Wedding rehearsal for Tim's nephew's wedding was last night. Nephew and fiancee asked me to write the whole ceremony, because they just want the boilerplate standard vows, etc. So I have a few paragraphs of introductory stuff on their relationship, love, and whatnot, and then I grabbed vows from the internet.
But here's the problem when you let me write your ceremony: for my own wedding, we didn't include the "Who gives this woman" part, because it wasn't right for me personally, for a lot of reasons. So I completely forgot to put it in Nephew and Fiancee's ceremony. Fortunately, the wedding coordinator at the venue mentioned it when we got to that point of the ceremony, and I grabbed a pen and scribbled it in, so it's all good.
When I got home and told Tim about it, he said "That's what happens when you tell your feminist aunt that she can write the whole ceremony. They're lucky you aren't ending the ceremony by yelling 'Hillary Clinton forever!' " (My reply was "...wait, you mean I *shouldn't* do that???")
This wedding ceremony is a stark contrast to 2 years ago when I officiated for our BFFs, because they wrote every single word of their ceremony, and all I had to do was read it without crying. This one I had to scramble around the internet to come up with something meaningful (and short, because the wedding is outdoors, in the sun, with a high of 90 forecast for tomorrow, FML).
