“Vern worked with us to design the kind of ceremony we wanted, with excellent suggestions. We were really pleased. 

“Our families, from different back- grounds, were thrilled, and our friends keep talking about how special the wedding was.”

#HowToPlan
How to Plan Your Wedding

I'll ask you some basic questions so I can get started helping you plan. I'll refer you to some resources on this web site. 

We can meet by Zoom! 

Let’s find a time when all three of us can meet. 

I am never available Sunday mornings, but other times might be arranged. My daytime schedule is irregular and often fexible. Evenings are more difficult but might be possible.
Often I am available one or more of these times: 
    Tuesdays 7 pm  Central Time
    Fridays 10 am  Central Time
    Saturdays 8 am  Central Time
If none of these times works for you, let me know and we'll find a time!

Before we meet, please complete the planning points notes with as much information as you have currently. 

EMAIL PLANNING
If you would like to plan, or begin planning, your ceremony by email, please complete these planning points with as much information as you have currently and email them to me, vern@cres.org. 

If you wish a simple ceremony and do not wish a planning session, please complete the first 10 points with any additional information you wish to send.
