Raleigh Heart2Heart Wedding Blog: Why your ceremony should be the high light of your wedding!

Your ceremony is the pinnacle of your wedding day, but it often gets overshadowed by the reception.

That's why we've fallen in love with the idea of doing something over-the-top right as you're pronounced husband and wife — your guests will always remember that moment, instead of having your incredible dessert display being the only thing they're talking about for weeks on end.

Why your ceremony should be the high light of your wedding.

When guests think back about the weddings they’ve attended, they probably rate them based on the fun they had at the reception.

That was the past & a new day has dawned!

Today’s bride & groom should have more to remember on their special day then the reception.

The first thing that happens at a wedding is the ceremony. It’s the reason why you’re having the wedding to begin with. If not it would be just a great party.

In days gone by the marriage ceremony was the part the guests had to sit through just to get to the fun stuff & the bride & groom needed to muster their way through in order to be married.

But today with all the wonderful options available to wedding couples, the ceremony is not only romantic & memorable but also fun!

Remembering those who have passed away

The sky is the limit with today’s ceremonies, if the bride & groom can think of it there’s a way to seamlessly blend it into the ceremony.

By making your ceremony the high light of the day everyone has lasting memories of that special part they could relate with or felt included in.

Why limit your ceremony to the standard old script when you can indulge in a story told about your love for each other, your love for life & your love for ????.

Many couples now choose to have a themed wedding related with something they love or family heritage.

Maybe you both love Retro. No problem finding all the needed props. Today’s wedding planners are happy to accommodate your style.

Your ceremony can still remain in the forefront by creating a script including some retro lingo & by adapting something that was done in that time period you can create a unique unity ceremony that will delight everyone & have you & your beloved having the time of your life.
