 Brittany and Tyler were married at the Cardinal Room in Lebanon, IN. With all the crazy weather we have been having in Indiana I'm always so happy when we get a dry day. If It's cloudy or cold, I can deal with it. Just not rain. We've had so much rain! Sunday morning it rained and rained and Sunday afternoon it rained some more. And then, it stopped! The clouds rolled back and the waters parted and Brittany and Tyler had a beautiful wedding day! The Cardinal Room is set in the middle of a golf course northwest of Indy. It's a beautiful, quiet spot for a wedding. They have lovey outdoor areas for your ceremony and cocktail hour but it's also very well set up very well to accommodate the weather. Their outdoor ceremony area is covered and they can drop down plastic windows just in case. The banquet room itself is HUGE so you can get married inside without being cramped if you choose to get married cabaret-style - I've performed several weddings there cabaret style. I always love going to the Cardinal room because the staff is very friendly and attentive. Couples always give great feedback. The Wedding Ceremony Brittany decided to walk herself down the aisle and instead of asking the traditional "Who gives this woman to be married" We asked "Who presents this woman and this man to be married to each other?" The presentation of the both the bride and groom by their parents, friends and family is very popular this season. While father's are still escorting their daughter down the aisle and giving them away in age old wedding tradition, I think the trend of including the groom in this part of the ceremony is here to stay. Click here for more options for the "giving away of the bride and groom." Brittany and Tyler shared wedding vows they wrote for each other in a non-traditional way. They took turns sharing their vows. You can read what they wrote below. Victoria: “Ladies and gentlemen, please stand for the bride” Brittany walks down the aisle Tyler comes forth to receive her Victoria: “Please be seated” (parents remain standing). Who presents this woman and this man to be married to each other? All parents say, “We do.” Welcoming Other ways to welcome your guests We have been invited here today to witness and celebrate the uniting in marriage of Brittany and Tyler. They are taking the first step of their new beginning; their new life together. The ability and desire for one human being to love another is perhaps the most precious and fulfilling gift that has been entrusted to us. It is an all-consuming task, a lifelong endeavor — the journey we’ve been preparing for all of our lives. Loving someone is a reason to stretch beyond our limits, to become more for the sake of the other. It is to look into the soul of your beloved and accept what you see. Loving is the ultimate commitment which challenges humans to become all that we are meant to be. As they join in marriage today, Bride and Groom are announcing to the world that they are welcoming that challenge. This event is shared, if in a different way, by those who have passed beyond this life.
