John has a lot of nice touches in his ceremonies. He almost always uses a great free-verse poem by Carl Sandburg that compares your relationship towards a budding rose. After the poem most couples exchange leis as part of their vows.

In written form his ceremonies might appear longer than they really are. Each wedding takes only about 10-12 minutes. These ceremonies will be personalized for you and John will use both of your names many times as the two of you are united in marriage.

If you prefer a non religious service that focuses upon the love that has brought you too together, we suggest John's Contemporary Ceremony. Just click on the link to read it.

 

 

If one or both of you have a church background and you want God to have a place in your ceremony, we suggest the Spiritual Ceremony. This is our most popular service. Just click on the link to read it.

 

 

If you are Christians and you want the Lord as a big part of your wedding vows, we would suggest the Christian Ceremony which includes several Bible passages from a modern translation. Click the link to read it:

You may make changes to your vows and/or his ceremonies, but because this does take us extra time and preparation, there is a fee for this service. Check the Ala Carte page.
