You are engaged, and it's now time to start planning the all-important marriage ceremony at which you will become husband and wife!

The first, most important, task is to decide on the type of ceremony you wish to have: religious, civil, interfaith, humanist...

Once you know the venue, you will be able to choose a ceremony officiant. This will most likely be your priest, minister or rabbi at a religious wedding, and it should be someone who you feel comfortable with.

The details will gradually start coming together, and you and your future spouse should think about the words that will be spoken and sung at your wedding: hymns, readings, psalms, vows...
