Ceremony Ideas
My cousin and her fiancee are having their wedding party consist of her maid of honor and a best man. She has 7 other friends she would like to include in the ceremony. Besides having them doa reading, do you have any other ideas?

At my best friend`s wedding she had one of her friends sing a solo... I don`t know if that would work for your cousing, but possibly if any of her friends are so inclined they could do something like that.
Hand out programs & rice/bubbles as people come into the ceremony... Like an official greeter.
They could make speaches at the reception... Or even just dedicate a specific song for just "the girls" - Have a special little speech prepared about how great her friends are & how important they have been ...supportive yada yada yada then maybe play "We are Family" and have a girls only dance...
Include their names on the programs as being a special thanks to...

Also, we are doing the Rose Ceremony at our wedding, and you could have friends participate as readers in this...
I have also heard of the wreath ceremony...Friends place symbolic items on a wreath, and speak about the symbolism....
We are also having a special time for friends and family to join us for prayer and blessing, with a special song...
Hope this helps!
