Invite time for sunset wedding
Cilya, on December 29, 2020 at 8:49 AM

Our sunset will be at 6:03 p.m. How early should I make the start time so that we can get our ceremony to be while the sun is setting? Was thinking 30 min? Thanks!

Non traditional
Shannon, on December 26, 2020 at 10:25 AM

Ceremony Songs
Charissa, on December 21, 2020 at 2:25 PM

I'm trying to pick my ceremony songs and am uncertain how many I need. We are walking out of the woods to the front of the barn. I'm assuming it's approximately 100 yards from the edge of the woods to...

What happens with the rings?!
Lindsey, on December 11, 2020 at 9:46 AM
