What kind of marriages do you do? What is the ceremony like?

Oooops no, that was a prior life. :eek: 8O
The one I performed last summer was a non denominational civil ceremony. I guess it would all depend on what the bride & groom wanted. ;) As a minister I can perform any type of marriage.
Thanks for asking!
Peace
Twig

Tell me more about sacrificing the chickens! Do you have a voodoo
newsletter? I am interested in your cult and would like to be a
member. Here is my credit card number 7777-4444-5555-1234.
I always tell the hospital where I go that my religion is voodoo
and that I will require a live chicken weekly for my religous practices!
Its a catholic hospital. heheheh also tell them sometimes that I
am a branch davidian!

I am a minister of the Druidic Path. My ordination is through the Universal Life Church. That's right, the "instant minister" church you hear of.
!ULC Link! (http://www.ulc.org/)
As a person that likes to cover all my bases I did a lot of research into the legality of it and By the Gods, the Supreme Court itself upheld their authority to legally do this.
In the case of the couple I married last summer. Neither Fawn nor Brian cared for parts of the "traditional" vows. The bride still wore a beautiful white gown and the groom and his party were still smartly dressed in contemporary tuxes. In all, a very traditional wedding to the 30+ people assembled under the trees in Forest Park and any onlookers.
All I did was change the vows somewhat......and I can't find my disk copy,DAMN! Well, gone was all the "Blessings from above" as there was feelings of agnosticism and polythesim to deal with. Instead, they made their vows to each other. I had no problem with this due to the fact that I see marriage as a contract between two people, not a pact with the Gods (unless you both desire ;)).
Does that help a little more? :D
Peace

*floats around with heart eyes at the mention of a wedding*
but seriously though. . . . o.O; don't people think that ULC people are flakes? is that just a rumor? I mean, I don't think yo'ure a flake, I just don't quite understand the whole concept of priesthood in 3 minutes. . . -_-; No offense, it just sounds odd to me.

Like All things in life, it is what You make it. (typical druidic answer.) I take this very seriously, others don't.
Besides, where else could a Druid go to get Ordained? :)
Peace,
Twig
