What Makes a Wedding Ceremony Actually Memorable

from Shoot the Vows · host Shoot the Vows

Your ceremony isn't just a formality, it's the actual heart of your wedding day. In this episode of Shoot the Vows, we sit down with Keri Klein of Flower City Ceremonies to talk all things wedding officiating. Keri shares how she custom writes every single ceremony from scratch, what makes a ceremony truly memorable, and why your wedding day is just a really expensive party without one. We're talking about: 💍 What questions an officiant should be asking you before they write your ceremony 💍 Why choosing a friend or family member to officiate isn't always the move 💍 Real officiant horror stories (yes, including lost vows and a no-show) 💍 Unique ceremony traditions you've probably never heard of, like sand ceremonies, hand fasting, jumping the broom, and even a margarita ceremony 💍 Why private vows are such a growing trend right now 💍 How to find a great officiant if you're not getting married locally 💍 The "social media minute" trick that keeps guests happy without phones blocking the aisle Whether you're planning a traditional ceremony or want to throw the rulebook out completely, this episode will help you build a ceremony that actually feels like you. 💐 Connect with Keri & Flower City Ceremonies: Website: https://www.flowercityceremonies.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flowercityceremonies/ 🎙 Connect with Shoot the Vows: Website: https://shootthevows.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shootthevows 🎧 Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/shoot-the-vows/id1850468898 🎧 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5gdQT05rvXeV4dc9cUBSaz
