Hey everyone, I'm Delia, and I'm new here. I'm in the very early stages of wedding planning but there are a few things I'd like to get set. One is the readers for the ceremony. We are having an outside wedding. It will not be officiated by a religious figure, but we are both religious and would like to incorporate that somehow. I'm just looking for some inspiration. How many people read passages (religious or otherwise) at weddings you've been to and what are your plans for yours? I was thinking about asking my aunt to read a Bible passage and a friend of ours to read something non-religious?

Welcome! I was in a wedding where they had two. Neither we're religious, but one was serious and one was funny. I like the idea of one religious reading and one non religious one.

I'm having a catholic mass, so we have 3 readers (old testament, New Testament, and intentions). Our godparents will be readers

Thanks for the input! I was also thinking about having a young relative read a funny poem.

You could definitely have a religious reading and a non-religious one.

We are having a quick 15 min ceremony and decided to incorporate one bible passage. We are both catholic but not getting married at the church.

We are having a catholic ceremony...so we will have 3. We are doing my FH's SIL, and our godmothers. I think that having two readings (one funny and one not) is a really great idea!
