Their story

Certain of you

Colin and Jeannette’s wedding film includes a memory of a conversation in a car. Colin had said that one thing was certain: he wanted to marry Jeannette. The person sharing the story remembers that conviction clearly. What began as a private conversation becomes a story shared with the people who love them.

Around that memory, the ceremony describes the character of a shared life. Compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience are named, along with the need to forgive. These are offered as qualities to remember daily, carrying the meaning of the wedding beyond the celebration itself.

Their promises give those ideas a familiar rhythm: to honour, comfort and cherish one another, and to remain together through changing circumstances. A prayer gives thanks for Colin, Jeannette and their families, while the exchange of rings speaks to the lasting bond they are making.

The welcome in the speeches is just as heartfelt. There are commitments to pray for them and support them, and gratitude for the partners their children have found. Their wedding in the Lac La Biche area celebrates Colin’s certainty about Jeannette and the patience and care they promise to share.
