Room with a View



Julian and Debbie came to New York City from London to get married in the Mandarin Oriental, right on Columbus Circle...in a room filled with blossons, candles, a great view of Central Park...and lots of excited family and friends.

As the wedding officiant, I began the ceremony by introducing the bride's father who gave a blessing to his daughter...meaningful, from the heart, and filled with tradition.

Ceremony Tip: Many members of the family were included in the formal procession. It required organization and some time at the outset of the ceremony...but the visual impact of the procession made such a warm and inclusive impression. Family is important to this couple - so this was just the right thing to do.

Julie Laudicina,Celebrant!
