I always strive to give my couples a ceremony that reflects what they want in their ceremony and doesn't break the bank while always focusing on what the marriage ceremony is about. I typically create a draft ceremony and then forward to the couple for review and any changes. My chapel is small and is created with the concept that less is more. Since it is located on private property, guest lists are limited to 10 people or less.
