You my friend are a “God Send” There are lots of videos covering this subject but nobody does it with as much fun and sincerity as you do. Thank you Mark🤗
Rehearsals are so important! I start the rehearsal by having the Bride place everyone in their spots for where they will be for the ceremony. Parents and children seated. We then block out the ceremony. Practice the recessional. Then we practice the processional followed by the recessional again.
Doing my first wedding in 7 days. Watched most of the videos already but I'm binge watching them again. New information with every watch. Thanks Mark! I definitely feel confident going into rehearsal and the wedding. Thanks again!!
Thanks for your fantastic knowledge, I'm going to study here in Australia in the new year and I'm so exited to start. I will b watching more of your fantastic videos, thanks again 😀
Awesome advice for the rehearsal... very practical! Similar to what you said, we're planning a talk through, walk through, run through concept for our rehearsal dinner. We can't rehearse at our venue the day before, so my thought is to try to make things as similar as possible in other ways. E.g.- playing the songs we'll walk in to during the ceremony so everyone understands what it will sound like. Hopefully that'll help reduce anxiety and keep things on track. Again, great video, and thanks for the help!
@@unboringwedding Sure, is there any standard position for the groom and when entering the aisle which side should he be at,having in mind he is getting in with the bestman, left or right?
Do you do what you talked about before or after the dinner? I’m assuming before the dinner because people will be less responsive after eating and drinking.
Nossir - and thanks so much for asking!! No one is more qualified on the planet to run the wedding rehearsal than the officiant or celebrant of THAT ceremony. Do not outsource rehearsing to someone who won't be up there leading the charge... and left holding the bag if something goes awry. When you lead the rehearsal, you inspire confidence and cover details in a way that can never happen if you leave it to the planner. Thanks for the great question!
Hi Mark, I just want to reach out to tell you, that your videos have enriched my officiating experience. Is your email the one listed on contacts here? R
rehearsal for a wedding is the most stupid idea I ever heard a wedding is a serious thing, not a Hollywood show. It is about love and serious engagement of two persons. I didn't need rehearsal to get married and to say yes. Do you also do divorce rehearsal? Making love rehearsal?
I was very concerned about the rehearsal but now am very confident. Thank You!

It just occurred to me, do you have a back up method of transportation to the wedding the day of? Like just encase your car breaks.
Do you do what you talked about before or after the dinner? I’m assuming before the dinner because people will be less responsive after eating and drinking.
Mark Allan Groleau free food and drinks are the best motivations in the world!
Isn’t the rehearsal done by the wedding planner?

Do you give the couple a copy of the entire script beforehand?
