I encourage all couples to have a rehearsal prior to your ceremony date. The ideal setting is the actual venue. This is one of the best ways to have a run through with all the individuals that will part take in the ceremony.

 

It serves a few purposes:

  • Eliminates stresses for you the couple.

  • Gives your family and friends participating in the ceremony confidence that they will do the right thing on the day.
