Creating and Personalizing Ceremonies on Zoom
November 7, 2024
7 p.m. till 9 p.m. $80
In this online Advanced Wedding Officiant Course Archbishop Deb will help you:
-
gain confidence working with the wishes of your couple
-
discover ways in which to personalize any ceremony
-
create fun, imaginative theme weddings
-
write memorable vows that your couple will love
The session focuses on how to add power to your personalized wedding ceremonies. Why? Each couple's story is more than a chronology of events that they tell others; a personalized ceremony done well reveals the unspoken power of their story.
A well-done ceremony will delight the couple and inspire the guests. It will be the ceremony that people talk about and you will be the officiant who gets the raves.
Bring a notebook and prepare to have a great session!

We hear it all the time, “I hate my voice.” Comparing our voices to others with an enviable speaking voice can make us hesitate to speak in a group.
Whether you are an ordained minister considering online ministry or a wedding officiant preparing to celebrate marriages before a group, discomfort around your speaking voice can be a stopper. Help is here!
Join Bishop Deb for a 90-minute workshop to help you find your best voice.
