Timberly-- Keep your head up, we all go through those days. It is now 3:55 am and I am in my office at work, doing wedding stuff. I'm the nutso one!

 

TeNeil- Check Zappos.com before you give up. They have really cute shoes, all though I don't know about the canada shipping policy... wait... I found the canada version for you Buy Shoes and Handbags - Canada.Zappos.com hope it helps! I would have FREAKED out if the zipper was broken. Did they try to use a bar of soap on the zipper that loosens it up incase that happens again!

[SusieQ]

TeNeil.... You win for the most stressful moment of the week.... If there was a mental breakdown moment that had to be it and you kept it together... I am proud of you girl...

After driving to be fitted and not getting your fitting done to be cut out of your dress... Holy Crap...

[Raykel]

Good for you TeNeil! To be able to laugh your way through that experience...but you know, that is probably the best way to deal with it! Think how much funnier it will be next year when you tell that story You know...if the zipper had to go, at least it did it here in the store and not in Mexico!

 

Hey its after 4am here and you guys are still on line! Good morning my friends:)

Ok its 6 am and I am FINALLY done with my ceremony... its long so bear with me. Justin and I went through it together and even though I can't make it through without crying- I think I love it! We are adding a variation that we made up to the sand ceremony-- let me know what you think of that part especially! Thanks ladies and finally-- GOOD NIGHT!

 

 

Welcome

 

I’d like to respectfully ask: Who gives this beautiful woman to be married to this wonderful man? Both mom and dad – We Do.

 

On behalf of Justin and Brooke, I welcome you and thank you all for gathering here on this beautiful day to witness their marriage ceremony. The fact that you all have traveled such a great distance to be here today is a testament to the amazing amount of love and support they have. All of you have given them much happiness, love, warmth, and guidance through the various stages of their lives. They would like to sincerely thank you all for being here to celebrate their big day. A special and respectful acknowledgement must also be made to those friends and family members who were unable to attend, or have passed on, but whose spirit remains alive and strong in all our hearts.

 

Justin and Brooke, you are here today surrounded by friends and family. Some people here have known you your entire lives and some for only a few years, but no matter how long or in what circumstances they know you, I can guarantee that everyone here knows what remarkable individuals and what an amazing couple you are.

 

You have chosen to walk through life together. There is no truer statement of love. Before this moment you have been many things to one another- best friend, companion, lover, partner, and even teacher, for you have learned much from one another over the years. Soon you shall say a few words that take you across a threshold of life, and things will never quite be the same between you. For after your vows, you shall say to the world, this- is my husband, this- is my wife.

 

Hand Ceremony

 

As an expression that you are joined together in love - will you please hold up your hands and hold one another, so you may feel the gift that you are to each other.

 

These are the hands of your best friend, young and strong and full of love for you, that are holding yours on your wedding day as you promise to love each other today, tomorrow, and forever.

These are the hands that will work alongside yours as together you build your future.

These are the hands that will give you goosebumps and massages.

These are the hands that will passionately love you and cherish you through the years, and with the slightest touch, will comfort you like no other.

These are the hands that will hold you when fear or grief fills your mind.

These are the hands that will wipe the tears from your eyes; tears of sorrow and tears of joy.

These are the hands that will give you strength when you need it.

These are the hands that will tenderly hold your children.

These are the hands that will help you to hold your family as one.

And lastly, these are the hands that even when wrinkled and aged will still be reaching for yours, still giving you the same unspoken tenderness with just a touch.

 

(Peggy will do her reading)

 

BROOKE, WILL YOU LOOK INTO JUSTIN’S EYES AND INTO HIS HEART, AND NOW SAY YOUR VOWS.

 

I, Brooke, take you, Justin, to be my husband,

my best friend, partner in life and my one true love.

(add in personal vow here)

 

With this ring, I give you my heart. I have no greater gift to give.

I trust you and respect you,

I will continue to laugh with you and cry with you.

With this ring, I pledge my life and my love to you.

 

Justin, if you accept please say I do…

 

The wedding ring, is a symbol of the unbroken circle of love as it has neither a beginning nor an end. It should always remind those who wear it of the sacredness of marriage and the love that feeds it. We can be reminded of Justin’s parents successful marriage, by the presence of their rings here today. Justin may you forever wear this band as a symbol of love and commitment to you and your marriage from this day forward until death do you part.

 

 

JUSTIN, WILL YOU LOOK INTO BROOKE’S EYES AND INTO HER HEART, AND NOW SAY YOUR VOWS.

