I am just realizing as I'm making a rough draft of my programs, that I'm having some trouble organizing our ceremony. We will obviously have the processional, and then the introduction by the officiant to welcome everyone, then after that I get stuck, We have the officiant saying the "normal" things; a little blurb about marriage before our personalized vows and then the presentation of the rings and the whole "husband..wife...kiss" part at the end.
But we also have two different readings and I'm not sure where to put them. I like the idea of the vows and the rings happening all together at the very end before the pronunciation of husband and wife and the kiss. However, I don't think that I want the readings back to back.
I was thinking maybe,
-officiant's welcome
-reading #1
-officiant's little blurb on marriage which introduces...
-reading #2
-officiant's intro to vows
-vows
-rings
-love kiss the end.
ahhhh??? does that seem to random and jumbled?
