Grooms -- not just a necessary bridal accessory any more!

I'm appreciating the grooms today!

It used to be a truism that one technically required a groom in order to actually get married but other than showing up at the alter in a tuxedo with a ring, he didn't really serve much purpose in a wedding.  

Not anymore. Grooms want to be more involved in their weddings than ever. 

I find that grooms often feel especially strongly about being involved in creating ceremony itself.  They want the words, rituals and music to reflect not only their beliefs and philosophy but also they want the ceremony to capture their feelings about marrying the woman who will be standing beside them.

The King of Asheville Mardi Gras was highly involved in the  creation of the Royal Wedding!
Most couples I work with receive a questionnaire from me as part of the process. The Handsome Boyfriend often finds me misty-eyed in my office reading a groom's sweet reflections on how he met his bride, what he loves most about her and his hopes for their life together.  

It's just precious.  And it makes me optimistic for the world.  

Grooms (and Brides) who want to Explore the Possibilities for their wedding ceremony in a relaxed, no-obligation phone call can contact me here and I'll get right back to you.

From my heart,
