Aren't weddings the most romantic and wonderful times? Satin, lace, flowers, precious keepsakes AND the promise from one true heart to another - to love and to cherish forever.
For those of us who've been married many years, how much of that special day do we remember?
Or were we too tired from the extended preparations, too worried about whether things will go right - guests who had to be taken care of, photographs we had to pose for, to register much of what was going on amidst the whirlwind of activity?
A dear friend requested this handcrafted Vow Booklet for her friends who are getting married soon.
May it become a special part of their memories and a reminder of their commitment to each other.
Booklet measures approx. 4.5 by 5.75" with hard covers and spine.
Its pages are held in place by triangular crown folds - those in the center can be removed for writing or embellishment simply by lifting up the folds.
On the first page - the theme of the couple's wedding.
On the inside back cover, an envelope to hold more keepsakes or special notes.
For me, putting this booklet together was also a good reminder to cherish my husband and our time together.
No matter how long we've been married, our marriages may be the most important 'work' we ever do. Every day with our spouse (especially after 10 hour migraine-inducing days at work, when there are meals to cook, sick children to look after through the night or simply when we feel overwhelmed by life's challenges) is an opportunity to renew and live up to the vows we made when we were bright eyed and flushed from love.
