Wedding Officiant: How To Read Your Wedding Ceremony Script Like A Pro!

As a wedding officiant/celebrant coach and creator of Unboring!Wedding Academy, I get asked at least once a week: “How much of the wedding ceremony script can I read? Is it even okay to read it at all? How much of the script do I have to memorize?”

I love being the bearer of good news, so…

I just found this video and I will say, after just about 200 weddings, Im glad to know I am doing it right! 😂. My script is in 14 pt font with 1.15 – 1.2 line spacing. The line spacing makes a big difference in readability. The couple’s name is in a larger font and bold.
I have invested in a professional lapel mic which gets clipped to the end of my ceremony binder. It does a good enough job amplifying my voice as well as the couple.

Thank you for all of your tips. Over a year ago I officiated my first wedding, my oldest son, and it went great. I received many compliments and will be officiating my nephew’s wedding this Saturday. I couldn’t have done it without your help. Thanks so much.

I was ordained 7 years ago, more or less as a joke, and never thought twice about it since. When friends of ours said they were getting married, I said as a joke, “you know I’m ordained, right?” Not thinking she would take me seriously, and I wasn’t planning on doing it for real, but here I am, watching your videos, and preparing a script for a wedding that will have about 200-250 guests! 😲 Nothing like jumping in the deep end right off the bat! 🤣 Depending on how it goes, I plan on doing it as a “retirement” gig when that time comes. Thanks for the very informative tips, from the great state of Texas! 😁

I noticed …. In your binder you had words on both sides of pages. Is that correct?

I love the breaking it up hint. I am also considering numbering so that I know I just finished section 3 and can now go to section 4. Your thoughts?

Do you have a video on how to create and craft a well spoken wedding story?

Hi Mark! Thank you for the videos. I have poured over your videos to prepare myself for my best friend’s wedding here in about 10 days. I was so excited when she asked me but then I started to panic. After watching your videos I am feeling a lot more confident. Thanks again from California.

Hey Mark, I finally did it! Just officiated my first wedding this weekend for my best friend. I watched all your videos and I crafted the script and ceremony using your guidance. I even had to explain a few traditional Jewish portions of the ceremony as it was a half Jewish wedding. Thank you for all these videos. I couldn’t have done it without you.
