  • Your Wedding Ceremony Worksheet
    Your Wedding Ceremony Worksheet Whether you are planning a large wedding or a small elopement, the ceremony is the heart of the big day. You want it to be just right. We’ve got you covered! Your officiant will provide you with great ceremony ideas and this quick guide will help you be prepared. You want to have everything you need when you are at the ceremony. Officiant Details Your officiant can help guide you through most of it. Be sure to keep their information handy. Officiant Name: Donna Lynn Officiant Cell: 859-900-3569 Officiant Website: https://officiantdonna.com Ceremony Prep Checklist Find out the order of the ceremony from your officiant. You should have a copy of the wedding ceremony script so you know how it will flow. Some couples choose to not see the ceremony script until their wedding day, and that is perfectly fine. You should at least have the ceremony outline to review. If you are having special elements like sand blending, love lock, unity puzzle, etc., get the items needed. Etsy and Pinterest are great places to look for ideas, as well as Michaels or Hobby Lobby. If you are doing a handfasting, buy or make handfasting cords. They should be chosen carefully and carry meaning. o Practice the handfasting ceremony. There are different ways to do the wrapping, so find one that resonates with you. See this Ultimate Handfasting Guide for more tips. Remind the photographer that the paperwork signing needs to happen immediately after the ceremony and before the photo shoot starts.

When Two Become One: Sacramental Woes And Theological Anxiety In Medieval Representations Of Marriage Abstract This dissertation traces the long, winding, and problematic road along which marriage became a sacrament of the Church. In so doing, it identifies several key problems with marriage’s ability to fulfill the sacramental criteria laid out in Peter Lombard’s Sentences: that a sacrament must signify a specific form of divine grace, and that it must directly bring about the grace that it signifies. While, on the basis of Ephesians 5, theologians had no problem identifying the symbolic power of marriage with the spiritual union of Christ and the Church, they never fully succeeded in locating a form of effective grace, placing immense stress upon marriage’s status as a signifier. As a result, theologians and canonists found themselves unable to deal with several social aspects of marriage that threatened this symbolic capacity, namely concubinage and the remarriage of widows and widowers.

  • Not Your Mother's Library Transcript Episode 26
    Not Your Mother’s Library Transcript Episode 26: Wedding Celebrations (Brief intro music) Rachel: Hello, and welcome to Not Your Mother's Library, a readers’ advisory podcast from the Oak Creek Public Library. I’m Rachel. Leah: And I’m Leah. Rachel: This month, we would like to talk about wedding celebrations. We know that many ideas for your special ceremony can be found online, but never forget that your local library also stocks plenty of books on this subject. These are helpful if you are looking for high quality, full-color photo spreads, step-by-step guides, or other details that you might not get from an idea board on Pinterest. Checking out free books is a lot more cost effective than purchasing glossy magazines that you’ll eventually throw out, too. Although, now that I mention it, the library also has wedding-related e-Magazines available through Overdrive and Libby. Why limit yourself? Leah: To kick off the episode, Rachel and I thought we’d talk a little about each of our weddings, and I’m going first. And, well, to be honest, mine hasn’t happened yet. At least, not at the time we’re working on this episode. By the time you’re listening, it will have! We’re tying the knot on June 14th in beautiful Colorado. Neither my fiancé or I wanted anything large, and our families were on board with waiting to celebrate with us at a later date. So, we contacted an elopement coordinator who helped us plan everything other than where we’d stay, what we wore, and a cake.

  • A Phenomenological Study of Hmong Women's Experience
    ABSTRACT A PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY OF HMONG WOMEN’S EXPERIENCE WITH FORCED MARRIAGE IN THE HMONG CULTURE This exploratory qualitative research study utilizes feminist standpoint theory and shame cultures to explore the experience of Hmong women who married young by force of the family, due to a situation that is considered taboo in the Hmong culture. Three situational taboos were considered in this study: (a) premarital pregnancy, (b) bringing the girl home later than the parent(s) liking, and (c) visiting the girl without parental knowledge. Semi-structured interviews with five Hmong women residing in the Central Valley of California were conducted. This study is guided by the principles of hermeneutic phenomenology as described by Van Manen (as cited in Creswell, 2007) and Creswell (2007). Three themes emerged in the study: shame, freedom, and resilience. Findings indicate that shame and the value placed on saving face in the Hmong culture were contributing factors to their forced marriage.

