When giving a Wedding gift it is very important to
consider the circumstances of the Marriage these days. Is it the first
ever marriage, is it a young couple. Is it the second or third marriage?
Considerations about Cultures and Children also help to decide on a
wedding gift.
Give the Gift of health and things they can share:
If the couple likes a good drop, how about a wine cellar?
The things they always want but never buy...find them

Kahlil Gibran on "Marriage":
You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when white wings of death scatter your days.
Aye, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same
music
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together, yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow
"If it weren't for marriage, men would spend their lives thinking they
had no faults at all." --Unknown
"May the joy you share today be just the beginning of a lifetime of
happiness and fulfilment"
"May you never forget what is worth remembering and never remember what
is best forgotten"
