Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How to Be a Wedding Celebrant" is a concise and insightful guide for anyone interested in officiating wedding ceremonies. This manual provides a comprehensive overview of what it takes to become a successful wedding celebrant, distinguishing between legally-binding wedding ceremonies and wedding-celebration style ceremonies. In various countries, such as Australia, civil wedding celebrants have the authority to legally marry couples. However, as of February 2023, the UK is still revising its wedding laws to potentially allow civil celebrants to perform legally-binding marriages. Currently, in the UK, only registered practitioners like registrars and religious clerics are permitted to conduct legal marriages. This guide is particularly useful for those interested in officiating wedding celebrations, where the couple is already legally married and looking to celebrate their union in a more personalized and romantic setting. These ceremonies can be held in diverse locations, such as elegant hotels, private gardens, beaches, or woodlands, and often include a larger circle of friends and family, along with faith elements as per the couple's wishes. "How to Be a Wedding Celebrant" addresses the profession's unregulated nature in the UK and other countries, emphasizing the importance of professionalism, preparation, and training for those who wish to pursue a career in celebrancy. The book provides practical advice on setting fees, preparing for ceremonies, and the significance of the initial interview and drafting process. It highlights the celebrant's role in creating a memorable and unique experience for the couple and their guests. Whether you're considering a professional career or simply conducting a ceremony for a loved one, this book equips you with the knowledge and tools needed to perform a beautiful and meaningful wedding celebration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weddings are big business! Becoming a wedding officiant or wedding celebrant is easier than ever, and that means more competition for the services you offer. Many new officiants, though, have never had to market a business or service. Since certification companies rarely include much, if anything, about how to market celebrants' services, independent celebrants are at a disadvantage. This book gives celebrants a wealth of ideas to use in marketing their business as well as conducting it, for everything you do to get your service noticed, booked, or appreciated is marketing. This book guides celebrants though the nuts and bolts of setting up a professional practice as a wedding celebrant. Topics covered include:-developing promotional materials and how to use them, -creating a website that highlights your unique approach to celebrancy, -social media and other online opportunities, -getting referrals,-networking, and more.About the AuthorDeborah Vaughan has more than 30 years of experience celebrating weddings and also trains wedding officiants. Since 1999, she has also provided business owners including wedding celebrants and vendors with marketing services from consulting to copywriting. "I am a helper by nature," Vaughan notes. "So I wanted to offer celebrants, especially new celebrants, a host of workable ideas that don't cost thousands - or even hundreds - of dollars to implement. Some techniques are common knowledge, such as using social media to advertise your business. Knowing what to do with your Pinterest account, though, makes all the difference to your results."

Book excerpt: Gravitas and fun get married within these pages, and we're all invited Certified lifecycle celebrant Christopher Shelley is on a mission to revolutionize the wedding ceremony—or at least to make it as enjoyable as the reception. In Best. Ceremony. Ever., he will forever alter the way couples and wedding pros think about tying the knot. Shelley, who has officiated hundreds of weddings, walks couples and officiants through working together, from setting the atmosphere to telling an unforgettable love story. He shares questions for the couple to ask themselves before meeting with their officiant, and offers a wedding vow workshop and complete sample ceremonies. Shelley cares about the guests as much as the couple getting married, and his friendly, entertaining guide is a treasure chest of ideas to make guests laugh, cry, and then laugh at how much they’re crying. From announcing the wedding (insert cliff-hanger) to selecting venues (consider breweries!) to choreographing processionals (dance party!) to explosive recessionals (balloon drop!), opportunities to surprise guests abound.

In this updated edition of Offbeat Bride, Stallings humorously recounts the story of the original offbeat wedding-hers-and shares anecdotes and advice from dozens of other nontraditional couples. She also includes a chapter on budget weddings in today's weak economy, along with sidebars, tips, tricks, and planner encouragement to help you figure out your special day. What results is a combination of hilarious wedding stories and tons of helpful how-tos-a perfect mash-up of memoir and handbook. At once practical and enjoyable, Offbeat Bride validates choosing the funky, different, and offbeat over the traditional, and leads couples through the planning process-from unique ideas on how to announce their engagement all the way to answering the question, "So, how's married life?" Stallings is the ultimate guide to the alternative wedding of your dreams, and with Offbeat Bride, she brings you a book that serves both as an encouragement and celebration of aisles less traveled.
