| Kathryn and Lee Bertucelli of Long Island, New York |
| ~ Closing Words and Pronouncement ~ “I would like to close this ceremony with some words of wisdom written by St. Paul in his Letters to the Corinthians. ‘Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends; So in faith, hope, and love, abide these three; but know the greatest of these is love.’ As often as we hear this passage doesn’t it just say everything there is to be said about the art of love, and marriage, so concisely and eloquently? Kathryn and Lee remember these words. It is what has made you each so special that you have chosen to spend a lifetime exploring all many wondrous qualities God has given each of you, to bring out the goodness in one another and to forgive the mistakes that growing and learning means you will each make, knowing in your hearts that your love is what matters most. You are now as your hearts have always known you to be, Husband and Wife. You may kiss your beautiful Bride!” Bride and Groom kiss! |
