Like good wine, a great love will deepen and mature with age. As a part of today’s ceremony, Bride and Groom have captured their thoughts leading up to this day in personal notes to each other.

Also they have asked their parents (or best man/maid of honor or other loved ones) to compose notes as well, containing their thoughts and their most important piece of advice to the couple as they journey through life together. These notes will now be sealed in this box to be opened and shared together with a bottle of wine on a future anniversary celebration.

It is at this time I would ask the parents to come forward and place their note and a bottle of wine inside this box. These messages and wine will be shared by Bride and Groom on their 1st and 5th anniversaries.

And I now ask that Bride and Groom place their notes to each other with a bottle of wine they have selected to share on their 10th anniversary celebration. On that day, they will get to reflect on the events and emotions they shared on this wonderful day. They can also reminisce about all of the wonderful memories they will have made over the last ten years and dream of all of those yet to come.

Bride and Groom have chosen as a couple to perform a Wine Box ceremony. This box contains a bottle of wine, two glasses, and a love letter from each to the other. The letters describe the good qualities they find in one another, the reasons they fell in love, and their reasons for choosing to marry. The letters are sealed in individual envelopes and they have not seen what the other has written.  They've also chosen to include memories of their relationship (Ticket stubs, photographs, et..) You have created your very own “romantic” time capsule to be opened each year on your anniversary.  Each year on their anniversary, they can drink the bottle of wine together and replace it with a new one.  They can also add memories from the year past while they look at the memories they've created.  Over a lifetime, you will hopefully have an impressive cork collection and a wonderful collection of momentos. I recommend that you keep the box in a place of honor prominently displayed in your home as a constant reminder of your commitment to each other.

Bride and Groom have chosen as a couple to perform a Wedding Box ceremony. This box contains a bottle of wine, two glasses, and a love letter from each to the other. The letters describe the good qualities they find in one another, the reasons they fell in love, and their reasons for choosing to marry. The letters are sealed in individual envelopes and they have not seen what the other has written. Should Bride and Groom ever find their marriage facing hardships, they will open this box, sit and drink the wine together, then read the letters they wrote to one another to be reminded of the reasons why they are together. The hope is, however, that they will never have a reason to open this box.  And if this is the case, they will open this box to share and enjoy on their 5th year wedding anniversary, replenish and open on their 10th anniversary, and every five years for the rest of their lives.

At this time, Bride and Groom would like to do something to remember this special day. First, they have this box, created and personalized just for them. They are going to put memories in the box to keep until their 5th anniversary. The first memory is a bottle of wine. They chose to get married here, in this beautiful vineyard, so it is only fitting they choose a bottle of wine produced here, at Mallow Run Winery. The other things going into the box are these two letters they have written to each other. The letters are about how they feel today about themselves, each other and their hopes for the future as a married couple.  On their 5th anniversary, they will open the box, enjoy the wine and read the letters they have written. They will be able to look back and see the love they share today, their wedding day, in its innocence and beauty. Hopefully, as they look back, they will be able to see how they have grown as individuals and how their love and relationship has changed and matured through marriage.

The Wine Box Ceremony
Renewed yearly on your anniversary

Bride and Groom have decided to create a  memory of today in the form of this wine box.  You can see here there are two glasses and an excellent bottle of wine. Now, they are going to add letters they have written to each other and close the box.  Going forward, this will become an anniversary box. Each year, on their anniversary, they will open the box, enjoy the bottle of wine together and read their letters.  They will then replace the bottle with a new one, perhaps a new older bottle of wine or a trendy vintage they hope will still be good in a year. Their cork collection has infinite possibilities, as does their relationship. The letters they are adding today speak of how they feel about each other today, on their wedding day, with the hopes and dreams they have for their future.  Each year they will also add a new letter to the box. Over time, it will document how much their relationship, lives, and love for each other changes as it matures. Bride and Groom, perhaps this box will be displayed in a special place in your home or perhaps it will be held in a private, special place for safekeeping, but may it always hold a special place in your hearts and create a memory of your lives and love through your lifetime.
