Custom ceremony
Celebrating your unique love story
I will need to know as much as possible about your story: anecdotes , what do you mean to each other , your values , in order to personalize it. Imagine your story told with a sensitivity nod , humor and at the same time in tune with the appropriated concept of “wedding”.
Once you have contacted me , I send you different rituals, reading options , vows and our extensive file that includes all kinds of details to let me understand which ceremony style suits you best.
I always suggest that naturalness, romanticism and harmony with the chosen location be what guide the ceremony spirit ; this way it will be more authentic. Beaches or rural environments allow rituals in line with nature. In cities , halls or specific locations we will focus on rites consistent with the setting.
The ceremony it self is a blessing and celebration of what you have lived as a couple and of the decision to offer yourselves as companions for life. Beyond creeds, these types of ceremonies reach the hearts of guests and couples, no matter if they are traditional or modern , as they are designed and experienced with love and complicity.
The music, the guests, the feelings…
I know the importance of photographs and video, those images that will accompany you throughout your life as a memory of your day, so I will suggest where and how to locate you ( sitting, standing, in V, facing the guests …). Thanks to the rituals we’ll get beautiful images quite different from those of the ceremonies that only show the back of the bride and groom without expressiveness or emotion.
We can design traditional bridal processions or as elaborated and theatrical as you wish. I will advise you on this and also in the sitting of the first rows. If you have a wedding planner, she will facilitate those details.
The participation of family or friends is very valuable. I can suggest rituals in which they may join in, or they can bring their own writings and ideas. My mission is also to coordinate the length of those readings and the overall duration of the ceremony according to the organization chart of the rest of the event.
Music, another factor that draws and defines the rhythm of the ceremony (either if it’s live, played, instrumental or sang), will be the one you prefer ; I’ll suggest when to include the different songs. Through music, we will create authentic experiences within the ceremony (joy , emotion , romanticism …).
The meetings and the program
If you have guests who speak different languages, I will use a main one and short translations in the other ones, to keep everyone’s focus and not to lose momentum. And if you wish the symbolic ceremony to have legal value, I will co-officiate with the designated official figure.
The blessing length will meet the organization chart needs, taking into account the rest of the event, and if there is a sunset or anything special prepared after the ceremony. It can last up to 45 minutes when it involves guests’ intervention and is enjoyable, with rituals, music, and surprises.
I will provide everything you may need by skype, telephone and during visits to the location, and days before the event we will do a rehearsal if necessary.
What I always achieve is that you feel relaxed knowing that everything is well organized and to your taste. On your special day there will smiles, loving glances, complicity, and I always keep an Ace up my sleeve to surprise you a little.
I can manage the official ceremony too, (if it is feasible in your case) as well as the entire wedding organization in Ibiza and Formentera if you wish, with over a decade of experience and success.
