If the objection is minor and doesn’t have any legal standing, the officiant may even just keep going with the ceremony without pausing.
If the person who objects isn’t willing to move on, you may have to ask them to leave. It can be nerve wracking to think about someone objecting at your wedding. Keep in mind that this isn’t common, and it’s much more likely that your ceremony will go off without a hitch! Calm your nerves before the wedding by relaxing with friends and family the night before.
If you’re not religious or you’re not having a religious ceremony, feel free to leave it out all together.
You might say something like, “I know you don’t approve of this marriage, but we’re in love and we will be getting married. If you have any objections, please keep them to yourself or talk with us in private about them. ”
Remember, the only way to stop a wedding is if you have a legal reason why the couple can’t be married. In today’s modern age, almost every legal issue is brought up before the couple applies for their marriage license, so it’s very unlikely that you could shout something out that would stop a wedding.
