The Royal Wedding!

This morning, as the world watched, Prince William and Catherine Middleton were united as husband and wife [and Duke & Duchess]! Wow talk about pressure!! I wasn't going to watch but then as it got closer and everyone talked about it the excitement & anticipation rose within me. So I pushed through it and stayed up. I watched it on my laptop and on my television simultaneously. It was Beautiful!! I love weddings because they are so emotional and real! That's when you see that look of pride on a young man's face as he sees his wife-to-be all dressed up and looking like the definition of beauty. His eyes light up and she is so high on love! It's perfect...I loved the ceremony and especially Bishop London's Sermon  [check it out by clicking on that link]
He said a few things that stood out to me as priceless:

"Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire"          

"In a sense every wedding is a royal wedding with the bride and the groom as king and queen of creation, making a new life together so that life can flow through them into the future."  

"A spiritual life grows as love finds its centre beyond ourselves. Faithful and committed relationships offer a door into the mystery of spiritual life in which we discover this; the more we give of self, the richer we become in soul; the more we go beyond ourselves in love, the more we become our true selves and our spiritual beauty is more fully revealed. In marriage we are seeking to bring one another into fuller life."

"Marriage should transform, as husband and wife make one another their work of art."

Beautiful words and now the beautiful couple:

 As he entered

 The sweet Bride as she entered....

 Exchanging vows

Prince & Princess.....Duke & Duchess of Cambridge at last!!

This truly was the wedding of the Century!
