French secular ceremony
A French secular ceremony could look like a wedding in a typical american movie but the true difference is that it is not celebrated by a preacher. The lay ceremony is free of any religion connotation, unless you wish for it. Especially if you are from different religions.
Most importantly, a secular ceremony is the perfect path to express your commitment to each other during a ceremony true to yourselves.
The secular ceremony doesn't exempt you from the legal marriage (abroad or at the city hall in France). However this personalized ceremony allows you to concentrate on the feelings which are the source of your union, to consecrate it.
This service includes
- Unlimited meetings with the bride-and-groom-to-be
- Contact with your relatives who could take part to the ceremony
- Creating the ceremony
- Suggestions for texts, poems and musics
- Help in writing your vows
- Choice of rituals and symbols to implement your commitment
- Celebrating your wedding
