Processional

Party enters and guests are seated.

Invocation

Family and friends, thank you all for coming today to share in this wonderful

occasion. Today we are here together to unite Brian Turnblom and

Shannon Dore in marriage. Please, bow your heads as we offer a prayer

for the blessing of this union.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, we gather here today in the beauty of Your creation and

the warmth of Your love to celebrate the union of Shannon and Brian in

holy matrimony. We are grateful for the paths that have led them to each

other and for the journey that unfolds before them.

Bless this joyous day, O Lord, with Your presence and Your peace. As

Shannon and Brian exchange their vows and share their rings, let their

hearts be united in Your divine love. May their love for each other be a

reflection of Your grace and a source of strength as they walk together

through life. Guide them with wisdom, protect them with Your strength, and

bless them with a deep and abiding joy. May their home be a haven of

blessing and a place of peace. As we witness their vows today, inspire us

all to love more deeply, cherish more fondly, and live more intentionally in

Your light. We ask all this in the name of Jesus, who taught us the meaning of love.

Amen
