In this wedding ceremony blog I share about unique wedding ceremonies, nonreligious wedding ceremonies, LGBTQIA+ wedding ceremonies, Jew—ish wedding ceremonies, spiritual-but-not-religious wedding ceremonies, secular wedding ceremonies, mixed and multi-faith and fusion wedding ceremonies, earth-based and neo-pagan wedding ceremonies, boho wedding ceremonies, modern wedding ceremonies, and outdoor wedding ceremonies. This wedding blog includes thought-provoking content about the initiatory rite of passage of marriage, about why ceremony matters, about creating wedding ceremonies that are inclusive, relevant and non-appropriative, and about some ugly truths about the wedding industry. I also share some unique wedding poems and nonreligious wedding ceremony readings. This blog also features some of the my personal favorite wedding venues in Santa Cruz, Soquel, Capitola, Aptos, Felton, Ben Lomond, Los Gatos, Woodside, Big Sur, Carmel, Monterey, Half Moon Bay, as well as some of the best local wedding photographers in the wedding industry!
