Give them wisdom and devotion in the ordering of their common life,

and in the age to come have life everlasting.

Lord bless this beautiful couple with love and hope we pray.

Temper their hearts with kindness and help them to be sweethearts, helpmates, friend and guide, and together, may they meet the cares and problems of life more bravely.
May their home truly be a place of love and harmony where your Spirit is ever present. Bless their wedding day, we pray, and walk beside them, through all their life together. Amen.
