With so much attention given to planning the perfect reception, couples sometimes find that they haven't given quite enough thought to their ceremony. which is, needless to say, the most important part of your big day. After all, the service sets the tone of the entire event, and it's also the best opportunity you have to reflect on the rituals, traditions and values that mean so much to both of you and your families. Here, we fill you in on all the planning basics and share a few ceremony stories from real couples.

Making It Legal

A simple civil ceremony is all you actually need to be legally married. Religious ceremonies are a bit more complicated. If that's your choice, you must clear all your plans with your clergyperson, as some houses of worship have strict rules for wedding services.

The Christian Ceremony

The processional marks the beginning of the ceremony. The groomsmen enter first, followed by the bridesmaids, the maid of honor, the ring bearer, the flower girl and the bride on her father's arm. The groom waits at the altar with his best man and the celebrant.
In the presentation, the bride's father escorts her to the groom.
A blessing follows.
The officiant asks the bride and groom that famous question, “Do you take…?”
The couple exchanges vows, followed by a benediction recited by the officiant.
The couple exchanges rings.
