Address
A wedding is such a wonderful occasion filled with hopes, dreams and excitement. We are here today to celebrate the love that Alex and Casey have for each other, and to recognize and witness their decision to journey forward in their lives as marriage partners.
May your love create a safe haven for you both on the journey that lies ahead of you. Lead with your hearts and take the time to do the simple things that will nurture your love.
Deeply listen to each other—to your dreams, and to your frustrations. Be helpmates. Be playful in finding new ways to give your love anew to each other every day.
Let your love be an inspiration to others to reach for what is good within us all. May your love be so abundant that you have plenty to share with the rest of us as well.
It is your love that has brought us together here today. May it grow deeper and sweeter with each passing year.
