Why your venue should promote humanist ceremonies
Many couples nowadays are looking for authentic energy, something that the wedding venue can provide.

What is a humanist wedding?
There is a vast difference between the ceremony options one venue can provide. When talking about a humanist wedding, the goal is to provide a celebrant and authentic feel. They are considered a ceremony – but without the religious aspect. More often than not, the humanist celebration is a customised outdoor wedding ceremony, filled with bliss, unique personality and sincerity. The celebrant binds the marriage completely tailored to the couple’s story. Of course, this person is chosen by the happy couple. These are certified professionals that conduct personal ceremonies.
How to prepare for the ceremony?
It is quite easy to prepare for a humanist ceremony. The reason for this is that it is supposed to be an event that reflects the beliefs of the couple. First and foremost, the humanist wedding can last for as long as the couple wants, so note that there is no defined schedule for it. In this case, more specifically, if this is an outdoor wedding ceremony, make sure to adjust it to the needs of the couple.
Furthermore, you can work a bit closer with the celebrants. As we already mentioned, they are a big part of the nuptial event. See to it that they lack nothing in their process of reading a poem, or while sharing the story of how the couple met and sharing some words of well-wishing.
Expect the typical wedding attire! At a humanist wedding, guests, and the couple, can wear whatever they want. So if the ceremony steps out of the ordinary, the outfits might remain the same as they would for a traditional celebration.
