Ideas for a Short and Sweet Wedding Ceremony

Short does not mean rushed. It means every part earns its place.

• A two-sentence welcome instead of a speech
• One short reading, or none
• Repeat-after-me vows so nobody freezes
• A single unity element, if any
• A pronouncement with some warmth in it

A well-built eight-minute ceremony is often more memorable than a twenty-five-minute one. Then: cake.
