  • Creating Your Own Ceremony
    Your Joy ful Wedding Creating y our Own Ceremony You can create a ceremony that is unique, personal, and deeply meaningful for you and your spouse-to-be. It can also be moving, beautiful, and fun for your guests. It takes some thought and creativity, but there are resources to help you. Here are some ideas to get you started. Explore your heritages Most people, if they are willing to look far enough back, will find traditions from their past that can bring a very personal and meaningful flavor to the ceremony. For example, you could acknowledge your grandparents’ Indian background by wearing henna tattoos on your hands and feet. Make choices that reflect your relationship Wedding songs are a traditional way to express your feelings for one another. Your special song can be included, even if it’s Alanis Morissette’s “Head Over Feet”! One couple left the church to “When I’m 64” by the Beatles. Another sang “Unforgettable” to each other. Special phrases can also be a part of the service. If you have a way of expressing your love each other (“I’ll love you to infinity and beyond” or the sign language symbol for “I love you”), it can be woven into the message, a prayer, or your vows. Share parts of your relationship When you choose someone to perform your wedding, talk with him or her about your relationship. Your celebrant can then create a message that is personal to you. Your guests will also enjoy hearing stories about your relationship. You can start your wedding by personally welcoming everyone and telling a little about your journey to the altar.

  • Nesen I. the Horse in the Wedding Ritual of Central Polissia. Несен
    ВИПУСК № 14 Irina NESEN Kyiv THE HORSE IN THE WEDDING RITUAL OF CENTRAL POLISSIA The wedding ritual as a complicated and developed system conceals various symbols and plots associated with them, which are represented by some characters. Sometimes they are animals reflecting different surrounding objects and phenomena. Such phenomenon forms a special zoological code1. In old times animals were objects of the cult (zoolatry). But this phenomenon is not always connected with totemism2. Horse occupies a prominent place among such animals and it is one of the oldest cultural symbols. But its role in the wedding ceremony is not examined enough because of the lack of the source base. A chief aim of the article is to distinguish horse role and place in Central Polissia wedding ritual. The research is based on the field materials gathered by the author on the region territory during the expedition, exactly in 30 villages of Emilchyns’kyi, Luhyns’kyi, Malyns’kyi, Narodyts’kyi, Ovryts’kyi, Olevs’kyi districts (Zhytomyr region), Ivankivs’kyi, Polis’kyi, Chornobyl’skyi districts (Kyiv region), Rokytnivs’kyi district (Rivne region), Iziaslavs’kyi district (Khmelnytsk region). In the world’s mythology the horse is always associated with the male deities – patrons of different worlds. Very often it is an inhabitant of the upper world air and in this meaning it possesses some birds features and is a zoomorphic deity or a helper at the last3. Among the Indo-Europeans horse is not only an assistant of the god of fire Agni, but a cosmic animal, whose parts are associated with the main parts of our Universe4.

  • Getting Married in the Presbyterian Church in Ireland Getting Married
    Getting Married in the Presbyterian Church in Ireland Getting Married Contents 4 What do we mean by Christian marriage? 8 What do we mean by marriage preparation? 10 What about my circumstances? 13 What do I do next? 22 Some concluding thoughts 2 Presbyterian Church in Ireland Congratulations on your engagement. The next few weeks and months will undoubtedly be an exciting whirlwind of activity, as you make all kinds of wedding plans. This booklet is designed to explore the ideals of Christian marriage and to assist you with the practicalities involved in a church wedding. We’ll help you understand the legal requirements and look at possible orders of service, including vows you might exchange as bride and groom. While much emphasis can be placed on the big day itself, we would stress the importance of good marriage preparation – laying the foundation for an ever loving, deepening and enduring marriage. 3 Getting Married What do we mean by Christian marriage? Traditionally marriage is defined as the voluntary union for life, of one man and one woman, to the exclusion of all others. As an institution it predates the church and has been on the scene since the beginning of time. Marriage is very much part of God’s loving design for humanity. As early as the opening chapter of the first book of the Bible, Genesis, we are told that God created human beings, male and female. Every person is unique, special and of equal importance, since all are made in the image of God. It is also pointed out that God made woman as a companion for man.

  • Chapter 5: Around the World
    Chapter 5: Around the World READING TEST “Wedding Traditions” By Diego Pelaez 1. A friend of mine is getting married next Saturday, and I am the best man. I rented a tux, and I plan to enjoy myself at the party. But why is he getting married? Here in Quebec, weddings are becoming irrelevant. A recent survey showed that almost 40 percent of Quebec couples are in common-law relationships. Still, I have a part to play in a “white wedding,” so I decided to investigate the ritual. Weddings have a fascinating history and a great variety of traditions. 2. In a white wedding, the bride and groom marry in a church or temple, and exchange vows and wedding rings. The bride wears a long white gown, carries flowers, and has at least one bridesmaid. White wedding traditions have practical and supernatural sources. Originally, white symbolized “purity” because the bride was expected to be a virgin. Also, in past centuries, the bride carried flowers to mask body odour because people rarely bathed. Imagine if you suggested that a bride carry flowers for that reason now! Do you know why bridesmaids have to wear those embarrassing gowns? In previous eras, people believed that evil spirits would take away the bride. If bridesmaids also wore long gowns, the spirits would get confused and not recognize the bride. Apparently, evil spirits don’t have very good vision. 3. Throughout most of human history, a wedding was a business deal. The wife was considered the husband’s property. Often, the bride’s parents had to give money to the groom’s family.

On behalf of Holy Family Parish, we want to congratulate you on your decision to begin preparing for the Sacrament of Marriage.

It also places a responsibility on us to help and support you the best we can so that your life as a married couple is long and fruitful. The information in this booklet is only a guide. One of the most important contacts you will have with the parish will be the priest or deacon who will lead your preparation for the Sacrament of Marriage and preside at your wedding.

Finally Sandra Hyde-Page and the members of the QWHA, for their limitless dedication and care which is the foundation on which this whole project is built. PAGE 4 FOREWORD FOREWORD The world of the social history museum is a microcosm of the society from which it has arisen. It reflects the educational and social standards of historic and contemporary life and will change its focus as it is influenced by cultural change. Today it is no longer acceptable for a museum to simply exist. As Stephen Weil said in 2002, museums have to shift focus “from function to purpose” and demonstrate relevance to the local community.
