LOVE LOCKS Ceremony

LOVE LOCK CEREMONY

Description: 

There are several ways the ritual can be done. The couple can use a pair of heart locks that they padlock together, or padlock on a single chain, or the couple can use a single lock and secure it to a permanent structure. The couple will then throw away the keys so the locks can never be unlocked, opened, and released from the chain or structure. The following wording may have to change depending on the how the couple choose to lock the padlocks.

Wording:

Bride and Groom have just pledged their lives to one another, symbolized by promises made and with the giving and receiving of rings. They wish to further symbolize the strength of their commitment with a Love Heart Lock Ceremony.

These two padlocks represent their recognition of the dedication and courage necessary for securing a strong and healthy marriage. Bride and Groom will now attach their locks to the chain, symbolic of unity, wholeness, and completion. Bride and Groom have united in love and trust for a common purpose, for what was separate will now become whole and complete. As their hearts, bodies, and minds are joined together in a bond, these locks demonstrate that Bride and Groom are forever joined together in a lifelong partnership and an abiding friendship. This is a promise between two people that they will forever strive to both complement and complete one another.
