First wedding ceremony reading:-
Read by Joy Dodson
Today is a very special day, for it is the day you
start another chapter in your book of life.
As parents we always know that one day our children will grow to need much
more than we can offer. Now that day has finally arrived, and you have
both found the special person with whom you want to share your love and
your life. Someone who can make the sun shine in your heart - even on
the cloudiest of days, and someone who will fill the next chapter in
your life with happiness beyond your dreams.
Live the life you believe in and you will have everything you need to reach
those dreams. Just look into your hearts and you will find the strength
in each other that will make each new challenge easier to face - together. The
close friends and family, sharing this day with you, all have memories
very precious and personal to each of us, but we would ask only this of
you:
Always give the best of yourselves to each other and ask no more than you can
give. Accept one another for
the way you are. You fell in love with the qualities and abilities and
the outlook on life that you both have - don't try to change
them.
Share your time, your close attention, and bring joy, strength
and imagination into your relationship. Grow along with each
other; be willing to face changes as you both change in order
to keep your relationship alive and exciting. And, most
importantly, love each other in good times and bad in the only
way you know how. Completely and forever...

The Golden Chain of Marriage
Marriage is a golden chain. The links are friends so dear. And like a precious jewel, it's treasured more each year.
It's clasped together firmly with a love that's deep and true, and it's rich in happy memories and fond recollections too.
Time can't destroy its beauty for as long as memory lives, years can't erase the pleasure that the joy of marriage gives.
For marriage is a precious gift that can't be bought or sold, and to have an understanding heart is worth far more than gold.
And the golden chain of marriage is a strong and special tie, binding kindred hearts together as the years go passing by.
May this be the start of a happy new life that's full of special moments to share.
May this be the first of your dreams coming true and of hope that will
always be there.
May this be the start of a lifetime of trust and of caring that's just now begun.
May today be a day that you'll always remember the day when your hearts become one.
I give you this ring as a token of my love and a symbol of our
future together. I promise to live with you and laugh with you. To stand by your side, in the good times and the bad times.
To be a joy to your heart, and share with you all that I have from now, until the end of my life.
