A UNION OF HEARTS

To the newlyweds here gathered

Who have decided to spend life together

A marriage is a union of hearts

Both partners contributing their parts

A wedding day is a sign from above

A day filled with faith, hope, and love

A new stage in your journey together

Declaring your love for each other

Faith in the love you have shown

Hope for the love that has grown

Love that continues to blossom and grow

As your journey together unfolds

For any journey to be a success

Continuous work is the best

For those times when changes are needed

Experienced advice should be heeded

We make a promise to you this night

That when called upon we will share our light

And when you reflect on your journey together

We hope you’ll look back with love and laughter

Richard T. Boulay, June 2000

Very nice reflection on marriage as a community undertaking, as well an agreement between the two betrothed.
