Why do you want a no-religious ceremony ? a laïc blessing ?
For many people, a civil wedding at the town hall seems to go too fast and is only "civilian". Getting married in a church or in some religious fashion is a practice that is too different from who you are and your life and it doesn't mean anything (except, in some cases, for your family).
