Get to know your officiant. They can be as formal or relaxed as you want. Some may insert a cute joke or two to break any nervous tension.

​

Practice your vows (with your MOH) before your wedding day to make sure everything flows nicely and you don't get caught up on words.

If you want guests to keep their phones away during the ceremony, ask the officiant to announce that it's an unplugged ceremony. You can also offer a 30-second photo op for guests to snap a shot once everyone gets to the altar.
