About Signature Celebration

 

Some ceremonies need more than a questionnaire.

​

Signature Celebration is for couples whose ceremony calls for a more collaborative development process. Through conversation, we take the time to understand your relationship, your families, and the cultural or personal context behind the elements you want to include.

​

If you would like us to tell your love story, we want to understand more than a list of dates and milestones. We explore the journey from how you met to the experiences that shaped your relationship and brought you to marriage, then develop that story for the ceremony.

​

Signature Celebration is also where we work with multicultural ceremonies, family traditions, and rituals. Rather than simply adding an element to the ceremony order, we look at what it means, who is involved, how different traditions can sit alongside one another, and how everything connects as one ceremony.

​

The process gives us room to explore ideas together, develop the ceremony with you, and work through more complex structures when needed.

​

If you prefer your officiant to take the lead rather than work through an extended ceremony development process together, Classic Celebration gives you an established structure while keeping the focus on the meaning of the ceremony.

Why Book at Least Six Months Ahead?

Signature Celebration must be booked at least six months in advance. The time leading up to your wedding allows us to get to know you beyond a questionnaire and build the understanding needed to develop and deliver your ceremony.
