Tori & Corey, Welcome to your wedding day! Let’s begin the way we should begin every special event, with a prayer of thanksgiving: Father, Thank You for joining us here today, thank You for this stunning backdrop where we will celebrate the gift of marriage. Thank You for this couple, for their son, for everyone & everything they hold dear. Thank You for all the blessings You have prepared for their marriage... I pray they might not miss a single one! Thank You for being Our Father & for loving us with an unfailing & eternal love. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Wedding Message from Genesis 2:18-24

......... “When united with man, woman is enough for him to leave his father & mother and begin his own journey in life!” Corey & Tori, today you begin that journey. Earlier this week you awoke as a couple. You traveled together to Las Vegas, visited the Marriage Bureau, settled into your room & survived an unexpected wind storm, which changed your wedding date & your ceremony!

Last night, for the very last time, the two of you went to bed as single individuals. Tonight & every night after may “seem” like last night...... But beginning tonight, “Everything is different!” Tonight Corey, you will be a “husband” & Tori, you will be “his wife” Tonight you rest in the immeasurable blessing of God’s covenant of marriage as the two become one! And in your story, the three become one! Just as the Father, Son & Spirit are One, the promises you make today honor three that form “one family” .... Corey, Tori & Weston.

Are you ready to make those promises?

Do you have rings to serve as a reminder to yourselves & a visible sign to the world? Blessing of the Rings:

Father, bless these rings, make them so much more than the material from which they were created. Give them life with a blessing of “peace & hope” as Corey & Tori build this new life together as husband and wife... give them “courage and strength” as Corey & Tori face the challenging seasons & “kindness, grace & unfailing love” as Corey and Tori celebrate the journey ahead! These rings are symbols not only for the two of you but for a generation who have forgotten the treasure of marriage. Today we have very few witnesses but in the coming days, the two of you will walk out God’s blessing of Hebrews 12:1, “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.” I’m so happy Nicole selected this Dry Lake Bed for your ceremony because it’s such a blank slate. Your pictures will be a powerful testament that it’s the “two of you“ & the big beautiful palette that will be your life!

Go out & paint the most beautiful masterpiece because your son, your friends & your family are watching!

Wedding Vows:

Corey & Tori, you began this day as two individuals; Mr Rowe & Ms. Goon. I believe it’s time to change that now!

Tori, is it your desire that Corey be your lawfully wedded husband? If so, please repeat after me. I, Tori, on our wedding day, accept these beautiful privileges;

I get to laugh with you & cry with you, I get to care for you & share with you. I get to walk with you & chase dreams with you, build a life & a home & a family with you. I accept the man God has given me to live out my life with. I don’t have to honor & cherish you... I get to! Corey, accept this ring as a memento of my love for you.
