✦ Stand by each other through both the beautiful moments and the difficult ones. Be each other’s support, safety, love, warmth, friendship, faith, joy, and happiness.

Words of Wisdom for Marriage

✦ Love wholeheartedly and celebrate the small moments and achievements — they are what create a life rich with unforgettable memories.

✦ Make time not only for everyday responsibilities, but also for thoughtful gestures that make your partner feel loved, appreciated, and truly seen.

✦ Never go to bed without making peace and listening to each other.

✦ Being there for one another matters, because in the end, you are each other’s safest place in the world.

✦ Dream big — not only for yourselves and your careers, but also for your love and the life you are building together.

✦ Don’t lose yourselves in each other, and don’t expect the other person to be responsible for your happiness. Each of you must nurture your own happiness first. When you do, you’ll be able to share that happiness with one another — and there will be no limit to how much joy you can create together.

✦ May your love for each other, for yourselves, and for life always be your greatest strength. Move forward with courage, and let the past serve only as a springboard for what comes next.
