During your wedding rehearsal<\/strong>, you and everyone involved in your wedding ceremony<\/strong> will learn all of the important details central to the beauty and perfection of this most important part of your wedding day. You\u2019ll arrange your bridal party members\u2019 lineup, practice the processional, practice your vows and the symbolic or cultural elements of your ceremony, and make any last-minute changes you desire.<\/p>\n

In years past, the wedding rehearsal<\/strong> was in the hands of the officiant who was in charge at the house of worship, or a wedding coordinator<\/strong> stepped in to run the practice session. Now, we\u2019re seeing a fresh, new trend of a team<\/em> effort<\/em> encompassing the guidance of several authorities at the rehearsal. Our New Jersey wedding couples enjoy the input from specialists in each portion and style element of the ceremony.<\/p>\n

The wedding coordinator handles the bridal party lineup and partner pairings, helps the child attendants learn how to walk down the aisle and where to stand, and instructs any musicians, readers, cultural performers and other players in the wedding ceremony<\/strong>. With a practiced hand and a level of authority that the excited circle of friends and family members listen to with great respect, the wedding coordinator<\/strong> also keeps you on an efficient schedule, so that you can get to your rehearsal dinner<\/strong> on time, with all crucial instructions received.<\/p>\n

If you do not have a wedding coordinator<\/strong> working on your wedding, our banquet managers<\/strong> can happily step in to guide your group through every step of your ceremony held on our wedding garden<\/strong> grounds or in one of our ballrooms, and we too will keep you on schedule.<\/p>\n

The officiant is another important member of your wedding rehearsal <\/strong>team, leading you through the spoken elements of your ceremony, providing calming guidance and often a sense of humor that puts everyone at ease.<\/p>\n

And of course, you<\/em> are also a member of the rehearsal dinner<\/strong> team, as the highest authority in the creation of your wedding ceremony. You can ask questions, request modifications, and let the officiant know if you have something already printed in your wedding program \u2013 such as a particular reading — that needs to be added into the ceremony.<\/p>\n

Our wedding couples from Passaic County, Morris County, Somerset County and all other state-wide regions, plus our growing number of New York City and Long Island brides and grooms, actively co-create their wedding ceremonies, finalizing their plans during their all-important wedding rehearsal<\/a><\/strong>, and they can then enjoy the peace of mind of knowing that all of the plans are set, and all of the participants know what to do. All that\u2019s left to do is relax, enjoy the evening, and know that your wedding planning team<\/a>, <\/strong>especially including our dedicated banquet directors,<\/strong> will protect your plans and run everything wonderfully on your wedding day.<\/p>\n

Best,<\/p>\n
