Traditional & Custom Wedding Ceremonies

It's official now!!! You are husband and wife and it's time to celebrate with your family and friends! As the finale to the wedding ceremony, the bride and groom traditionally lead the recessional out of the ceremony site and on to the celebration. While some of the wedding party may have walked in the processional alone, during the recessional, everyone generally pairs up.