  • Framing Elopement in a Romani Community
    Journal of Law and Social Research (JLSR) No.4 2013, pp. 49-64 Našardi Bori and her Stories: Framing Elopement in a Romani Community Zoran Lapov Introduction The sociocultural heterogeneity of Roma people is closely connected with their geographical diffusion and a variety of religious, linguistic, aesthetic, economic and other factors. In fact, the idea of “Romani marriage” cannot be generalized as a pan-Romani characterizing feature either. The same applies to elopement, which has been occasionally recorded in the literature dealing with Romani marriage patterns. The tangible reality of the fieldwork calls our attention to a particular community encircled by other Roma groups and a larger sociocultural context. The present is an excerpt of the ongoing research, commenced in the late 1990s with southern Gurbets1, viz. Muslim Roma from Kosovo and Macedonia.2 Travelling in a transnational space between their native lands and some of their emigration destinations (esp. Italy), the paper addresses the practice of elopement undertaken by young women and relevant customary regulations. Being the research based on an extensive fieldwork, selected case studies are included as an empirical support to the main corpus of the paper. Selecting a life partner, selecting a marriage alliance Marriage is an all-important institution for many Roma. Relying on family consent, the success of a conjugal tie requires no formalizations from external authorities: its “legal force” is conferred by the abijáv (bijáv) ceremony and related ritual contents, while its regularization is done months, even years after the wedding. The resultant married life is as much acceptable as run in conformity to the in-community prescripts.3 The tradition claims a marriage to be contracted by proposal.

  • Marriage Dynamics in Central Asia Lesia Nedoluzhko Victor
    Between Tradition and Modernity: Marriage Dynamics in Central Asia Lesia Nedoluzhko Victor Agadjanian Abstract The demographic literature on union formation in post-communist Europe typically documents retreat from marriage and increase in cohabitation. However, sociological and anthropological studies of post-Soviet Central Asia often point to a resurgence of various traditional norms and practices, including those surrounding marriage, that were suppressed under the Soviet rule. We engage these two perspectives on union formation by analyzing transition to first marriage in Kyrgyzstan both before and after the collapse of the USSR. We use uniquely detailed marriage histories from a nationally representative survey conducted in 2011-2012 to examine the dynamics of traditional marital practices among that country’s two main ethnic groups – Kyrgyz and Uzbeks, focusing on trends in arranged marriages and in marriages involving bride kidnapping. Whereas the analysis reveals instructive ethnic and period differences, it also indicates an overall decline in the risks of both types of traditional marriage practices in the post- Soviet era. In fact, although the decline has characterized all marriage types, it was more substantial for traditional marriages. We interpret these trends as evidence of continuing modernization of nuptiality behavior in the region. Keywords: Nuptiality, traditional marriage, modernization, Central Asia, event-history analysis 1 Introduction Transformation of nuptiality is an inalienable ingredient of modernity. Although changes in nuptiality regimes and union formation take different shapes in different societies, for many settings, including those of the former USSR, the demographic literature typically documents declining marriage rates and increase in non-marital cohabitation (e.g., Gerber and Berman 2010; Katus et al.

  • Japanese Picture Marriage and the Image of Immigrant Women in Early Twentieth-Century California
    Kei Tanaka(p115) 6/2 04.9.6 3:14 PM ページ 115 The Japanese Journal of American Studies, No. 15 (2004) Japanese Picture Marriage and the Image of Immigrant Women in Early Twentieth-Century California Kei TANAKA* INTRODUCTION Picture marriage (shashin kekkon) was a common practice among Japanese immigrants in Hawaii and the continental United States in the early twentieth century. Set up by a “go-between,” usually a relative or acquaintance of the immigrant man, marriage between a man in America and a woman in Japan was agreed upon after the couple—separated by the Pacific Ocean—exchanged portraits and information on their back- grounds.1 Immigrants at that time were made up mostly of single men who, in the absence of wives, visited prostitutes and gambled their money away. Working to reform the demoralized immigrant Japanese society, leaders of the Japanese community in America were convinced that marriage would assist their agenda. Moral reform was vital, leaders were convinced, to alleviating conditions that were the major cause of anti-Japanese sentiment in American society.2 This article focuses par- ticularly on the picture-marriage practice in California, where Japanese immigration was mostly concentrated. Picture marriage became popular among Japanese immigrants during the first two decades of the twentieth century, when Japanese men, hop- ing to form a class of independent farmers and producers, developed the Copyright © 2004 Kei Tanaka.
