WEDDING DAY!!!!!

 

I'm celebrating with you today in spirit and love you all! 

Here is a little blessing I put together for YOUR BIG DAY TODAY!!!

Wedding Day Bessing for Hannah and Derick 

Lord, thank you for this day—
not just any day,
but the day.
A day set apart
that we have been waiting for.
 
May you soak it up.
May the glances linger longer,
may the laughter ring louder,
may the tears fall freely and be holy.
This is the day that the Lord has made.

May you rejoice, and be fully in it.
May you be here now.
Not racing ahead to what’s next,
not rehearsing what was,
but attuned—
right here, right now,
heart to heart,
one to another.
 
Give thanks.
for all that brought you here—
the messes, the miracles,
the waiting, the wondering,
the whispers to friends
about love that was growing
and about the excitement 

about what was to come. 

Give thanks.
for the community 
God has circled around you,
for the friends who carried you
family who formed you, and
strangers who surprised you with kindness. 

Thank you, Lord, for this love,
for this partner.

This person--
chosen
beloved and
delighted in.

This is not just a ceremony.
It is a threshold.
Where you step barefoot into mystery,
arms wide,
souls ready. 

Today, you will promise.
Today, you will celebrate.
And in all the blur of beauty—
the flowers, the music, the clinking of glasses—
may you not miss the moment.
May you soak it up.
May you be here now.
Attuned.
Grateful.
Blessed.
Amen.
