Hello All,

The weather was perfect, the breeze blowing softly and the scent of flowers was in the air as Joel and Laura were married in the Rose Garden at Ault Park. Below is their ceremony which included two very nice readings. They also had a violin soloist who played softly through the ceremony.

Laura was in a very simple but elegant dress and Joel was wearing a brown suit. The flowers were calla lilies in several colors bound together by ribbon. It was a very elegant evening.

Good Luck and God Bless.........Rev. BB

LOVE by Roy Croft

Love you not only for what you are but for what I am when I am with you. I love you, not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you for the part of me that you bring out; I love you for putting your hand into my heaped-up heart and passing over all the foolish, weak things that you can't help dimly seeing there, and for drawing out into the light all the beautiful belongings that no one else had looked quite far enough to find. I love you because you are helping me to make of the lumber of my life not a tavern but a temple; out of the works of my every day not a reproach but a song. I love you because you have done more than any creed could have done to make me good, and more than any fate to make me happy. You have done it without a touch, without a word, without a sign. You have done it by being yourself. Perhaps that is what being a friend means, after all.

Read before the Vows

It is often said that it is love that makes the world go round.
However, without doubt, it is friendship which keeps our spinning existence on an even keel.True friendship provides so many of the essentials for a happy life - it is the strong foundation on which to build an enduring relationship, it is the mortar which bonds us together in harmony, and it is the calm, warm protection we sometimes need when the world outside seems cold and chaotic.True friendship holds a mirror to our foibles and failings, without destroying our sense of worthiness.True friendship nurtures our hopes, supports us in our disappointments, and encourages us to grow to our best potential.Laura and Joel came together as friends.Today, they pledge to each other, not only their love, but also the strength, warmth and, most importantly the fun of true friendship.

VOWS

Joel do you
promise to share your live openly with Laura, to speak the truth always, to honor and care for her, to cherish her, and to encourage growth and fulfillment all the days of your lives in hockey or not?

I DO
Laura do you
