XP: FIVE pastors!

derrickb · September 2010

We're going to be incorporating 5 pastors in our ceremony! Three are family and the other two from our churches. Only three will "speak" publicly. What do you think of this breakdown?
Uncle: Main officiant (charge to the couple, vows, rings, etc)FI Uncle: Serve communion (just us)Dad: Serve communion (just us)Pastor: PrayerFI Pastor: Charge to the attendants & guests

Sure - that sounds fine. Just as long as they each know their role you should be fine. Will they all attend the rehearsal?

We had 5 pastors in ours as well - our main officiant was DH's best friend's wife, DH's best friend (also a pastor) was BM, my sister (also a pastor) was my MOH and read scripture, another pastor friend read scripture, and my dad (a pastor) gave me away. I guess they weren't all involved as yours were, but it's just funny that we both have 5 pastors as part of our wedding.

My pastor said the blessing before the meal. But he was not involved in the ceremony or that would have been 6!

I thought I was on the high end with 4! For us, FI's dad is basically doing the wedding portion of it, my senior pastor is doing the Cord of Three Strands, my associate pastor is presenting the Gospel Message, and my youth pastor is saying a prayer. We knew we wanted all 4 of them involved, and this breakdown just works for us. Your breakdown with 5 sounds great, as well.
