Hi everyone!
For those of you doing readings, are you just having your officiant read them or are you having a close friend/family member read them?
We have been working with our officiant on the ceremony and will be having at least two readings. She suggested asking friends/family to read them and says it always adds something extra the the ceremony - trouble is, who do you ask? If there are only, say 2 readings, and 8 people who would be willing to help out, is it just an opportunity to hurt people''s feelings?
In our families, the people closest to us are teachers, public speakers, and generally outgoing and most of them would really love to participate. Do you think it would be better to just let the officiant handle it as to not offend anyone who didn''t get asked? How did everyone else handle this?
