Joyful Wedding : A Spiritual Path to the Altar
- Book Review,
by Susan Piver (Compiler)
Book Description
The decision to marry is most often a decision made out out of love and passion. Immediately following, however, we often find ourselves deluged by guest lists, menus, and outfits. It's easy to lose sight of the deeper meaning of this commitment-- and even of each other.
This is a wedding-planning book with a difference: It helps you focus on each other, plan a wedding that is uniquely your own, and prepare spiritually for marriage.
Included in Joyful Wedding are simple, practical exercises for envisioning your ceremony, creating personal vows, and coming home to a relationship that can last a lifetime.
May these practices be of benefit.
