Collaboration

How it works

Direct Communication

  • 01

    We have a brief no-obligation conversation. We can get a feeling for each other and decide if we’d like to collaborate on your ceremony.

  • 02

    I’m always only a phone call (or email) away.

  • 03

    We meet a second time to review the first draft of your ceremony.

  • 04

    Continuing the collaboration, we arrive at the final version of your ceremony. All the elements and logistics are in place and we’re ready to go.

Crafting the ceremony

  • 01

    In additon to the information gleaned from our initial meeting, I give you both a questionnaire to answer, separately. The questions cover milestone moments in your relationship and feelings and thoughts you both have, among other things.

  • 02

    The first draft of your ceremony is created based on your responses to the questionnaires.

    I also suggest readings, rituals or other elements for your consideration.

  • 03

    We get together once again to discuss the first draft. Here you decide whether there are any deletions, additions or other modifications you’d like to make to your ceremony.

  • 04

    The final script is crafted to perfection and presented for your approval. This script will then be used during the ceremony. You will also receive a formatted keepsake copy which will provide memories for years to come as well as becoming a family heirloom.

The Day

  • 01

    I arrive at the venue at least 30 minutes in advance. I have the script, readings and some of the other elements or objects we plan on using.

  • 02

    I meet with members of the wedding party, check in on anything technical like sound and light, etc. and take my place in anticipation of the processional.

  • 03

    The processional begins and the wedding party take their places. Everyone looks amazing. The happy couple are simply glowing.

    The ceremony unfolds, smiles cross faces, tears are shed and memories of the lovely couple are etched into the minds of one and all.

  • 04

    Oh, that kiss. That awesome acknowledgement of a new beginning in your deepening love for one another. You want to bring this love forward into the world, and so the recessional into the continuing romance and love story begins.
