Together, a personal and unique ceremony that reflects your hearts, personality, faith, and history will be created. Your ceremony can be performed in your home, outdoors, or in a beautiful R.I. venue. Some couples bring their religious traditions to their ceremony, others do not have a practice presently. For both, the personality and love of the couple will be expressed. Readings, sample vows and other ideas can be offered to you.
