So, we are having a very small, intimate destination wedding, and I want to incorporate foot washing during it, not necessarily as a religious symbol, but as a personal reflection of our commitment to humble ourselves and serve each other. My question is what should we do during it? A specific reading, that is not directly religious, doing our vows (or a variation of them), music, etc?

Note: Please don't say "ew" if feet aren't your thing or you personally don't like the ceremony itself. Also, we will both be barefoot (or wearing thin sandals) so I'm also not too concerned with that.

Thanks in advance for all of your advice and suggestions!

    Agree with this. Im happy to see Christ's work incorporated into your wedding, but you should know that most guests would interpret it as explicitly religious.
