A wedding is the
bride's very special day.
For her maximum enjoyment, a bride should not be
concerned about how her bridal party performs, especially in larger weddings
that aspire to pageantry. A bride should be free to relax and
enjoy her wedding while others manage the details and disruptions.
Since
during the ceremony, the Officiant is at the front with the groom, unable to
ensure a processional proceeds as planned, this package includes a Wedding Processional Coordinator.
The emotional impact
of a wedding processional
It is my belief that the wedding processional, as we know it, is
designed to be an emotional high point for weddings. When little girls
dream of their wedding day, what do they imagine? -- usually their
regal-like steps through the center of all assembled guests. And what
does she envisage preceding her? -- a coordinated entourage of beauty and grace. And then there
is the connection between bride and groom, eyes moist with love, lips
quivering -- heart-throbbing devotion and delight.
The wedding
processional sets the stage for the wedding
Because it
comes at the beginning, the processional sets the tone for the
ceremony. It sets a foundation, peaceful or perplexed, for all that
ensues. For the sake of the wedding and the dreams of the bride, what
then could be more important than ensuring that her wedding
processional fulfills her hopes and aspirations. This the sole purpose
of a Processional Coordinator.
Services
of a Processional Coordinator during
the wedding rehearsal
The Processional Coordinator manages the bridal party -- their
assembly, organization and orderly processing to prepare all
attendants to perform as instructed during the actual wedding.
Services of a Processional Coordinator at the wedding ceremony
The Processional Coordinator meets the bridal party, supervises their
assembly, arranges their appearance, dresses and gown for maximum
impact, troubleshoots timing, space, pace, doors and unexpected
occurrences, for the best possible presentation of the bridal party,
especially of the bride.
Venue
Coordinators often do not assist with ceremonies
Do not assume
that the person through whom you booked the venue will take responsibility
for the orderly processing of your wedding rehearsal and wedding ceremony. Sometimes they
do; sometimes they don't. Ask to be
sure before you decide concerning the use or non-use of a Processional
Coordinator.
A
Processional Coordinator is a low cost wedding day alternative to a wedding planner
If you do not
have a wedding planner and the person responsible for the venue will
not supervise the rehearsal and ceremony proceedings, your wedding may benefit from
the services of a Processional Coordinator. A Processional Coordinator is
a low cost alternative to wedding planner services the day of your
wedding. A Processional Coordinator could well make the difference
between a processional with ragged edges and one presented with
precision.
A
Processional Coordinator for
peaceful enjoyment of your wedding
With a
Processional Coordinator, a bride can relax in the assurance that
every possible effort is being expended to ensure that the
processional proceeds with meticulous pageantry that appropriately
accents her arrival.

As stated in the pageantry
section, due to these concerns
The best possible processional is a priority
In my opinion, the
importance and benefits of a Processional Coordinator's ministry to
the bridal party in those instants in time far exceed extras that
might be purchased to enhance the occasion. Other aspects of the
wedding will soon be forgotten but the memory of that moment lasts a
lifetime.
