Bridesmaid to do reading

Kelly, on August 12, 2019 at 8:25 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 6
Has anyone had their bridesmaid do a reading? How was the flow of the ceremony? I want 1 Corinthians 13 to be read at the wedding. My aunt was originally going to do it, but she had skin cancer removed from her face (thankfully she is ok now) but there is a scar & she doesn’t want to be upfront with a scar. Anyway I asked my one bridesmaid if she was comfortable doing it & wanted to do it & she is & does. So now I’m just trying to imagine the flow....

    I would just have her move closer to you or maybe put a mic on her, but not have it turned on until she is giving the speech.

    She’s the BM after the MOH in the lineup. I’m thinking that she will give her flowers to the BM next to her (the MOH might be holding my flowers) move to the center where the officiant is, give a reading & then go back to her spot.

    Our MOH just put her flowers down on the altar, picked up the book with the reading in it from the altar, and did the reading.

    That’s an idea. I won’t have an alter, but we will have a table for the wine ceremony,

    I’ve been in weddings where a BM has done a reading. They just have the girl next to them hold their flowers, walk up for the reading, and go back to their spot with the rest of the girls. I’ve never noticed any disruption from it.

    I’m so overthinking it. I’ve never been to a wedding that a BM did a reading which is throwing me off. Thanks for ur feedback tho Smiley smile
