I woke up this morning and realized that I would be ushering two people into their married life at 6:30 tonight. I have written and revised the ceremony numerous times and now have to settle with the fact that it is what it is. Don't get me wrong, I believe it is a thoughtful ceremony but I feel a heavy responsibility when I marry people to give their day special consideration and to channel that consideration through my words. As with writing short stories, I am trying to capture the essence of my subjects, my characters, and to be as open and honest about them as I can. I want to capture the essence of what is important in their lives and their day.
Wish me luck.
