It was a wonderful spring day when Mike and Lisa became husband and wife.
Adding rituals and special elements can make a wedding ceremony personal and unique.
I offer many options and always happy when couples choose to have their rings blessed.
There are many ways to bless wedding rings. Lisa and Mike chose to include the four elements: air, fire, earth, and water.
Air: communication and creativity.
Fire: passion and spirit.
Earth: wealth and harmony.
Water: affection and compassion.
Rings were passed over incense and flame, then touched to a stone and submersed in water. Sometimes couples prefer having the rings blessed with water only. A great way to personalize a ceremony.
And a blessing before the rings are exchanged.
Not everyone wants a large wedding with lots of guests.
Many couples prefer a private ceremony.

The 'First' kiss. Always my favorite part!
And a happy Mr. and Mrs, ready for adventures.
