Most people who are reading this have attended at least two weddings or more over the years. With very few exceptions, most of those weddings are about the same. From your perspective as the Bride and Groom, your wedding will be very beautiful just because it’s your wedding day – after all, your are marrying the person of your dreams, you’ve been planning this day since you were 9 or 10 years old, and this is the most important day of your life. However, from the audience’s perspective, 75% of the time, weddings are very boring. People have seen the same wedding over and over again. Your guests are sitting in the audience thinking – the Bride sure does look beautiful in her wedding gown, the Groom looks good in his penguin suit, but where’s the party, where’s the food, where’s the cake. The reason I do what I do is very simple – I want every marriage to last. In this day and age where divorce is so prevalent, marriage is very important. I don’t require counseling, even though it is available if you choose to do so. But the way I put together a ceremony is in such a way, that the Bride and Groom will have a greater chance of having a fantastic life together. I do what I do for the following reason: 5, 10, or 20 years from now when someone asks you what you remember about your wedding, you may remember that Uncle George got drunk and fell into the cake table, or the Bride’s brother got mad at the Groom’s brother and they punched each other out. If that happens, of course you’ll always remember that – let’s hope that don’t happen. But what I want to have happen is when someone asks you about what you remember about your wedding – I want you to remember something that took place during the ceremony. THE CEREMONY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE DAY because if it wasn’t for the ceremony, there wouldn’t be any reason to have the “party” afterwards. For this reason is why I’ve been referred to as the “most sought after wedding Officiant in the Treasure Valley.” What I try to do is turn your audience from simple spectators into participants. There are a few ways I do that, but mainly I try to make the ceremony as beautiful for your guests as what it is for you. Other Officiants have tried to do what I do but it doesn’t work for them. Without giving away all my secrets here, just let me say that “unless you’ve seen a wedding that I’ve officiated at, you’ve never seen a wedding done the way I do one, or probably ever will again.” Because of how beautiful I try to make a ceremony, I’ve had to copyright my ceremonies to keep them out of the hands of other Officiants. Some of the things that we can discuss would be: Hand ceremony, Rose ceremony, Hypnotic eyes ceremony, Parents ceremony, Unity Candle or Unity Sand involving parents or grand-parents, Recognition of Children, Acknowledgement of Children, Dove or Butterfly release, Balloon release. Some Officiants try to do some of these items, but it’s not the same as the way I perform them.
