Hours and Minutes: Wedding Ceremony Writing Services

Wedding ceremonies can be an open slate—a chance to showcase who you are as a couple. While that’s exciting, it can also be intimidating (especially in the thick of wedding planning!). That’s where Hours and Minutes come in. Shannon believes that we live our lives far more in the hours and minutes—the small moments that make up each day—rather than the big, easier-to-reach-for memories of months and years. After learning more about your everyday lives—your habits, humor, and quirks—Shannon writes a reading for your ceremony. There are two ways Shannon gets to know you—through a written questionnaire and a 60 minute zoom conversation.

I know firsthand what it’s like to want a ceremony that feels unique and intentional. That’s what lead me to write an “hours and minutes “ piece for my own wedding. It filled me up to put so many facets of our relationship into words, and sharing it with all of our wedding guests— and the intimacy that created—was even better. All night long, guests told me and my husband how meaningful our ceremony was. That’s what inspired me to offer this service to others. Everyone deserves to share a portrait of their unique brand of love on their wedding day. I can't wait to tell the story of your Hours and Minutes!
