Wine and Card Ceremony
When Ginger and Fred first met, she introduced him to wine, and since then they have enjoyed many bottles together. On this, their wedding day, Ginger and Fred have written each other private letters. They will now put them away in this box with this bottle of wine. This is one bottle that is to be enjoyed on one very special occasion, on their 25th wedding anniversary. 25 years from now, you may open the bottle and read each other’s letters and reminisce about today, May 29th 2011
Marriage can be difficult at times and your patience may be tested; and God forbid, you may even have tough times. However, before you let anything come between the two of you, take the time and open the wine and read each other’s letters. Remember how in love you were this day, and get back to the love you feel for one another in this moment.
A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.” ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic's Notebook, 1966

Excerpt from The Bridge Across Forever
A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we're pretending to be. Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person we're safe in our own paradise. Our soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we're two balloons, and together our direction is up, chances are we've found the right person. Our soulmate is the one who makes life come to life.
