“God in heaven above
please protect the ones we love. 
We honor all you created
as we pledge our hearts and lives together. 
We honor mother-earth – and ask for our marriage to be abundant and grow stronger
through the seasons.
We honor fire – and ask that our union be warm and glowing with love in our hearts.
We honor wind – and ask we sail though life safe and calm as in our father’s arms.
We honor water – to clean and soothe our relationship – that it may never thirst for love.
With all the forces of the universe you created,
we pray for harmony and true happiness as we forever grow young together. Amen.”
