What’s Your Ceremony Vibe?
Most couples who find us know, for sure, that they don’t want their wedding ceremony to be an impersonal snorefest with patriarchal undertones that everyone has to sit through to get to the fun times. YIKES! Those before times did a number on us, huh?! Beyond that though, oftentimes couples don’t have a clear vision of this important part of their wedding day.
No shade. We get that many are more familiar with traditional, religious weddings than they are with authentic ceremonies that truly reflect and celebrate the beauty of love stories. We’ve been there with each of our own weddings before we came to be wedding officiants ourselves, so trust us. We really do get it!
With that in mind, it’s important for us to get an idea of your vibe so we can reflect that back to you on your wedding day. After all, your wedding ceremony will be the first shared experience for your guests so ideally this milestone moment in your lives is a true representation of you and your love.
Let’s do a vibe check.
One of the first questions we ask every couple is: how do you want to feel during your wedding ceremony and how do you want your guests to feel during your ceremony?
As the renowned poet and civil rights activist Maya Angelou once said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” With this wisdom in mind, we believe it’s important to get a sense of the feelings you want imbued throughout your wedding day and especially during your ceremony. The goal is to always foster a great sense of unity and joy with the personal touch of a loved one. Whether that’s with a fun-loving humorous vibe, a romantic sentimental ride, or a balance of lighthearted and heartfelt, we’re here to reflect that back to you on your wedding day.
While many may not know specifically what to include in their wedding ceremony, this question dives into what’s most important. So take a minute to imagine yourselves holding hands, lost in each other’s eyes, surrounded by the people you care about. How do you want to feel? Imagine looking back on this day decades from now. What feelings do you want attached to this special day?
Whatever your vibe, we, at Once Upon a Vow, promise to create a personalized and memorable ceremony that you’ll look back on for years to come. We don’t take this responsibility lightly. As wedding officiants, we’ll weave your unique story and values into a wedding experience that you’ll reminisce on anniversaries and random Tuesdays.
Find your vibe, amores! We’ll honor it.
