When it comes to marriage, there are so many things that you can pray for. You can pray for your spouse-to-be, for the marriage itself and for your family. However, there are a few specific prayers that will give your relationship a strong foundation from the start. Here are some of the most powerful wedding prayers:

Vows and Blessings

The vows and blessings are very important parts of the wedding ceremony. They’re what make your union official in front of God and the world, so you want to make sure they’re perfect. Fortunately, there are many different types of vows and blessings that you can choose from.

Marriage Vows

Marriage vows have been around since ancient times, but they weren’t always written down formally before the mid 17th century. Before then, couples made promises to each other through spoken words or actions such as kneeling at an altar together or exchanging rings during their ceremony. In recent years, couples have chosen to write their own vows instead of choosing from prewritten versions because it makes them feel more personal and meaningful to them individually as well as more unique compared to other couples who may choose the same type of vow for their own weddings.

Prayer for upcoming wedding

Dear Lord,

We come to you today with a prayer request. We are newly engaged and are in the process of planning our wedding. We ask for your guidance throughout this journey. Please help us to have wisdom and discernment in making decisions that will benefit not only ourselves but also our families and friends. Guide us to make wise choices so that we may enjoy the fruits of marriage in a healthy and joyful way.

We ask that you would protect us from any evil influences that may try to interfere with our plans or put a strain on our relationship. Give us the strength we need to overcome any obstacles that may arise during this time of preparation. Help us to be patient with each other as we work together towards our goal of having a happy marriage.

We thank you for blessing us with this opportunity to begin life together as husband and wife. Amen

Lord, help me to be the kind of husband I want to be. Teach me how to love my wife and care for her as she deserves. Guide me as we begin our new life together, and help us to work together in harmony. Help me to respect my wife’s opinions and ideas, even if they are different from mine.

Give us patience with each other when we are angry or frustrated, and give us wisdom when we make decisions about our future together.

Give us peace in our hearts as we face problems that may arise in our marriage. May our love for each other grow stronger with every passing day. May we have children who honor You as their Creator and Savior.

Help us to treat all people with kindness and respect, regardless of race or religion or background. Help us live our lives according to Your will so that all may see Your glory through us today and tomorrow.”

Dear Lord,

We come before thee today with gratitude. We thank thee for the many blessings you have given us, and pray that you will continue to bless us in the future.

In particular, we thank you for bringing our families together today so that we may share this day with them. We ask that you bring our children peace and joy as they grow up, and that you give our loved ones health and prosperity.

We also pray for those who are less fortunate than us—for those who are hungry, who are homeless, and for all those in need of your grace. Please help them know their worth as children of God!

Finally, Lord, we thank you for bringing us together today as friends and family so that we may celebrate this special time together! May our joy be as boundless as the ocean waves and as pure as freshly fallen snow! Amen

Lord, we thank You for this food and the hands that prepared it. We thank You for this time together, and for the love that brought us here. We pray that You would be with us as we enjoy Your blessings. Amen

bible verse for mother of the bride

Watching your daughter walk down the aisle with her soon-to-be husband is an indescribable moment. You may wonder (as many moms have) how your heart can possibly be prepared. Change can be difficult, especially when it involves our children.

As Mother of the Bride, you’ll need plenty of room for feelings that come up, and plenty of grace for yourself during a potentially stressful time. You want it to go smoothly; you want her to feel beautiful – to have a day where her feet don’t touch the ground. You want to know the man she’s marrying will be the loving husband he’s called to be. And you’re probably aware that you just can’t control everything (as much as you may want to!)

Remember, your loving Father is right there with you in the midst of it all, and the more you lean into Him, the more you can soak up the joy of the moment. Here are three Scriptures to help keep you grounded:

MATTHEW 11:28 (CSB)

“Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

Jesus’ invitation — “Come to Me” — is always open, and in the face of change His presence is the place to begin. If you’re able, before life gets busy with all things wedding, carve out some time to sit with Him. Consider taking your Bible and journal to a beautiful outdoor spot or favorite coffee shop. Ask yourself some questions: How are you feeling right now? Is there any fear about this new step for your daughter? Do you have a sense of both sadness and joy? Lay your thoughts and feelings before the Lord. Remember that He holds it all and cares about every detail. When the big day comes, turn your heart toward Him often. Share the joy, the gratitude, and even the tears; it’ll keep you centered and make your memories of the day that much sweeter.

prayer for bride from bridesmaid

PHILIPPIANS 4:6 (CSB)

“Don’t worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”

Wedding planning usually comes with a few challenging moments. Some “what ifs” may creep in. There may be tension between loved ones — differences of opinion or confusion about who’s doing what and when and how. The big day comes and some detail isn’t exactly right. Don’t allow the enemy to steal the joy of this time. Sure, the circumstances may not be absolutely perfect, but you can always experience God’s peace in the midst of them.

If worries wake you up at night, keep a little notepad by your bed. Write down whatever is nagging you, assure yourself that you’ll revisit that list in the morning, and release it to God. “Casting all your cares on him, because he cares about you.” (1 Peter 5:7)

If you’re involved in preparations, ask your daughter to sit down with you and share her expectations. Having clear boundaries helps everyone breathe easier. If you’re able, share a time of prayer and lift up any concerns you have. It may be a much-needed connection between the two of you.

HEBREWS 13:8 (CSB)

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”

There is one truth we can stand on when everything feels like it’s shifting around us: “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” As you navigate the waters of this transition, let Christ be your solid ground. As you hold your daughter in your arms in those fleeting moments, remember there is Someone holding you, too. He’s the unchanging One – always there, working in the details, comforting your heart, laughing and crying with you. This One who led you through her growing-up years is not going anywhere. Let that soak in as you reflect on this life-changing event. It’s a new season, but He’s the same wonderful Savior. Here is a little prayer to help during this sweet, amazing, somewhat scary, yet beautiful moment in your (and your daughter’s) life.
