Wedding Planning Decisions, This vs That with Kelly McWilliams
Wedding Planning Decision: Presenting vs Giving Away the Bride
Get out your tissues because this one is going to have tears rolling down your face. In this ceremony planning episode, Greg and I discuss honoring the long standing tradition of the father of the bride giving his daughter to the groom versus presenting her to him. Once we discussed why or why not, Greg offered the actual script he did for his daughters weddings that were, oh my gosh, beyond heartfelt. I was BALLING! Oh but it gets better. Greg also wrote a song for their father daughter dance as a surprise. You'll get to hear it at the end of the episode. You can swipe Gregs script and browse the rest of the website for the full story and officiants script. You can listen to the song here. Absolutely let us know if you plan on incorporating either - we'd love to know!
