Elizabeth, repeat after me:
John, I love you
and I take you as my husband,
To have to hold,
To honor and respect you,
To listen and support you,
To share your joys and sorrows,
To give you back rubs
and comfort you,
and to understand
when you need time
to watch Leo Laporte
or play Simpson’s Tapped Out.
From the day’s morning sun
to the night under the Milky Way,
I faithfully pledge
to enjoy every moment
on this journey of life
as your wife in the eyes of God
until death separates us.
This is my solemn vow.

with the blessings of rain,
and they seeped into the earth
and formed turquoise –
the “sky stone” – as shown in Elizabeth’s symbol of love for John.
It represents blessings, protection, good health and longevity.
May God bless and protect you, and may your love for one another be everlasting.

to overcome life’s trials,
