Pre-Ceremony Announcements

Things to know before we begin...

Wedding Ceremony Scripts Marry Me In Indy! LLC
Making announcements before, during and after a wedding ceremony is very common.  Sometimes it's as simple as asking couples to be seated so the ceremony can begin.  Depending on what is going on after the ceremony, those few minutes before the ceremony can be a time when you have everyone's attention. As a wedding officiant, I think it can be a good time to welcome everyone and set the tone of the ceremony. ​

The Unplugged Ceremony
You may want to ask guests to turn their phones off or refrain from taking pictures during the ceremony. That's called an "Unplugged Ceremony."  You can read script options for an unplugged ceremony announcement by clicking below.

The Photo Moment
You may want to announce that there will be a "Photo Moment" at some point during the ceremony when everything will stop and everyone is allowed to take a picture of the couple and then put their phones away. You can read script ideas for a photo moment by clicking below.​

Occasionally, we will ask the guests NOT to stand for the bride because the venue us uniquely shaped and the photographer wants to make sure they can get a good picture of the bride walking down the aisle.  

You may want to let couples know what they will be doing after the ceremony, where they need to go, or what they need to do.
