    The Art Of A Good Marriage
    (shortened version)

    Wilferd Arlan Peterson

    A good marriage must be created.
    In marriage the little things are the big things...
    It is never being too old to hold hands,
    It is remembering to say "I love you" at least once a day,
    It is never going to sleep angry,
    It is having a mutual sense of values and common objectives,
    It is standing together and facing the world,
    It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family,
    It is speaking words of appreciation and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways,
    It is having the capacity to forgive and forget,
    It is giving each other an atmosphere in which each can grow,
    It is a common search for the good and the beautiful,
    It is not only marrying the right person, it is being the right partner

    &

    'On Your Wedding Day'
    Today is a day you will always remember
    The greatest in anyone's life
    You'll start off the day just two people in love
    And end it as Husband and Wife
    It's a brand new beginning the start of a journey
    With moments to cherish and treasure
    And although there'll be times when you both disagree
    These will surely be outweighed by pleasure
    You'll have heard many words of advice in the past
    When the secrets of marriage were spoken
    But you know that the answers lie hidden inside
    Where the bond of true love lies unbroken
    So live happy forever as lovers and friends
    It's the dawn of a new life for you
    As you stand there together with love in your eyes
    From the moment you whisper 'I do'
    And with luck, all your hopes, and your dreams can be real
    May success find it's way to your hearts
    Tomorrow can bring you the greatest of joys
    But today is the day it all starts

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Combo Breaker
    we did our own "vows" when we gave each other our rings, the offical part was either just before that or just after(i was so excited i cant remember)
    there were lots of tears, i even wore waterproof mascara/eyeliner but i still ended up with "panda eyes" which i made a joke about as my husbands nickname is panda, and i truly was now mrs panda
