Your Dallas Wedding Ceremony
| Your ceremony will be
perfect. Whether it takes place in a church, temple, sanctuary,
courthouse, chapel, or in the wide outdoors, the most important
thing about the entire day is marrying the love of your life and
the vows you will take on that day. This is what makes it simply
perfect -- despite anything else that occurs.
Wedding ceremonies are uniquely personal. Often, brides will
combine traditions from their faith with special touches unique
to their relationship. One way this is accomplished is with a
special ceremony reading. We assembled some of the best ceremony
readings for you. Read them here.

| Items that May Be Part of Your Ceremony |
The Guest Book
Years ago, the wedding guest book was essential as a written record of the witnesses to a wedding. Today, it serves more as a cherished keepsake forthe bride and groom.
Many brides place their traditional guest books on a table at the ceremony location so guests may sign it as they come in. Modern couples often opt for a mat signing board with their photo in it. While still other couples are choosing elaborate scrapbooks for their guests contribute to during the reception.
A new tradition is emerging, called the Wedding Gamesake. In this do-it-yourself game kit, the guest book is built as a personaized game during all the activities that lead up to the wedding and is completed at the reception! Guests create the game cards by writing memories of the bride and groom and signing them (e.g. Move forward 3 spaces for that great holiday party in 2001! Love, Beth). The bride and groom can then play the game on their honeymoon and anniversaries for loads of nostalic fun! |

Music for the Ceremony
Be sure to discuss your musical selections with clergyman performing
the ceremony. In some churches, temples, or synagogues, he or she
must approve the selections before they can be used.
Arrange for appropriate sound systems and/or equipment. If you have
recorded music, find out if you need a cassette tape or a CD. Many
churches only have a cassette player. If you have live music, you
may have to request microphones, music stands, etc.
Caution! If you have a song that must be cued up on cassette, make
SURE it's cued properly. We heard a story of a local wedding where
the bride wanted "From this Moment" to be played
during the unity candle lighting. Unfortunately, the tape wasn't
cued properly and the final words from the previous song played
first --- Shania Twain singing, "Don't be Stupid!"
