Once my parents “gave” me away, I joined Mr. Joey, MOH Joey and BM Joey on the alter. Instead of having a full mass, we opted to do a Catholic blessing instead. Neither of us are regular mass goers and Mr. Joey is less Catholic than I am. We thought a blessing would be a nice compromise, plus, we needed to keep the ceremony short because of traffic concerns.
Father H. started with a brief welcome and opening prayer.
Apparently MOH Joey was already a little bored. :)
Mr. Joey and I decided that we would each ask a family member to read during the ceremony. Mr. Joey selected his cousin Cate and I selected my cousin Jules. Both did a wonderful job!
My sister and I sharing some kind of inside joke. I wish I could remember we’re smiling at.
We decided to exchange traditional vows. We dabbled with the idea of writing our own vows, but then decided the simple traditional ones were more our style.
A with these rings, we were wedded.
Did you write your own vows or go with the traditional ones.
