Verse # 1-1             As You Begin Your New Life

To (Couples Name)
. . . As you begin your new life together,
As man and wife, now and forever . . .
(Wedding Date)
Dedicate your lives, to but one goal,
In body, in heart, in mind and in soul.
To make your marriage the best that it can be,
To honor each other, until eternity.
Feel each others' sorrow, feel each others' pain,
Then a deeper bond, the two of you will gain.
The words you speak, the touch you give,
Will be the essence, of the life that you will live.
Listen to each other, with ears and heart,
Attentive and caring never to part.
Always give your spouse, the benefit of the doubt,
For that is what trust and respect, are all about.
Forgiveness and understanding, go hand in hand,
Then you'll surely know, love has taken a stand.
Be gentle and loving, each and every day,
Remembering your faith, along the way.
. . . As you begin your new life,
As Man and Wife . . .

Verse # 1-2              As You Do Wed

(Couples Name)
On this day, as you do wed,
(Wedding Date)
You begin our lives, as a single thread.
Together you will sew your hopes and dreams,
Building your lives, by fruitful means.
Together you will work, together you will play,
Side by side, each and every day.
Honor and trust, please give to each other,
Bonding your lives, to one another.
Respect and honesty, good marriages do share,
Remember to thank the Lord, in daily prayer.
Always be partners, lovers, and friends,
A circle of love that never ends.
The vows that you say, on this very day,
Join you together, as you go on your way.
A man and a woman will share one life,
Together and always, as husband and wife.
 With Love,
(Your Name)

Verse # 3-1             Mom & Dad

Mom And Dad

A very special thank-you, comes your way,
As we celebrate, this, my wedding day.
Throughout my life, you have given your best,
I certainly know how much, I have been blessed.
You were always there to lend a hand,
I always knew, by my side, you would stand.
You taught me to believe in the Lord,
And never to buy, what I couldn't afford.
We have had our problems, there is no doubt,
For now I know what a family, is all about.
As I enter a marriage, a dream come true,
I ask for blessings, from both of you.
You have given me guidance and direction,
I give to you, my love and my affection.
You both are a treasure, I am so glad,
To have you as parents, my mom and dad.
Love,
(Your Name)
(Wedding Date)

Verse # 3-15               ~ To My Parents ~

To both Parents from Bride or Groom
Verse 3-15              
~ To My Parents ~

I want to take this opportunity to tell you both how
I am feeling today, so full of love, today this, my wedding day.
In growing up, you taught me the values that I would need
to become the person that I am today.
You taught me to be kind, unselfish, and give of myself to others.
You taught me respect, which I give back to you each and every day.
You taught me strength and courage.
 Strength to find my own way, even when times were tough.
Courage to continue on a path which might be bumpy at times,
but to follow my heart and keep
On trying and never to quit or give up on a challenge.
When I was young, you wiped my tears from my cheeks.
Now today, if I see a tear or two fall upon your cheeks,
 I know they are tears of joy, true joy for me.

 I love you both!

  Verse 7-1                    25th Wedding Anniversary           

~ To Couple's Names  ~
Celebrating A Special Love
Of 25 Years

 Anniversaries are celebrations, oh, yes indeed,
For those special marriages, that do succeed.
For twenty five years, you have shared your lives,
With caring and kindness, keeping romance alive.
A love with a silver lining, you do obtain,
Because love in your hearts, still does remain.
You have shared many good times over the years,
With joy, and laughter, and even some tears. 
We surely know, there is no doubt,
The two of you know, what forever, is all about.
The way that you smile at each other,
Shows a bond, like no other
.
You've made dreams and miracles all come true,
You're living proof, just look at you.
You both have found a treasure in life,
You are a wonderful couple, husband and wife.

With Love,
(Your Names)

Verse 7-2                              Fifty Golden Years

To (Couple's names)
As You Celebrate

Fifty Golden Years Of Marital Bliss

 Fifty golden years of marital bliss,
A warm embrace, a gentle kiss.
A tender moment, a loving touch,
Are special memories, that mean so much.
Together you believed, together you prayed,
Together you played, together you stayed.
A love like yours, doesn't happen every day,
You've weathered the seasons, and made your way.
You have made your house into a home,
One where love stayed, and did not roam.
You never knew, how much your love would grow,
When you exchanged wedding bands, fifty years ago.
No amount of silver or gold ever replaces,
The love in your eyes, and the smiles on your faces.
So, hold on tight, to the riches you have found,
A marriage made in heaven, forever bound.

With Love,
(your names)

Verse 8-1               Graduation Is A Celebration

~(Graduate’s Name) ~

Graduation is a celebration meant to share.
It is a challenge and triumph, I do declare.
The best in life is yet to attain,
If your faith in God, and in yourself, does remain.
Trust your own instincts, to guide your way,
And listen to your heart, in what it does say.
Remember, most setbacks are mind over matter,
Use good judgment, and climb that ladder.
Your strength and courage will help you to achieve,
Your goals in life, in which you believe.
Life occasionally gives us a shower or two,
It may slow you down, but don’t let it stop you.
Reach for the stars, don’t settle for less,
Believe in the abilities, that you possess.
Continue to learn, continue to grow,
Then success in your life, will clearly show.

Congratulations!

Verse 1-8                And the Greatest of these is Love . . .
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy,
it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no
record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but
 rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts,
 always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love.
But the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8, 13
 

Love, if the heart is willing, grows stronger every day.
May you both love each other more today
than you did yesterday, but less than tomorrow. 

Today, (wedding date) as
(Name and name), become one with the Lord . . .
We wish you both the best that married life can offer.
