Welcome to the Groom’s Guide to Wedding Day Part 3- the Ceremony. I can remember on my Wedding Day just being a bit nervous about standing in front people and expressing my love outward, but most certainly feeling awkward, at the time, about it. I feel as though your personality will play a big role on your emotion towards this special occasion. Allow yourself to just be you during the ceremony (and all day, really). Enjoy the moment!

Here is some inspiration and even a few funny clips. Hope this might help you envision your future ceremony, or reflect on your past ceremony. Heck, your ceremony might be on here!

The Grooms Guide to wedding day, The Ceremony

My man Darin made this Arbor, to set the beautiful backdrop of their Melrose Market Studios Wedding Ceremony. Way to go Darin! Amanda and I loved this because it brought in an even more personal aspect to the ceremony space!

You could practice putting the rings on each other, or leave it up to “I got this!” April and Dustin “got this!”

When you and your bros are all football! This is one of those moments I was glad to know that I am capable of laughing my butt off and shooting at the same time! A skill at which is a requirement for a wedding photographer, if you didn’t know.

So many joyous moments!!

Such a beautiful huppah!

Wow! Saber Arch exit, a military tradition, that salutes the newly married couple.

All smiles and laughs with Shelby and Kenneth!

Such a beautiful setting that Skamania Lodge provides.

How can you not smile from all the joy!

And last but not least, THE MAN, Nate here. Poor dude had a bloody nose and lost his contacts, all in the middle of his ceremony, and still managed to deliver his vows in true gentlemen form, and with a smile!  100% Nate!
