Reading by Captain Corelli's

Oh Monday, Monday, I’m glad is almost over. I know, I know is just the beginning of the week, but, Oh boy, I tell you it was a busy Monday for me…I was so busy early that I didn’t even have time to blog with you all, but before this day is over I have something for you!

Here’s one reading I love, from Captain Corelli’s Mandolin. It’s everything a reading should be- Romantic, poetic and meaningful!

Captain Corelli’s Mandolin
Louis de Bernieres
Love is a temporary madness,
it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides.
And when it subsides you have to make a decision.
You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together
that it is inconceivable that you should ever part.
Because this is what love is.
Love is not breathlessness,
it is not excitement,
it is not the promulgation of eternal passion.
That is just being “in love” which any fool can do.
Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away,
and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.
Those that truly love, have roots that grow towards each other underground,
and when all the pretty blossom have fallen from their branches,
they find that they are one tree and not two.

Everyone have a great evening!

Rehearsal Dinner Tips!

Is the week of your wedding and you are getting ready to have your rehearsal dinner. Typically, most families embrace the idea of a rehearsal dinner as it’s a great way to exchange ideas and good wishes.

For those families that live across the miles, a rehearsal dinner provides an excellent “getting to know you better” situation. And while a rehearsal dinner is not mandatory, it usually is expected. Relaxation is an important aspect of having a wedding. Especially if you want it to become everything you’ve dreamed it to be.

Who pays for the wedding rehearsal dinner?
Traditionally, the groom’s parents pay the rehearsal dinner. Nevertheless, anyone can host and finance the rehearsal dinner. Nothing is actually set in stone. Nowadays families bend and blend, creating their own traditions within their own families.

Important things to consider:
Created a guest list

Booking reservations in advance at a restaurant or venue

Choosing selections on the menu

Phoning those who are invited

Who should you invite?
Most guest lists include the bride, groom, their parents and the members of the wedding party. However, grandparents are often invited as well as the priest, rabbi, or clergyman performing the marriage ceremony. Out-of-town guests too, should be invited if you are inviting extended family.

If not a necessity to send out formal invitations, but if you do, your invitations should be very basic and simple. In addition to a map and driving directions (to the restaurant/venue) your statement should be very short and concise:

Please join us for a wedding rehearsal dinner in Honor of (Bride’s name) and (Groom’s name) at (this location) at (this time)

RSVP: (Hosts name) at (phone number)

Have fun and enjoyed your rehearsal dinner with your love ones!

Blessing for a Marriage

Good Morning and Happy Friday everyone,

Here is a beautiful prayer for all those who believe in the power of love!

May your marriage bring you all the exquisite excitements a marriage should bring, and may life grant you also patience, tolerance, and understanding.
May you always need one another - not so much to fill your emptiness as to help you to know your fullness. A mountain needs a valley to be complete; the valley does not make the mountain less, but more; and the valley is more a valley because it has a mountain towering over it. So let it be with you and you.
May you need one another, but not out of weakness.
May you want one another, but not out of lack.
May you entice one another, but not compel one another.
May you embrace one another, but not out encircle one another.
May you succeed in all important ways with one another, and not fail in the little graces.
May you look for things to praise, often say, "I love you!" and take no notice of small faults.
If you have quarrels that push you apart, may both o f you hope to have good sense enough to take the first step back.
May you enter into the mystery which is the awareness of one another's presence - no more physical than spiritual, warm and near when you are side by side, and warm and near when you are in separate rooms or even distant cities.
May you have happiness, and may you find it making one another happy.
May you have love, and may you find it loving one another.
