| QUESTION OF INTENT |
| The Question of Intent or "Charge" to the couple is a very traditional ceremony component and precedes the wedding vows. It helps to keep the ceremony flowing smoothly. More commonly known as the "I do's", the Question of Intent allows the Bride and Groom to formally confirm their intention to marry one another. Whether you choose a civil charge or one with reference to the Divine, the Charge or Question of Intent is a wonderful way to customize your ceremony. |
