writes:The Wedding SpeechRemember this day, your wedding day. Not for the dresses and suits, not for the extravagance, nor the dinner and dancing, but remember your wedding day because of the reasons you chose to marry your spouse. Remember who is it that you picked to marry on this day, and why you picked this person over all other choices available. Remember the reasons why you chose to get married and how it fits in with your plans, life goals and why you decided that the person that you wanted as your spouse was a reflection of everything you felt is important to you enough that you wanted to make him or her part of your family.The ritual of the wedding is more than just a celebration of your new union, it is to mark the change in your lives as individual I’s to a unified sign of a “we”. As a “we”, you call on all those people closest to you both to witness and be a part of your togetherness, in the hopes that not only will they be celebrating your endeavor; they will also be employed in the ongoing support of your new and future family.To you, the wedding guests, please know and remember that your role in being present, is more than the gifts you offer, your toasting their happiness, and your boost to start the new couple in their new life together. Your role as participants in a wedding audience is that you have also accepted a role in the ongoing support of the new couple to help keep this new family together through the hardships and triumphs that life can and will force upon us.For better or for worse, isn’t just a saying. It is a reminder. Life gets very real when you have someone else to care for and think about. If and when you are blessed with children, the realness of every decision you both make is even more intense, and on this wedding day, you both pledge to do your best to suffer them together, and support each other, even when neither of you are not be at your best. There will be times you both will make mistakes, when you both will etch an emotional scar, when you will have to deal with financial worries, mental health concerns, new limits on your physical abilities, accidents, the challenges of well meaning people, having to move and change with the times, and the death and passing of people close to you. As you both pass into the next stage of your lifespan, up to and even past the point of being present for the weddings of your own children and grand children, please…remember this day.On this day, the day of your wedding, remember every reason you had to make the commitment to start this journey together, knowing that life together would not be easy but that you still wanted to go through with it. Remember this day because it was the event you chose to create it to be. Remember the love that brought you together, the willingness to stand together, and the drive behind making your intent to build a future together a public decree. When either of you are overwhelmed by life, and it is likely to happen more often than not over the course of your lives together, remember your wedding day to remind you why you chose to make it happen. Remember your wedding day, to help you build and create a better future for the two of you, through each and every new day you decide to stay together and honor the promise as best you can everyday. Remember your wedding day, when some days are better, when some days are worse, and take it one day at a time.
