Hey all, any post-brides or officiants on here, I need some help!
My officiant is a friend of ours from college, he hasn’t actually officiated any weddings yet (maybe one at most but I don’t think so). I have a pretty solid layout for them, but I’m wondering how to keep the timing right. We have 30 min for the ceremony, and we have 9 groups walking down the aisle (groom and grandmother, grandmother with grandfather, MOG with FOG, MOB with GOB, bridesmaid with groomsmen, bridesmaid 2 w/ gm2, bm 3 with GM4, and MOH with Best Man, then myself with my dad.
We’re not doing anything religious but we are doing a handfasting ceremony and writing our own vows.
My question is, how much time will we have for vows and how much time the officiant has for whatever it is he’ll be saying
