Personalizing Your Ceremony
Once you have chosen Reverend Joplin to be your officiant he will schedule an interview with you. There must be a fit between all three of you. After your initial interview, if you choose to work with him, you will be involved in a couple of additional meetings, some details of which can be handled via e-mail, phone and fax.
In those meetings Reverend Joplin will come to know you well, all the while building the bonds of trust and confidence that make your minister-couple relationship strong. He asks questions that pertain to every area of your life, strengthening your awareness of your relationship and helping to create personal vows.
Reverend Joplin provides an array of information, formats, sample vows, ring vows, ideas, readings, poetry, etc. which support what you envision for your special day.
He encourages you to write your own vows, assists you in that process when necessary, asks you to bring into your ceremony any readings, symbols, etc. that are unique to you--especially never-seen-before ideas.
From beginning to end, Reverend Joplin creates and designs with you, your own personal, custom ceremony, whether it is 20 minutes long, or 45 minutes long. Reverend Joplin takes all the time necessary to accomplish your mutual goals, so you will never feel hurried in your consultations with him.
