DCL bride to be the love story of Heather & Henry ~08.26.11~

So shanda has been so nice to give me the wedding ceremony script so that i could see where i would like to add our own personal touches. Boy am i glad i got to see what the script looked like it was basically like, "bing,Bang,boom - you are now husband and wife" :rotfl: lol ohh no so here is my edited wedding ceremony script of our own personal touches.

Wedding Ceremony


Opening Prayer :

Our Gracious Heavenly Father,

We thank you for the love you provide for us each day. Today, we thank you for the love you have given _______ and _______ as they come before you on their wedding day. We invite you here to bless and protect their union and we ask that you will bless them and be with them through all the days of their life together. Amen.

We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life's greatest moments, to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love, and to add our best wishes to the words which shall publicly announce the marriage of ____________________________________ and ________________________________________.

____________________ And _______________________, I would ask that you both remember to treat yourself and each other with respect, and remind yourself often of what brought you together today. Give the highest priority to the tenderness, gentleness and kindness that your marriage deserves. When frustration and difficulty assail your marriage - as they do to every relationship at one time or another - focus on what still seems right between you, not only the part that seems wrong. This way, when clouds of trouble hide the sun in your lives and you lose sight of it for a moment, you can remember that the sun is still there. And if each of you will take responsibility for the quality of your life together, it will be marked by abundance and delight.

Bible Reading (read by the jr. bridesmaid):

Colossians 3:12-17 NIV version.

Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

VOWS

(Groom) ________________, do you take _______________ to be your Wife? ("I do")

Do you promise to love, honor, cherish and protect her, forsaking all others and holding only unto her forevermore? ("I do")

(Bride) ________________, do you take __________________ to be your Husband? ("I do")

Do you promise to love, honor, cherish and protect him, forsaking all others and holding only unto him forevermore? ("I do")





REPEATED VOWS

(If rings are exchanged each does so before repeating the following.)

(Groom) I _____________, take thee, ________________ to be my Wife- To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, in joy and sorrow and I promise my love to you.

(Bride) I _________________, take thee ______________, to be my Husband. To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, in joy and sorrow, and I promise my love to you.



____________________________ And ___________________________ as the two of you came into this marriage uniting you as husband and wife, and as you this day affirm your faith and love for one another, I would ask that you always remember to cherish each other as special and unique individuals, that you respect the thoughts, ideas and suggestions of one another. Be able to forgive, do not hold grudges, and live each day that you may share it together - as from this day forward you shall be each other's home, comfort and refuge, your marriage strengthened by your love and respect for each other.

Couples prayer

Groom: Dear Lord Jesus, Thank you for this beautiful day. You have fulfilled the desire of our hearts to be together in this life.

We pray that your blessing will always rest upon our home; that joy, peace and contentment would dwell within us as we live together in unity, and that all who enter our home may experience the strength of your love.



Bride: Father, help us to follow and serve you with an ever growing commitment because of our union. Guide us into greater love and sacrifice as we care for each other's needs, knowing you will care for us. May we always be as keenly aware of your presence as we sense it today on our wedding day. And may our devotion in marriage be a radiant reflection of your love for us.



Together: In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.



________________________ And _________________________, since you have already completed the legal requirements in Florida and in so much as the two of you have agreed to live together in Matrimony, have promised your love for each other by these vows, the joining of your hands and the giving of these rings, I now formally announce that you are Husband and Wife.
Congratulations, you may kiss your bride.



It is my privilege to present to you…

Mr. & Mrs._______________________________
 
I found this amazing find online and i fell inlove :love: I do have a ring boy and being that our wedding is far from traditional i thought the pillow was a little plain. This is what we are using for the ring boy to hold the rings in, instead.

Love your decisions!! I'm struggling with the songs and cake flavors. I was actually happier with the old ones :). We are giving the photographers a try too. It's sounds like things are improving, but I am going in with some examples!!!

I was struggling with the cake flavors too and then i thought about all the other things i had to worry about and i just made a simple decision with going with the vanilla and chocolate :)

The photos to me are improving! i deff. think its what you make of it and if you come prepared.
 

This evening Me and the future husband to be with my dad & family went and picked out the grooms suit & the groomsmen suits. I am soo excited to finally have pieced together the grooms outfit. He is going to look absolutely amazing. Here is a picture of what the groom will be wearing. :lovestruc:love::cool2::woohoo::yay:

These will be the boutonniere that the bestman, groomsmen, & father of the bride will be wearing for the wedding. It is a tropical flower (fake of course) and the colors will match my maid of honors dress and the jr. bridemaid sash. In the middle of the flower i plan to do my on DIY easy project of added a tiny starfish to the center of the flower to bring out the seaside of the the theme out.

so yesterday i receive a call from brevard county saying that there was missing paper work that i needed to fill out and have sent in but it was a mistake on their behalf they didnt include the paper in the email that they have sent me. So just for all the brides going through brevard make sure that they give you 4 sheets of papers that need to be filled and 2 of the 4 need to notarized (the application & the 'not of same sex') 1 is the directions, and the other 1 only obtains to you if you have children in the state of Florida.
 
Thank you! i cant wait to show you guys pictures and let you know how everything went. it feel like yesterday when he proposed to me in walt disney world lol

And we cannot wait to see the pictures of your beautiful day!! It is almost here! So excited for you!:banana::cheer2::banana::cheer2:
 
My little sister is my Junior bridesmaid.. she was the flower girl but she has convinced me that she is not a baby any more and wants to be a junior bridemaid. the only problem was that we have already bought her dress as the 'flower girl' and it wasnt the cheapest dress either.. (the dress was also used for her communion so i guess it paid for itself by getting two big uses out of it.) We are adding a coral sash to her dress to tie in my dress and the MOH dress. the dress looks ivory in the picture but its actually white. either way she will look beautiful princess:
