Wedding & Renewal of Vows Ceremonies

Wedding Ceremony

Ceremonies can be as quiet, discreet, elegant or large as you like. The point is you decide. Southwest Florida is well-known for its wide sand beaches. Did you realize that you can have a romantic sunrise or sunset ceremony right on the beach? Perhaps your dream is a garden setting, a gazebo, residence or yacht. You can even have your intimate wedding in our home. It is your wedding your way.

Our team can supply you with resources such as a sample ceremony to use "as is" or for you to personalize. Berry Counseling and Wedding Services has contemporary, traditional, religious and spiritual variations to share. We can even help you write your own unique ceremony, incorporating what is most meaningful for you. Include children, family, friends, rose petals, seashells, candles or something intimately special that reflects your uniqueness.

Share your vision with us and we will combine our ideas and resources to make your special day as stress free as possible.

If premarital counseling is desired or mandatory, our counseling staff can include this service as part of your package.

Our Renewal of Vows is a beautiful ceremony but somewhat different in procedure.