 

I, Justin, take you, Brooke, to be my wife,

my best friend, partner in life and my one true love.

(add in personal vow here)

 

With this ring, I give you my heart. I have no greater gift to give.

I trust you and respect you,

I will continue to laugh with you and cry with you.

With this ring, I pledge my life and my love to you.

 

Brooke, if you accept please say I do…

 

The engagement ring is a symbol of promise and intention. Now the intention is realized and the promise fulfilled. Justin, please place the wedding band on Brooke’s finger. Just as Brooke’s great grandmother wore this band until the day she died. Brooke may you forever wear this band as a symbol of love and commitment to you and your marriage from this day forward until death do you part

 

Ladies and Gentlemen, Justin and Brooke have demonstrated in your presence today their belief in their love and their desire to live together as Husband and Wife. If you also believe in their love, and wish to add your blessing upon their marriage today, please respond now by saying……………WE DO

 

And are you all willing to sustain and strengthen this marriage, by giving Justin and Brooke the public commitment of your love and support, through all the ups and downs ahead of them…If you are willing, please say……….WE ARE

 

Sand and Shell Ceremony

 

When you arrived at the ceremony today you were asked to place a shell into the jar on the table. We will now have the parents come up and add their shells into the jar (Brooke and Justin hug the parents) This jar symbolizes the foundation of family and friends in Brooke and Justin’s life. They will now be adding sand from two containers, one represents you, Justin, and you, Brooke, as an individual, and all that you were, all that you are, and all that you will ever be. As these two containers of sand are poured into the third container, they will build upon the foundation that was begun, and the individual containers of sand will no longer exist, but will be joined together as one. Just as these grains of sand can never be separated and poured again back into the individual containers, so shall be your marriage.

 

Closing:

 

Justin and Brooke, now you will feel no rain, for each of you will be shelter for the other. Now you will feel no cold, for each of you will be warmth to the other. Now there will be no loneliness, for each of you will be companion to the other. Now you are two persons, but there is only one life before you. May beauty surround you both in the journey ahead and through all the years. May happiness be your companion and your days together be good and long upon the earth. Give to one another new experiences of joy. Challenge one another so that you may grow. May the love you hold for each other, now sealed in marriage, continue to mature with the passing years. May you never take each other for granted, but always experience the wonder of your union. May the people you touch in your lifetime know how much you love and care for one another and may you love one another forever.

 

With friends and family, along with the sun, the sand, and the sea, I have the pleasure to present to you for the very first time… Mr. and Mrs. Moulton.

 

 

You may now kiss the bride!

I can't do the waxing-- I will do my eyebrows but that it!! I went out and bought some wrinkle reducer for my forehead and eyes area and some celluite cream that got good reviews in Shape magazine. If you find any great products let me know-- I'm willing to try almost anything!

[SusieQ]

I slept through the night midnight to 7.30am....Amazing....

 

Brooke you have me all teary and giddy at the same time.... Beautiful ceremony...

 

I too have to book the treatments and hair... My hair is being coloured and cut jan 22 manicure/pedicure & waxing I still have to arrange. wonder would Doctor Nip and Tuck would work some magic on me before I go.... nah I'll take may sagging ass and boobs the way they are and off i go in 18 bloody days.... Yup 18 days, just 18 days, only 18 days, get outta dodge 18 days..... I know shut up already....

 

So I never told you gals what my gfriend did last weekend... she turned 48 on Monday and she is recently divorced. She has really struggled with being the one that was left and the feeling of being kicked to the curb for a much younger woman. Anyway we're at the tanning salon last sunday and they sell belly rings there and do the actually piercing.

I come out of the tanning room and she is staring at the belly rings... Of course me the little devil voice is like whispering in her ear "Do it". Not a second thought she is on the bed and the needle is through and she has her belly pierced.

She was showing it off last night and was very happy with herself that she actually did that... She has a really flat tummy and with the tan it looks great...

Yeah I know the things i share with you gals.... hehehehe

[Krista_H]

Brooke - wow great job!!

 

I have all my waxing/nail appointments booked. I did this awhile ago because we leave on vday and figured if I didn't book them awhile ago all the valentine's day people would scoop them up. Just have to make an appointment for my hair now.

 

Susie - 18 days?? I'm at 40 and nervous. I have everything ready, I'm just a worrier (probably causing myself lots of grey hair and wrinkles!! ha ha ha)
