Martha Stewart Weddings Summer 2010  Wedding Programs: At Your Service

You’ve spent hours and hours obsessing over every detail of your reception, and with good reason — it’s going to be the party of a lifetime. But take a breather from all that to think about the other half of your big day: your ceremony. It deserves the same careful consideration as your reception; spend as much time selecting your music, vows, and rituals as you would your cake, flowers, and decor. After all, that special moment when you and your fiance are pronounced husband and wife is the true highlight of your wedding — one that friends and family members will remember long after the cake is cut and the bouquet is tossed.

To help you design your ceremony, we’ve called in the professionals: David Beahm, an event designer based in New York City; the Rev. Judith Johnson, author of “The Wedding Ceremony Planner” (Sourcebooks, Inc., 2005); and the Rev. Jeddah Vailakis, an interfaith minister in New York.
