A theme wedding perhaps or medieval costumes for everyone?
* Your venue. Will your venue reflect or incorporate any part of your relationship?
The place where you met?
The magical moments of your first kiss?
Embracing nature by a lake, river or bushland?
* Having friends and relatives participate in your gay marriage ceremony?
Having someone write a piece of music or a song for you.
* Including a ritual to recognize traditional owners of the land, departed loved ones or to acknowledge children in your new relationship.
* Making your celebration especially intimate by eloping to a romantic hideaway locally or overseas.
* Giving each other bracelets or a gift in the Buddhist tradition.....instead of traditional rings.
* Singing of personally written vows to one another after keeping them a secret until the last moment.
* Arriving at your ceremony with all your guests in one happy noisy group!
* Participating in your ceremony while standing in the middle of a circle....being welcomed by each other's families after the pronouncement of you being husband and wife.....or legally recognized partners.
