Many couples want a spiritual but not a religious ceremony that truly celebrates their unique set of beliefs, values and life circumstances. They want their ceremony, their way but don’t know where to begin or what questions they need to ask. The Wedding Ceremony Planner is a comprehensive and user-friendly guide. It covers everything you need to know to create a beautiful ceremony text and to anticipate and address all the profound and mundane logistics with ease, grace and fun. It includes hundreds of text excerpts reflecting the many voices with which our hearts speak. There are also ten sample ceremony texts, including those used to address such situations as the inclusion of children, the telling of the couple’s story, the renewal of vows and a commitment ceremony. Checklists and worksheets are included to manage all the details. The Wedding Ceremony Planner is also an invaluable resource for clergy of all faiths, wedding planners and location coordinators. Sprinkled with anecdotes about lessons learned by couples creating their weddings, this book is filled with the wisdom of experience.

I found this book to be full of religiously-themed and cheesy/saccharine passages (sorry!). We're trying to plan a non-religious ceremony and really didn't find this book helpful at all as far as writing our ceremony. This book was good for convincing us that we needed a rehearsal and for pointing out some procedural things we hadn't thought of. Otherwise, you could probably find any of the passages included in the book (or something better) elsewhere on the interwebs--this is a good book to use if you haven't planned anything about your ceremony, but if you've already been researching it, I don't think this will be worth your time (unless you are writing your own religious ceremony, in which case, this could be the book for you).

This book was very helpful to my husband and I. It walked us through every part of the ceremony we wanted to create. The are lots of examples of openings, vows, ring exchanges and closings to choose from! We would have been lost without it!!! AWESOME!

This book provided so much help for my fiancee and I when planning our ceremony. It gives a lot of examples of many different types of ceremonies and breaks them down from start to finish. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because some of the examples are slighty cheezy and over the top, but I guess this all comes down to the fact that everyone has different taste. I would still recommend it to anyone who needs help planning either a religious or non-religious ceremony.

With the help of this book, the only problem we'll have is narrowing down exactly what we want to use for our wedding. Great layout, appropriate for various types of ceremonies. Anyone who purchases this book shouldn't have a problem designing their special celebration of love.

This book was invaluable when making our wedding ceremony personal. It made it easy to combine a few lines from one example with a few lines from another example to create beautiful, personalized wording throughout our ceremony, from greeting to exit and every piece in between. I really appreciated that there were so many full examples with all different types of verbiage, grouped by each section of the ceremony.
