​Celtic Wedding Blessing 4

2/21/2019

 
Happy is the bride that rain falls on 
May your mornings bring joy and your evenings bring peace. 
May your troubles grow few as your blessings increase. 
May the saddest day of your future 
Be no worse than the happiest day of your past. 
May your hands be forever clasped in friendship 
And your hearts joined forever in love. 
Your lives are very special, 
God has touched you in many ways. 
May his blessings rest upon you 
And fill all your coming days. 
We swear by peace and love to stand, 
Heart to heart and hand to hand. 
Hark, O Spirit, and hear us now, 
Confirming this our Sacred Vow.

Celtic Wedding Blessing 2

2/21/2019

 

You are the star of each night, 
You are the brightness of every morning, 
You are the story of each guest, 
You are the report of every land. 
No evil shall befall you, on hill nor bank, 
In field or valley, on mountain or in glen. 
Neither above, nor below, neither in sea, 
Nor on shore, in skies above, 
Nor in the depths. 
You are the kernel of my heart, 
You are the face of my sun, 
You are the harp of my music, 
You are the crown of my company.

Celtic Wedding Blessing 1

2/21/2019

 

May the road rise to meet you, 
May the wind be always at your back. 
May the sun shine warm upon your face, 
The rains fall soft upon your fields. 
And until we meet again, 
May God hold you in the palm of his hand. 

May God be with you and bless you; 
May you see your children's children. 
May you be poor in misfortune, 
Rich in blessings, 
May you know nothing but happiness 
From this day forward. 

May the road rise to meet you 
May the wind be always at your back 
May the warm rays of sun fall upon your home 
And may the hand of a friend always be near. 

May green be the grass you walk on, 
May blue be the skies above you, 
May pure be the joys that surround you, 
May true be the hearts that love you.

Celtic Wedding Song

2/21/2019

 
There they stand, hand in hand, and exchange wedding bands. 
Today is the day of all their dreams and plans. 
And all of their loved ones are here to say, 
God bless this couple who marry today. 

In good times and bad times, in sickness and health, 
May they know that riches aren't needed for wealth. 
Help them face problems they'll meet on their way - 
God bless this couple who marry today. 

May they find peace of mind comes to all who are kind, 
May the rough times ahead become triumphs in time, 
May their children be happy each day - 
God bless this family who started today. 

As they go, may they know every love that was shown, 
And as life it gets shorter may their feelings grow. 
Wherever they travel, wherever they stay, 
God bless this couple who marry today.

I take you my heart 
At the rising of the moon 
And the setting of the stars.

Now you are bound one to the other 
With a tie not easy to break. 
Take the time of binding 
Before the final vows are made

To grow in wisdom and love. 
That your marriage will be strong 
That your love will last 
In this life and beyond.

Handfast Ceremony Blessing 2

2/21/2019

 

Blessed be this union with the gifts of the East. 
Communication of the heart, mind, and body 
Fresh beginnings with the rising of each Sun. 
The knowledge of the growth found in the sharing of silences. 

Blessed be this union with the gifts of the South. 
Warmth of hearth and home 
The heat of the heart's passion 
The light created by both to illuminate the darkest of times. 

Blessed be this union with the gifts of the West. 
The deep commitments of the lake The swift excitement of the river 
The refreshing cleansing of the rain 
The all encompassing passion of the sea. 

Blessed be this union with the gifts of the North 
Firm foundation on which to build 
Fertility of the fields to enrich your lives

Lord help us to remember when

I, groom, in the name of the spirit of God that resides within us all, by the life that courses within my blood and the love that resides within my heart, take thee (bride's full name) to my hand, my heart, and my spirit, to be my chosen one.

Traditional Celtic Wedding Vow 2

2/21/2019

 

I vow you the first cut of my meat, the first sip of my wine, 
from this day it shall only your name I cry out in the night 
and into your eyes that I smile each morning; 
I shall be a shield for you back as you are for mine, 
no shall a grievous word be spoken about us, 
for our marriage is sacred between us and no stranger shall hear my grievance. 
Above and beyond this, I will cherish and honor you through this life 
and into the next.

Traditional Celtic Wedding Vow 1

2/21/2019

 
Ye are Blood of my Blood, and Bone of my Bone. 
I give ye my Body, that we Two might be One. 
I give ye my Spirit, 'til our Life shall be Done. 

You cannot possess me for I belong to myself 
But while we both wish it, I give you that which is mine to give 
You cannot command me, for I am a free person 
But I shall serve you in those ways you require 
and the honeycomb will taste sweeter coming from my hand.
