Mark 2:19-20 (Holman Christian Standard Bible) “Jesus said to them, ‘The wedding guests cannot fast while the groom is with them, can they? As long as they have the groom with them, they cannot fast. But the time will come when the groom is taken away from them, and then they will fast in that day.’”
Over the years as a pastor and a Navy chaplain, I have officiated at forty-six weddings. I’ve conducted weddings on the beach, on live TV, and in churches large and small. I’ve seen brides come down the aisle adorned in splendor and adorned in the most common of attire. No matter the setting or the clothing, the bride is the center of attention. That is, until she stands by the one she has chosen. In that moment, both the bride and the groom (while retaining their individuality) come together to create something new. And that is simply a beautiful thing to witness.
