Wonderful wedding Officiant

Pastor David was a wonderful officiant and did a great job with our wedding ceremony. He was kind, professional and always quick to answer any questions. A few days before the wedding, we had scheduled a call which had answer many of our questions that helped us feel prepared and confident for our big day! He made the ceremony run smoothly and highly recommended him to any couple looking for an officiant!!

I've conducted over one thousand weddings over 30 years at 60+ venues and other locations. I've seen a lot and can give some feedback on your plans for your ceremony. I have some suggestions on how to deal with the heat, with phones, with pets, with vows, with additional symbolic elements, with time set for the ceremony, etc. etc. Text me at 512-845-3864 to start a conversation. Even if you don't use me, I can help you think through your ceremony well.

Phones? How to handle

There are three approaches:
1) No announcement/reminder and the couple just trusts that folks will not lean over to take pics. This is usually for really small, family ceremonies where the couple is laid-back.

2) Moderate announcement. "Just a friendly reminder to check to make sure your phone is turned off. If you do have yours out, just make sure to keep it at low-profile, so it won't end up in a really good picture.

3) Strict/Unplugged. "The bride and groom want you to be totally present and to leave your phones turned off and put away. Thanks so much!"

An variation on number 3 is...
4) "The bride and groom want you to be totally present and to leave your phones turned off and put away. There are one or two folks who have been designated to video or livestream with their phones. Thanks so much!"

If you have a videographer, then the strict one makes sense. But if you don't (and many couples just can't fit it in their budget) then you might want to designate one or two to have their phones out and video. The reason: you never know what cute things might happen that the photographer cannot capture and you will be thankful that someone was videoing. In that case, you would want to use number 4.
