Creative Ceremony Rituals

When you start your wedding planning journey we will build your ceremony together with all the guidance you need. The script, special readings & musical pieces and your contribution, the vows (don't worry I'll show you how).

One more thing, the ritual ceremony that represents your union as a couple. It can include your guests or not, it may come from a family or cultural tradition or be the beginning of a new tradition that will be part of the definition of your marriage.

This is a ritual you choose and there are so many options. As a client of The Mallorca Wedding Project, recommendations will be made during our planning meets until you find the one that paints a picture of your relationship as a couple.

But since I love everyone equally, here's a Brochure of Ceremony Rituals for all the brides & grooms of the world.

Let your imagination jump into each story and see which would make your ceremony uniquely yours.

Here are my two favourites, a little creative and very cute ritual ceremonies.

Offering delicacies

A ritual that can be seen amongst many different cultures is an act of the couple feeding each other. In Persian marriages couples feed each other honey, for Hindus it`s sweet treats and some west African traditions involve the couple tasting four foods together representing sweetness (honey), bitterness (vinegar), sourness (lime), and heat (cayenne pepper). As honey is a local delicacy in Mallorca this is a perfect way to include a piece of local culture into a destination wedding. It also supports the local biosphere  and holds symbolism around the couple caring for each other, nourishing each other and wishing each other a sweet and long marriage. Local Mallorcan honey makes great favours, packaged in pocket sized glass jars with natural flavours of the island for guests to take home.

Bell Ringing

Bell ringing originates from a time in Irish culture when church weddings were forbidden and guests rang their own bells to create good energy, luck and a celebratory sound. I love this tradition as you can ask guests to bring their own bells or collect them and gift them to your guests as favours.

It is really meaningful to involve all of your guests in blessing your future together. Small bells tied to ribbon on a stick instead of confetti creates a beautiful photo opportunity during your recessional (leaving the ceremony).

Let`s talk about your ideas and come up with a beautiful ceremony unique for you and your beloved.
