    We kept it short and sweet, we discussed with our officiant beforehand that only 1-2 prayers were needed lol didn't want it to turn into a sermon!

    Probably on the longer side of 30-45 min.. We have a lot of "extras" that we would like to do such as readings and a worship song.

    Short. My future father in law is performing the ceremony, and it will be no longer than 20-30 minutes.

    I think our ceremony will be relatively short with one of our good friends officiating for us. I really want it to be meaningful though so instead of an off the shelf script I've started putting together something I think everyone in attendance will enjoy that our friend can tweak and personalize to make it perfect in his eyes. I've never been to a wedding where a friend has officiated so I'm not sure what the standard protocol is so I'm trying to cover all of the bases and we will figure it out a little closer to the wedding date.

    Short. As in you know why we’re here - it’s too late to object- we do. Let’s eat.

    Im serious. But to make it worth the chair rentals I want an elaborate entrance lol
