ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL WEDDING




Another beautiful wedding! Aren't we lucky, to get to be at so many weddings? At every one Milton performs, I silently renew my vows in my heart and think about ways to improve our marriage.
This past weekend, Milton read the vows on the shores of a sparkling Florida lake during an outdoor ceremony. It couldn't have been more wonderful. Or unique. A green grassy lawn. An arbor and the lake in the background. The lake house in the foreground. White skirted tables. Even goldfish swimming in bowls as centerpieces for each table. A band via a DJ. Luscious food. And best of all, a beautiful bride, handsome groom, and lovely wedding party. When the bride and her father danced, we all kinda' teared up at the lyrics of the song. Same with the groom and his mother. Very special.
Milton loves to end ceremonies with an admonition to the groom as a prescription for a good marriage. He asks the groom to repeat these words: "Happy wife, happy life." The audience always laughs. Of course, it's just a joke. It takes two people working TOGETHER and WILLING to do the right things, in order for a marriage to succeed.
