Related to Rehearsal

Members of a bridal party are often unable to attend, usually due to work commitments or that they simply live too far away. This is not an issue, because (after you have been to the rehearsal) you can explain the format and procedure to them prior to the wedding day.

	What happens if members of my bridal party cannot make the Rehearsal?

Related to Rehearsal

it is important for them to be there (only) if they are involved in the ceremony, Traditionally the father of the bride has a role (walking the bride down the aisle), and sometimes the mother of the bride. The parents of the groom often have no role, unless they are partaking in a reading or ritual.

Related to Cost

Due to popular demand, my current price (for Friday, Saturday, Sunday) is marginally higher, depending on your specific wedding requirements. Factors that affect my price include; time of year (popular dates attract a higher fee), day of the week (weekend dates are more popular than weekdays), and rituals and themes. My fee also includes a meeting, a rehearsal, your actual wedding day, and a governement marriage certificate.
