On a garden rooftop at Rockefeller Center, their friends assembled. The sun was shining, but rain drops were falling...should we stop the ceremony or keep going? Like their romance, we kept going.
The highlight of the ceremony for me was the vows that this couple had written...the promises they pledged to each other. It's difficult to write these important words. Dana used some sample vows I had shared with her for inspiration. Peter's words were from the heart...short and precise. I know family and friends hear and feel the emotion behind the carefully crafted phrases of the vows when the couple writes their own words.
Ceremonny Tip: If you think you can't possibly write your own vows...ask your officiant for coaching and tips. Read books online or those available in bookstores. Do a search on wedding vows...you will be surprised at how much informaiton is available to help you. Your vows don't have to be the best prose ever written...it only has to be the words, the promises you want to make to your new spouse.
