony.
