Say “I do” to tying the knot. “Officiant Lisa Francesca has literally written the book on how to plan the perfect ceremony.” —Martha Stewart Weddings According to a 2019 WeddingWire report based on data from more than 18,000 newlyweds, only twenty-five percent of weddings are taking place in religious institutions. More than one in three American weddings are being officiated by a friend or family member. With the officiating trend on the rise, novice officiants need a resource to guide them. In The Wedding Officiant’s Guide, interfaith minister Lisa Francesca breaks down the entire officiating process, from becoming an ordained officiant and interviewing the couple to drafting and performing a moving ceremony. Written in an engaging and friendly tone, and featuring empowering advice, suggested readings, stories and lessons learned from new officiants, and practical tips from wedding planners, this inviting handbook will help new officiants write and deliver a wedding ceremony that fulfills marriage laws, delights guests, and honors the marrying couple.

Your vows are the most important and sacred part of your wedding day so it is vital that you feel comfortable with everything you are saying to your partner. What better way to achieve this than to create the vows yourself and make your special day even more meaningful. Personalized vows can be full of intent and meaning, or can even serve to add a touch of humor to your wedding ceremony. Through original words and extracts from poems and literature both traditional, unconventional, and inspirational, Wedding Vows and Traditions will incite you to write words from the heart and create a truly memorable day for you and your partner. Above us are the stars; below us are the stones As time does pass, remember; Like a star should our love be constant, Like a stone should our love be firm. Adapted from a Native American Blessing Two lives already richly lived, one road still to travel. Let's not regret what might have been, but enjoy what may unravel. Cathy Howes
