Hi! My fiance and I are getting married on 09.12.09. Two months from today! We will have one reading from the book of Colossians chapter 3 verses 12-17. I understand that this may exceed 12 lines but I would love to have your beautiful handwriting in our bedroom. These verses go as follows…”Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with on another and , if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you must also forgive. And about all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” If we could have any part of this done, that would be great! We hope to live this out in our marriage. Thanks!

Suddenly, quietly, you realize that – from this moment forth – you will no longer walk through this life alone. Like a new sun this awareness arises within you, freeing you from fear, opening your life. It is the beginning of love, and the end of all that came before. – Robert Frost

What a wonderful idea! Thanks for being so generous! I would like to have a song “The Book of Love” Peter Gabriel’s version–some lines from it in calligraphy…It has so many sweet wonderful verses…but my fiancee’ thinks it’s a little slow for our first dance. This would be truly special to me!

This is a wonderful idea. My fiance and I decided to compromise on our wedding readings and do two of them, because he is Christian and I am not. Thus, we are doing one Bible reading and one reading that really speaks to us both, because it is about two individuals becoming one, and we feel that is a concept that transcends religion. It is an excerpt from the author Louis de Bernières.

“Love is a temporary madness; it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is.

Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of eternal passion. That is just being in love, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.

Those that truly love have roots that grow towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossoms have fallen from their branches, they find that they are one tree and not two.”

Wow, this is such a wonderful and beautiful idea! My FI and I are writing our own ceremony to make it just us and this would be such a wonderful way to remember the ceremony we put together. Thanks!

My fiance and I aren’t really very religious, so we won’t be doing a traditional wedding with readings, etc. However, we met dancing, and we both love music, so our first song will definitely be a BIG moment! We’re not sure what song we’ll be dancing to yet, but I’d love to have some of the lyrics to that song done in this beautiful calligraphy! Deborah – your work is amazing!

What a great contest!! Deborah’s calligraphy is just breathtaking. I think I’d choose the words to our first dance – ‘Keeper of the Stars’ by Tracy Byrd. My husband-to-be just loves the words to this song, and chose it as our first dance long before he proposed. This would be a truly special gift to present to him before our October wedding
