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.

Jenn & Bill’s laid-back and fun-focused wedding

This pair totally has the right idea: don’t over-plan, keep your vows sweet and funny, and focus on all things FUN. At one of our favorite venues, [vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/the-quixotic-world"]The Quixotic World[/vendor-heart], they were able to dress up, rock out, and celebrate with loved ones from afar. Oh, and make sure to see how they included audience participation in the ceremony!

Julie & Tim’s garden party family and friends wedding

Gathering family from many locations can be stressful, but these two celebrated their 15-year romance with their nearest and dearest and made it look easy. They rocked a choreographed mother-daughter-sister dance and a “first performance” instead of a first dance. But a cameo from a carboard pooch proved the funniest moment of all.

Laura & Michael’s blue winter wedding in Brooklyn

A royal blue suit, a “cake inspector,” a few DIY projects, and one of our favorite venues — this winter wedding in Brooklyn is all about easy-going awesomeness. Don’t miss the fabric flower bouquet, mini flags, and tiny succulents. And you’ll never guess what the groom used to break the glass at the ceremony!

Kaitlyn & Joe’s cupcakes and courthouse jail tour wedding

This bride owns one of our most favorite dress design companies, [vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/kmkdesigns"]KMKDesigns[/vendor-heart], so you won’t be too surprised to see that her own dress is nothing less than magnificent. But you’ll also be swept away by the other handmade fashions, nom-worthy cupcakes, the jail tour, and the totally sweet “high school prom” first dance.
