April 22,2007 BIKER/HARLEY DAVIDSON Theme Wedding Get your motor runnin' and check out all these great tips and ideas for your biker themed wedding! The Traditional Biker CeremonyYour biggest worry will be how much space is available for the motorcycles if your wedding is outside. Typically, biker ceremonies have bikes lined up on two sides to form an aisle for the bride and her bridesmaids to walk down. As the bride passes, each biker revs his/her motorcycle with all of them making noise until she reaches the front. A signal is usually given to shut the bikes off all at once. And, because it is a biker ceremony, it stands to reason that the bride and groom usually have written their own vows. Check your local Harley Chapter to see if there is a local offiicient who is either a biker or who is familiar with biker weddings. He/she can help you create vows using biker slang. Once the bikers are pronounced husband and wife, the motorcycles are reved up again as the bride and groom walk up the aisle together.Another cool item: A gray stone runner Lay it down to mark a path with rustic flair. Rocks with plastic backing. 60" long by 14" wide.

BIKE WEEK WEDDINGSReverend Ron is not your average preacher. He has performed weddings for the two wheeled set at the Sturgis Rally, Daytona Bike Week, Thunder Beach in Panama City and the Laconia Rally in New Hampshire. Just because you ride and like to live YOUR life YOUR way doesn't mean you don't deserve to have your wedding the way you want. Reverend Ron provides this service because many people in the biker community do not feel comfortable in a church or courthouse or they would like to have their ceremony performed right on their bike. Well not only can The Rev perform your ceremony while you're on your bike but, he can delivery your vows anywhere you like. Reverend Ron provides wedding planning and officiant services for bikers anywhere they like. He does not have a chapel but he will go to your local bar, clubhouse, Harley dealership, park, beach or where ever you desire to have your wedding ceremony.
