I got this from another forum... scripted prayer for invocation.
"Heavenly Father, we ask you to bless this food and those who prepared it and those who will serve it. We also ask your blessing on
[bride's name] and [bridegroom's name] who have come to you this day to unite themselves to you in love and sacrament, and upon their
families. In Jesus' love.... Amen."
"Lord Jesus Christ, we thank you for the food we share tonight, in celebration of [bride's name] and [bridegroom's name]'s marriage
We thank you for the love, guidance and support of our parents, family and friends
We thank you for making this day so enjoyable, and bless those that have worked hard to
make this day a success for [bride's name] and [bridegroom's name]. Thank you Lord for the freedom we have in our lives and the beautiful
country we enjoy it in. Heavenly Father, we ask this blessing for the newly married couple,
May their love be firm, and may their dream of life together be a river between two shores--
by day bathed in sunlight, and by night illuminated from within.
May the heron carry news of them to the heavens, and the salmon bring the sea's blue grace.
May their twin thoughts spiral upward like leafy vines, like fiddle strings in the wind,
and be as noble as the Douglas fir.
May they never find themselves back to back without love pulling them around into each other's arms. Amen."
