that reflects your love, dreams, beliefs, values, and cultural traditions. As non-denominational ministers, we will honor YOUR choices whether: spiritual, religious, traditional or secular.
You may write your own vows & ceremony, or choose from the lovely selections we have available.

Some of our favorite ceremonial touches include:
|
 |
The Blessing of the Hands This is unique to our ceremonies. We begin by having the groom place his hands palms up in the bride's hands so that she may see the gift they are to her. We then say beautiful words that reflect your gifts to each other often beginning with "These are the hands of your best friend . . ."

|
The Rose Ceremony Rose ceremonies are a thank you to your parents. A rose is given as a reminder of their loving example in your lives.

|
Uniting Families with Children We love uniting couples with children. We encourage couples to create a ceremony in which children are honored. A locket or special gift can be presented to memorialize this blending of a new family.
|
|
|
The Unity Candle The two candles are traditionally lit by the mothers of the bride and groom at the beginning of the ceremony. After the vows, the couple will light one unity candle from both candles. We have several special readings such as "May the light of understanding, respect, and tolerance, shine eternally for both of you."

Butterfly Release One of our favorite ceremonies. Butterflies are the symbol of new growth. Butterflies are about letting go, trusting the process, new life and transformation. We can provide referrals of butterfly release farms upon request.

|
Dove Release White dove releases are a beautiful finishing touch to your wedding ceremony. They are a symbol of purity, holiness, fidelity and love. Nothing can describe the magical moment when a bride and groom release a pair of doves in the air while dozens of others are released around them. Referrals can be provided upon request.

The Unity Sand Ceremony The Unity Sand Ceremony is a novel alternative for the popular "unity candle ceremony". It symbolizes the union of "two into one". This sand version is not only beautiful, it is more appropriate for an outdoor setting.

|
|
The Unity Blending of Family Sand Ceremony
The mixing of the various sand colors is a fitting way to symbolize the new Blended
Family. It is a fun way to include the children.

Blessing of Stones
Blessing stones are given guests. During the ceremony there will be a pause to make a wish or blessing for happiness and good will for the couple.
