A wedding between two people although it can be religious, is also a legal contract that both partners agree too. Although the service may be quite lengthy and involved, it is not complete until the legal aspect is fulfilled. So although you may think the most important aspects are the religious requirements, or that the wedding ceremony readings are appropriate, the law requires that the couple sign the marriage certificate in front of witnesses before the marriage can be legally accepted. So the wedding ceremony decorations and wedding ceremony music, although important to many of us, are not essential!
Church Ceremonies

Accommodation for these is normally arranged at the place where the service is going to take place and where the other events are also being held.
