lisafelicia Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Marraiges here in 3DXland I am officially ordained as a priestess and although marriages here are virtual, i try to provide a semblance of the joy and passion of the union that marriage brings to the environment here. it can be a fun and wondrous thing to be married. but it can also ruin a good friendship unless ground rules are established to cement the events and hook ups that invariable happen here. I can perform many denominations of ceremonies. The one presented here is my simple ceremony and takes only a few minutes. i sometime do it in Pink text to differentiate it from the normal flow of conversation. some simple rules to follow are for the one accepting to NOT accept immediately so that pictures can be taken. Once the ring is accepted, they kiss and the should NOT break the kiss for awhile as everyone applauds and congratulations are offered. The petals fall during the kiss and STOP once the kiss is broken. I can play wedding songs and usually stop after about 30 minutes and people have gotten seated. The words (below) then go on in silence (not tunes) normally. Doing the ceremony in pink text is a nice touch. I then restart my stream with tunes until another DJ takes over the spinning. moving to another room for the reception is good OR a new room is loaded while i open my room for an interim place to hang until a new room is loaded. Officiant and partners should be in group chat so the flow and info goes smoothly. no others need be there unless maid of honor, etc have cues and need to sync the flow or actions. I need to be prompted to continue after VOWS usually so there is no big dead space. I added some hearts at the end of mine to save the prompting and show end of vows. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Simple Wedding Ceremony:::::::::: person1, person2 GreetingThank you all for coming. Please all have a seat and we can begin.

lisafelicia Posted November 15, 2017 Author Share Posted November 15, 2017 officiated a double ceremony recently and it was fun. A few things went wrong which prompts me to post this entry. It all comes down to planning and organizing and rehearsing. With plenty of time before the event LOL. There should be an organizer responsible to make decisions and organize the event. A focal point for the smooth flow of timing and actions. the prginzer/wedding planner should work closely with the bride or groom to make sure everything as as THEY want it because it is their special day. working withthe matron of honor as also a good thing as she can take on many of the organiztion and schedule of the participants for the rehearsal and event advertising Organizing activities should include: 1.securing a room ceremony, alter, chapel the room should be big enough to accomodate enough people but not too big or it looks lame. Lines for the bridesmaids and groomsmen to stand on all army like makes for great wedding pics. pads for the two partners to stand on and face each other also helps facilitate the positioning. the comfy chairs are good cause many attendees have partners to sit with. make sure the room is easy to navigate in so peeps don't get frustrated and it takes forever to get all the butts in the seats 2. securing a reception room - if it is attached to the chapel is best so people don't have to go elsewhere after the ceremony, many may decide to not come to reception OR many will attend the reception instead of the wedding LOL. I have seen separate reception rooms work well for somehard call to make 3. Advertising - An announcement in Events forum is good or a poster in your profile pics that you can also send to all friends as an invitation. A poster is nice and you can put it up in your profile so your friends can see it and plan. Not everyone gets on Forums to see whats going on. 4. Rehearsal - a good time to get colors for all the brides maids and grooms men to get coordinated/ a few days before is best time to do the rehearsal as it usually takes 2 to 3 times longer than the ceremony. Its also a good time to familiarize everyone with the room layout and know where the DJ stand and Radio is. I have seen people load unfamiliar rooms and did not know where the radio was for the DJ's links 5. time of the event should be solid and agreed by all. Check forums events so you don't conflict with other pre-advertised partys this is a work in progress as i continue to help with weddings Rodin and TamaraJ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
