Ellen & Sam

“Ellen’s dad is a priest so we asked him to officiate the ceremony. Although we had a religious wedding ceremony, we didn’t want it to feel too over the top. So we mixed religious elements with more modern readings, including an extract from “Gift from the Sea” by Anne Morrow Lindbergh and “An Uncommon Love” by Terah Cox.”

“An Uncommon Love” Terah Cox

May you have the love only two can know.
May you go where only two as one may go.
May the sun rise and set in your bonded hearts

and the moon never find you too long apart.
May you cherish each other’s dreams as your own

and turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones.
May you brave life’s mountains and miles together.
May there be no storm your love cannot weather.

May you be lovers and allies and friends.
May your soul’s conversation never end.
May you capture on earth what’s in heaven above.
May your hearts know the rapture of an uncommon love.
