Celebrating marriage is, in its own right, a very biblical event - in fact, it’s one of the very things we’ll be doing in eternity, at the marriage supper of the Lamb and the Bride!

An earthly covenant mirroring this divine relationship between God and His people is a beautiful and sacred event - but the reason that this is so sacred is often watered down by the world, and the visuals amped up for public appreciation.

Do you want to ensure that your wedding is visually rooted in its original meaning, per the Bible? We’ve gathered some ideas that can help weave your ceremony & reception with the threads of the truest love to ever exist - the love found in our Friend, Savior & King.

🌸 Have a prayer wall🌸

🌸 Serve others🌸

I recently read of a couple who insisted on serving food to the waitstaff who served their guests. Others have had slices of wedding cake delivered to hospitals and similar places. Clearly, these couples realized how beautiful it was to engage in acts of service to others, even while being celebrated as the VIPs of the day! While the secular world tends to make the wedding day wholly devoted to the bride & groom (well, mostly to the bride), it is a refreshing change for a Christ-centered couple to step out of the limelight and step into the deep care and humility that our Lord Himself showed us.

There are so many ways to creatively acknowledge God with the skills and talents He has given us. We hope the few options we’ve mentioned has fired up your inspiration in planning your own faith-filled wedding!
