Beaux and Soriah’s Backstory
The wedding ceremony backstory is the ideal way to communicate the specifics about your love for your future spouse.
The benefit of taking the time to write the wedding backstory includes but is not limited to, introducing your future spouse to the other side of the family, telling your closest family and friends why you’re in love, and just because it’s fun to talk about your future spouse and all the things you love about them.
A quality backstory gets his and her opinions. It can’t be a complete backstory if it’s one sided. The Backstory should enlighten both “sides of the aisle.” All of your ceremony guests should feel like they know the bride and groom more deeply after hearing the backstory. For example.
“Beaux and Soriah met like so many modern couples meet: online. After a causal online chat or two they decided to meet up. In fact, she approached him first. After they met, Beaux said his first impression of Soriah was, and I quote, “Beautiful inside and out.”
They quickly learned that they had much in common including kids, family, and soccer. And of course, they shared a love for the local burger grill where they enjoyed their first lunch date. In Beaux’s words, “the conversation was smooth and easy, and I couldn’t wait for number two.”
When writing the backstory don’t look for uniformity. Your ceremony planning specialist will help iron out the kinks in language so that your Officiant is able to clearly and accurately communicate the specifics of your history together. It’s ok for this type of writing to include two separate voices: the groom’s and the bride’s.
It’s ok to use a template. After all: this particularly feet of writing has been done before. Let a professional officiant guide you through the process those that there are as few bumps in the road as possible.
If you ask Beaux what he admires about Soriah he’ll say, “her guts, and her willingness to fight through the tough years.” Beaux loves the way Soriah treats others, but most of all, he loves how she treats his children. She loves them, “with no strings attached.”
The right backstory includes what you love about your future spouse and nothing else. Tell people what you’ve learned not what they expect to hear, or what you think they want to hear. Be specific whenever possible.
“The list of the things Soriah loves about Beaux is not short. It’s pretty much everything. But the list definitely includes his smile, his faith and how she loves him, sharing fires outside, their travels, dinners, a similar sense of humor…and her foot rubs are the best!Beaux can’t wait to see her every day, hold her, talk with her. “It’s just an unbelievable pleasure to know Soriah,” says Beaux.
One of the fundamental goals of the backstory is to bring guests up to speed. Be sure to include the days and weeks leading up to the ceremony. Proposal stories are always good to mention as well.
In June of 2011 Beaux realized he had fallen for Soriah. Beaux asked Soriah to marry him in January of 2015, on the beach in San Diego with the kids present. Getting married today solidifies once and for all that they’ve got each other’s backs now and forever.
