Toronto Weddings

Nude weddings are on the rise, according to “Weddings Exposed: Bride and Groom Bare All,” by Lana Gerseten of Columbia News Service. It appeared in, Arizona Central on February 20th.

600 guests attended a wedding in the Berkshire mountains where the bride was not wearing a wedding dress and the groom wore nothing more than a top hat and bow tie. Only 12 of the guests wore clothes, some wore hats or had shawls around their shoulders, but most did not dress at all.

Instead of paying the $26,000 on the average cost of a wedding, a nude wedding will cost you about $2,000 to $3,000. Nude weddings are quite popular especially on nude cruises, where on a recent cruise 15 couples renewed their vows without clothes.

According to Rev. Jo Ann Pessagno, a minister who she says has presided over 80 nude weddings and officiated the wedding covered in the article.

“Couples who get married in the nude are closer to God, the universe, divine energy,” she said . “Their emphasis is on the ceremony and the words as opposed to the flowers, the place cards, what kind of wine they’re serving, what kind entrees, desserts.”

A nude wedding symbolizes the love that couples have for each other and not on superficial details.
