Let's Plan Your Wedding Day
My spin on a traditional wedding ceremony is called a Sacred Union Ceremony. Within our Sacred Union Ceremony our bride and groom are coming together not just in marriage, but in heart and soul.
This ceremony is meant to bring the entire congregation into union. This special day is meant to celebrate the unconditional love and depth of understanding found within the couple - both individually and as a partnership.
Listed below is a summary of the step-by-step journey that the Sacred Union Ceremony will take you and your family and friends through:
1. Music starts
2. Congregation enters and index cards and pens are given out Instruction to guest: Write your blessing to the bride and groom Ex: “I send my deepest and truest unconditional love to your partnership.” Ex: “I wish you both abundance, prosperity, and life-long joy.”
3. All are seated
4. Officiant walks to stage
5. Bridesmaids and groomsmen walk to stage
6. Groom and mother walk to stage
7. Bride and father walk to stage
8. Present Moment Awareness Exercise (Ex: As we begin this sacred ceremony I ask that we all begin to tune into the frequency of gratitude. Look at where you are. Look at who you’re sitting next to. The beauty and magic that is in the simplicity of today. The sun, the clouds, the trees, the breeze, and the love. Most of you know the people that surround you and if you don’t - this is a wonderful opportunity to connect with new souls...)
9. The Remembering Of Those Who Have Passed (Ex: As their physical bodies are no longer existent in the material realm, we can most certainly feel their spirits with us on this holy day. Let us take a minute or two of reflection individually and afterwards I will move my hand from left to right across our space and as my hand moves over you please feel free to speak the remembered name aloud...)
10. Hand Holding (Collective Experience) (Ex: I ask that we all hold hands - with the person to your left and to your right. Feel the power in this physical connection. Maybe it’s awkward or uncomfortable. Feel that. Most importantly let us release our judgements placed on this very moment and recognize that these moments - every moment - doesn’t last forever...)
11. Sending Our Blessing (Ex: As we sit here - hand in hand - I ask that we begin to imagine a beam of light streaming from your heart space - the very center of your chest. Pick any color - mine will be green...)
12. The Vows
13. The Rings
14. Flower/Candle Ritual
15. The Pronouncement and Kiss
The service is incredibly intentional and unlike any wedding service or ceremony you've witnessed before. It takes into consideration the energy built between both individuals and the people in your lives that have helped tighten the bond between the two of you. Bringing everyone together for an unforgettable experience.
