We ask that the Holy Spirit of love may deepen the lives of Bride and Groom. May the relationship, which today has been expressed, continue to grow in the years to come. And whatever changes time may bring, let this wedding ceremony remain as a treasured memory and a guide to life. May they always experience that breathless wonder that exclaims: "Out of all this world, you have chosen me." When life is done and the sun is setting, may they be found then as now, still hand in hand, still thanking you for each other. Amen

We don’t know what lies ahead. But help them to make the best of whatever comes their way. Help them to hug each other often … laugh a lot, talk more, and argue less. Help them to continue to enjoy each other as they did when they first met. Help them to realize that nothing or no one is perfect and to look for the good in all things and all people including themselves. Help them to respect each other’s likes and dislikes, opinions and beliefs, hopes and dreams and fears even though they may not always understand them. Help them to learn from each other and help each other grow mentally and emotionally. Give them peace of heart and strength of spirit so they may honor the vows they made here today. And may the promises they made inspire each of us who celebrates with them. Amen

Click here for more Opening Prayers Click here for Marriage Blessings The wedding is not over - it has just begun. Not once and forever, but again and again shall the mystery of two people, together in love, move one another and touch the world. For marriage is not something said and done, but a promise, whose fulfillment is acted out over time. For in the end, truth remains elusive - death a secret - love a challenge. Life goes on neither more nor less incidentally than before. But one’s hand is strengthened, one’s way brightened, and one’s load, if not lightened, is made easier to bear. So for Groom and Bride, we simply pray that the promises of marriage have a long and complete fulfillment; that their love is nurtured and shared by their families and friends; and that the seasons be joyous along the way. In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
