Prayer on Your Wedding Morning

For the bride or groom getting ready on the morning of the wedding.

“Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”

Genesis 2:24 (KJV)

Lord, today is my wedding day. I am excited, nervous and full of gratitude.

Bless this day. Let everything go smoothly, and when something goes wrong, help us laugh and let it go. Keep our focus on each other and on You, not on perfection.

Bless the person I am marrying. Let them feel loved and calm today.

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Make us one, Lord, from today forward.

Bless our families and guests. Let our marriage be strong, joyful and faithful for all our days. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
