OK, I found it-however, does anyone have any other suggestions? This booklet is 2 dollars a piece(could run into some serious money) and I am looking for something small and quick to read so that it doesn't become a distraction during the ceremony. This booklet would probably be lovely for people to take home and look at afterwards, but that's not so much what I'm looking for.
Any suggestions would be very appreciated.
Michele

Hi,

I found several booklets that people did for their weddings on the internet. You could do it as simple or as elaborate as you like and it wouldn't be that expensive if you printed it up yourself. It can also be as fun as you want to make it. There are probably other examples out there too but I was in a rush to post this tonight.

The Byzantine Seminary Press (see link on this Home page) has a leaflet (#56 under Miscellaneous - pamphlets). They are 25 cents each. They also have the book "Ritual of Marriage with Divine Liturgy - people" for $1 each. Those are what I used for my wedding. They have a small blurb throughout for the symbolism (crowning, etc.)

Pretty much ... if people are interested, they'll read it. If not, they'll just watch with interest.

You used to be able to get them imprinted with the coupels' names (for an extra charge), but I don't know if they still do that or not.

Thanks for the help. Those websites are awesome! It turns out the father of the groom is putting something together but I really appreciate every little bit of information to help me understand this process.
