Wedding Rehearsals

A wedding rehearsal allows you to walk through the elements of your ceremony.  The typical items covered during the rehearsal include: the processional (the walking in portion), where the wedding party will stand, the order of the ceremony, the “kiss” and the recessional (the walking out portion).  For some couples the rehearsal is done so they can relax and have peace of mind going in to the ceremony.  Rehearsals are optional, and typically are not performed for most beach weddings.  Larger formal weddings and those with a large wedding party usually find a rehearsal more beneficial. Upon request I will gladly attend or coordinate your rehearsal.  REHEARSALS START AT $75.
