Wedding Ceremony Concluding Blessing

         

For a marriage ceremony to be legal, there are few simple requirements that have to be met. After that, a couple may create a wedding ceremony that is both personal and unique.

A graceful way to conclude the wedding ceremony is to have the last words as a blessing called down on the couple either by the celebrant or a friend or bridal attendant.

Here are a couple of wedding blessing taken out of my Wedding Ceremony Resource Book

Blessing No. 1
May you have enough happiness to keep you sweet,
Enough trials to keep you strong,
Enough sorrow to keep you human,
Enough hope to keep you happy,
Enough failure to keep you humble,
Enough success to keep you eager,
Enough friends to give you comfort, 
Enough wealth to meet your needs,
Enough enthusiasm to look forward,
Enough faith to banish depression,
Enough determination to make each day better than yesterday.

Blessing No. 2
(Bride) and (Groom) may God bless and keep you, may the sun of many days and years shine upon you, may the love you have for one another grow and hold you close.

May the good true light within you guide your way together. May your dreams come true and when they don’t may new dreams arise.

And long, long years from now, may you look at one another and be able to say, ‘Because of you I have become the person I longed to be’.
