Our ceremony continued...
I designed our ceremony program using InDesign and had a local printer print and bind them for me. It was a simple, square, 12-page design highlighting each part of the program and what it represented. Part of this was done because I thought the more our guests understood, the more they might appreciate our ceremony. The other reason I designed our programs is because I simply enjoy this type of digital DIY project. We put translations of all the drummers' songs in the program. They meant things like: "Thank you all for coming; we are so glad you are here" and "Thank you Mother for educating me and preparing me to live my own life, separate from you and with my new husband." The drummers played and sang as the guests sat down and as our immediate family members and we walked to the beautiful altar at the front, complete with columns, ivy, and a trickling fountain. They also played as Bill and I washed each other's feet (which helped avoid what could have been awkward time gaps as we were taking off shoes, etc.)
