<p><br /> [00:00.00]As the couple exchange <br /> [00:01.42]wedding vows they will be <br /> [00:02.95]affirming their love and <br /> [00:04.92]making a commitment to each other. <br /> [00:06.67]All the spectators are <br /> [00:08.31]there to wish them well.<br /> [00:09.73]As the time approaches, <br /> [00:11.92]I think back to other <br /> [00:13.90]family weddings over many years. <br /> [00:16.19]My older sisters were <br /> [00:18.16]all married in the same church <br /> [00:19.80]and as brides they <br /> [00:21.44]carried a white Bible  <br /> [00:22.76]decorated with tiny roses. <br /> [00:24.72]The receptions for their weddings <br /> [00:26.91]were all held in <br /> [00:28.12]the same church basement, <br /> [00:29.21]as there was no large <br /> [00:30.85]banquet hall in the local area. <br /> [00:32.93]The feast was usually catered <br /> [00:35.12]by a group of church members.<br /> [00:37.30]Today's wedding reception will <br /> [00:39.60]be held in an arena <br /> [00:40.80]that will be decorated <br /> [00:42.01]with just the right amount <br /> [00:43.21]of fall flowers in  <br /> [00:44.41]wonderful arrays to give it <br /> [00:45.95]dignity yet a touch of glamour. <br /> [00:48.46]The table decorations will <br /> [00:50.10]be a masterpiece. One of <br /> [00:51.86]the table decorations will <br /> [00:53.60]be small  pumpkins, used as <br /> [00:55.46]containers for flowers that <br /> [00:57.11]were collected from family gardens, <br /> [00:58.31]surrounded by a large wreath<br /> [01:00.61]made from long stalks of wheat. <br /> [01:02.68]There will be a few coloured leaves <br /> [01:05.42]placed inside the wreath. <br /> [01:06.63]Maybe they will use <br /> [01:08.15]oak and maple leaves <br /> [01:09.47]to show the splendour <br /> [01:11.00]of the autumn colours. <br /> [01:12.42]The colour of the outfits <br /> [01:13.96]that the bridesmaids are <br /> [01:15.16]wearing will be <br /> [01:16.03]fall colours as well. <br /> [01:17.57]The ingenious decorations will <br /> [01:19.42]be appreciated by the many guests <br /> [01:21.06]attending the festivities. <br /> [01:22.71]At each place setting <br /> [01:25.01]there will be a special paper napkin <br /> [01:26.54]with the bride and groom's name <br /> [01:28.18]printed on it and <br /> [01:29.28]the date of their wedding. <br /> [01:31.13]It will be carefully <br /> [01:32.44]folded placed on top <br /> [01:33.75]and of a linen napkin. <br /> [01:35.40]This will be one <br /> [01:36.93]of the souvenirs the guests <br /> [01:38.24]will have to commemorate <br /> [01:39.23]the special wedding day. <br /> [01:40.43]Also at each place <br /> [01:42.51]will be a few  after <br /> [01:44.15]dinner mints for the guests. <br /> [01:46.34]A miniature tree will also be <br /> [01:48.30]placed at each persons place. <br /> [01:51.37]The intent is for the guests <br /> [01:53.23]to take the little tree home<br /> [01:54.77]and transplant it to <br /> [01:55.86]a special place. In this way, <br /> [01:58.16]our environment is also improved <br /> [02:00.12]and the tree will become a <br /> [02:01.98]living tribute to the young couple.<br /> [02:04.61]The groom will carry <br /> [02:06.80]her across the threshold <br /> [02:08.11]as is customary for <br /> [02:09.54]a young couple as they <br /> [02:10.84]begin their new life together. <br /> [02:12.59]The honeymoon plans will <br /> [02:14.24]take them to the west coast of Canada.<br /> [02:16.75]They will have a week <br /> [02:18.83]of privacy far away <br /> [02:19.82]from friends and family. <br /> [02:21.67]They will inhabit a condominium <br /> [02:23.54]in the town of Whistler, <br /> [02:25.18]British Columbia, in the Rocky Mountains. <br /> [02:27.91]They will feel as if <br /> [02:29.34]they are royalty living <br /> [02:30.32]in a mansion in this little bit <br /> [02:31.96]of paradise on earth. <br /> [02:33.71]Thereafter, they will return home <br /> [02:36.12]to Ontario where they will reside.<br /> [02:38.42]Their original plan to <br /> [02:40.17]spend their honeymoon on <br /> [02:41.48]board a yacht in <br /> [02:42.46]the Mediterranean Sea was abandoned <br /> [02:44.43]when world circumstances dictated that <br /> [02:46.84]our country Canada was a safer choice.<br /> [02:49.90]Earlier this month, as <br /> [02:52.31]I thought about the forthcoming marriage, <br /> [02:54.50]and knew that I would be <br /> [02:55.92]unable to attend, I decided <br /> [02:58.22]to write a message to <br /> [02:59.20]the young couple. The intent <br /> [03:00.95]was that the message would be <br /> [03:03.03]read aloud during the <br /> [03:04.23]wedding reception. In the message, <br /> [03:05.55]I wished them well and <br /> [03:07.84]urged them to cherish <br /> [03:09.16]each other every day.</p>
