Hours of preparation go into finding that perfect dress, the best venue, and the right hue that will complement the wedding party and still look beautiful with the details at the reception. Brides even give great care to finding personalized gifts for their bridesmaids, and little-seen details like cufflinks for the groomsman. But how much time and preparation have you given to the person that will actually officiate the ceremony?
A detail not to be looked over, this person can set the tone for the wedding and tie it all together. You want someone that will calm the groom down before the ceremony starts, put the wedding party at ease once everyone is assembled, and get you married in style! Your officiant will do most of the talking during the wedding and will lead you through the different aspects, such as the greeting, vows, and special additions, such as a sand ceremony, or a tying the knot ritual. So, you want to make sure your officiant is well versed in the ceremony and will be sure to reflect the personality of you as a couple.
