Many couples don’t see the value of rehearsals nowadays, but when a wedding involves many attendants a rehearsal can make the difference between orderly grace and controlled confusion. This has been confirmed to me over and over. Once a wedding begins I am bound to the front with little ability to guide the procession, positioning and recessing of participants. Brides that book rehearsals enjoy the assurance that their wedding will truly approximate their dreams. Last night, as I led the rehearsal for Kristina and Jake, I was left with the fulfillment that all will perform to their optimum, and the peaceful delight in Kristina’s face was very satisfying — we had enjoyed moments of fun-filled creativity together.
