Secular wedding ceremonies can be deeply meaningful without being religious. We’ve got tons of secular wedding ceremonies, secular wedding readings, secular wedding scripts, and real wedding inspiration from couples who had powerful, emotional non-religious nontraditional weddings. You may also want to check out our agnostic and atheist weddings.

Abigail & Kevin’s candlelit gothic wedding in the woods

Give us some sumptuous dark decor, a lush forest ceremony bathed in candlelight, and a super gorgeous gothic couple who totally know how to put an ensemble together. Add in a few D&D and wizard touches, and we’re all on this geeky-gothic train. Plus, we love any family who is down for anything as long as there’s cake.

Jade & Jonathan’s down-to-earth backyard wedding

A painted mailbox, an adorably awkward bride/grandfather walk down the aisle, and a top-your-own doughnut bar — oh hell yeah, this wedding is Fun City. This wedding also has one of the funniest moments we’ve read about in awhile. Let’s just say there was a really big mix-up in locations.
