Congratulations in planning your wedding. Have you begun the process of preparing and organizing your checklist? Maybe you have even hired a wedding planner. Good for you! You are on the right track.
Now what about the wedding officiant? Do you have someone in mind? Some couples consider the wedding officiant as an afterthought in planning their wedding. Don’t let that happen to you.
It is important to find someone who honors who you are as a couple and works with you in celebrating your wedding from start to finish. A good wedding officiant will work with the couple to create a ritual that best celebrates their unique and special love. Finding and working with a wedding official ahead of time, even at the early stages of the wedding planning, is a plus. That way, there will be no surprises and you can relax a little more that the person officiating your wedding will respect and honor your needs as a couple.
