    Traditions - Ceremony

    TRADITIONS Podcast Show Notes Date: Tuesday, March 29, 2022 Episode:   017 Title:   TRADITIONS Subtitle:      A Wedding Ceremony Length:            00:23:44 Final Show Link:   http://TRADITIONS.buzzsprout.com In this episode of Traditions we listen to an actual wedding ceremony.  If you are a new listener to TRADITIONS, we would love to hear from you.  Please visit our Tom@Your-Special-Day.net and let us know how we can help you today!  Today’s offering is going to be quite different from the norm and address the complete marriage ceremony itself. One of the signature services offered by our firm, Your Special Day, is to custom-craft every ceremony we officiate. We ask the bridal couple to complete a brief questionnaire that helps us get to know and understand their wedding dreams. Then we provide several sample ceremonies -- from the library of such that we’ve accumulated over the years -- for them to review and critique. We encourage them to “cut and paste” to their heart’s content as well as insert and delete sections, customs, and traditions – both cultural and familial – until they arrive at what will most precisely reflect the love they’re bringing to the marriage. These sample ceremonies are nothing secret. You can find hundreds of them all over the Internet. Our web site and Pinterest page also offer dozens upon dozens for review. I’ll include links to our web site and Pinterest page in the show notes for this episode. But - - - - - what I haven’t found on the web is an actual reading of a ceremony that you can listen to and know how your officiant will offer it to you on your special day. That’s what I’m going to do today.
