Wedding Planning Survey-Please confirm availability of your date via e-mail or telephone before submitting! What religious faith do you follow, if any? If you are not members of a particular church, describe what you believe. If you and your fiance are of different faiths, please describe how you differ. If you are planning a secular wedding, please provide any information that helps us to understand your outlook on life. * Ceremonies can be secular, (with no prayers, blessings, or even references to God), or rich in religious meaning. On a scale of one to five, with one being the most secular, tell us how religious you would like your ceremony to be. * Ceremonies can be short and simple, or extensive and formal. Please comment on the type of ceremony you envision for yourselves. Some people find it difficult to speak in public. If you are such a person, and if you are being married before a large assembly, please keep this in mind. (Use all your favorite adjectives!) Is this your first marriage? * Yes No Is this your fiance's first marriage? * Yes No Do either of you have children? * Yes No If yes, do you want to reference them in your vows? Yes No If yes, do you want them to participate in the ceremony? Yes No (If you have any specific ideas about what you want to include, please note them.) If not a first marriage, specify legally divorced or widowed for each party. Will the bride be escorted by a father or another person (or people?) * Yes No If so, please specify. (An escort is traditional, but this is a matter of personal preference.) Is there any specific reference or particular promise that you wish to include in your vows? (If you intend to write your own vows, you must provide a copy to your celebrant at least one week before your ceremony.) * Are there any particular readings that you want to include in your ceremony? Remember that your family members, friends, or wedding party members may be honored by asking them to give readings. If there is to be a reading, and if you wish the celebrant to give it, please email a copy of the text. If someone else is to read it, please provide the title, source, and/or author. * Will there be music during the ceremony, other than processional and/or recessional? * Yes No Please specify information about any music to be sung or played during the ceremony, including the title of the music and who will be performing it (if live) or the name of the artist (if recorded). Please note: We are only asking about music WITHIN the ceremony, not music that accompanies the wedding party entering or leaving! Do you want to include any symbolic rituals within your ceremony? (unity candle, sand ceremony, handfasting, etc.) * Yes No If so, please tell us what you have in mind. Do both of you feel that this is the best relationship for you for your lifetime? Weddings can be lovely, but marriage is relentless. Are you both ready to make this lifelong commitment? * Please include any other comments about your relationship that will help us to design the perfect ceremony for you.
