"The love you share is born of your own unique experiences, the moments you've created together and the connection that only you two truly know.
Your ceremony should be a genuine reflection of how you see and feel about one another, not someone else's version.
I'll weave into your ceremony the joy, the journey and the love that has led you to marriage, to celebrate what carries you forward in your life together."
- Paul Howell
