I just watched the whole thing and all I have to say is WOW!
That was a beautiful video!!! Adam did a great job and it seems that everyone had an amazing time at your wedding!!!
You look gorgeous!!
I loved your readings...what were they, esp the one you did together?
Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to watch our video - we're so in love with it, and couldn't recommend Adam and Pennylane more highly!!!
I've gotten a lot of FM about the readings...so here they are for anyone who's interested!!!
First Reading (Old Testament) which I read the first verse, he read the second, and we read the third in unison...
A reading from the Book of Ruth
Wherever you go, I will go
Wherever you live, so will I live
Your people shall be my people
and your God shall be my God too
Whatever you dream, I will dream
Whatever you love, so will I love
Your freedom shall be my freedom
And your love shall be my love too
Wherever you will be, I will be
And there I will stay beside you
May God do these things for us
May God watch over us and bless us
This is the word of the Lord.
Second Reading (New Testament) In this one, I really love the line that's repeated twice that talks about 'nothing coming between your love for each other and God's love for you...'
Romans 8:31-39
Since God did not spare His own son
but he gave him up to benefit us all,
we may be certain that after such a gift to us,
He will not refuse us anything he can give us.
God will be with you.
Nothing, therefore, can come between your love for each other and God's love for you as found in Jesus Christ.
Even if you are troubled, or worried, or suffering
Even if you are lacking food or clothes,
even if you are not accepted by others,
attacked or threatened;
no matter what you have to go through,
you will triumph over them by the love and power of God as found in Jesus Christ.
I am certain of this. Neither death nor life, no angel or earthly prince, nothing that exists, nothing still to come, no power on earth, no height, no depth, or any created thing, can ever come between your love for each other, your love for God, and God's love for you.
The word of the Lord
Gospel
John 15:9-12
Jesus said to his disciples:
'As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Remain in my love. If you keep my commandments you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my own joy may be in you and your joy may be complete. This is my commandment: Love one another, as I have loved you.'
This is the gospel of the Lord.
