Reading vows before ceremony

A private vow ceremony is a small ceremony between the two of you, in private on a special date before the wedding, during the first look, or vow renewal.

If first looks have you weepy, then this one is for you. There is something extra special about those quite moments of togetherness before the wedding festivities kick into high gear. So even if you want to keep the first look on reserve for the ceremony, there are lots of first look alternatives to be considered, like this sweet vow reading. #ruffledblog
