The Newly-Wedded

Now the rite is duly done;
Now the word is spoken;
And the spell has made us one
Which may ne'er be broken:
Rest we, dearest, in our home, -
Roam we o'er the heather,-
We shall rest, and we shall roam,
Shall we not? together.

From this hour the summer rose
Sweet breathes to charm us;
From this hour the winter snows
lighter fall to harm us;
Fair or foul - on land or sea -
Come the wind or weather,
Best and worst, what're they be,
We shall share together.

Death, who friend from friend can part,
Brother rend from brother,
Shall but link us, heart and heart,
Closer to each other:
We will call his anger play,
Deem his dart a feather,
When we meet him our way
Hand in hand together.

(Winthrop Mackworth Praed 1802-1839)

Given In Love

Wedding rings symbolize commitment a circle that has no begging or end. The sanctity of marriage and honor. So when looking to get the wedding rings, search bear in mind what you want them to represent. Personalize them and have meaning behind them. Rings are an ancient symbol, blessed and simple. Round like the sun, like the eye, like arms  that embrace Circles, for love that is given comes back round again and again. (James Ford, with Leif Hass & Margaret Handley)
