We had an instant connection and started seeing each other. Three years later, I invited all of our closest family and friends to the Lights Lantern Festival and asked Amanda to marry me.<br \/>\n\u2800<br \/>\nWe both had children before we got together, but we came together as a family so easily and naturally. I had our oldest, Shawn, and Amanda had Averie and Ricky. We&#8217;ve parented together and have made so many unforgettable memories with each other, but this wedding was the one thing missing. Now we can say, we have seen it all, done it all and most importantly, we did it together.<\/p>\n<p><a

Amanda&#8217;s mom walked her down the aisle, and her dad was the officiant. We did a sand unity ceremony with him reciting the Four Directions Blessing:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Blessed be this union with gifts of the East and of Air.<br \/>\nFrom the east you receive the gift of a new beginning with the rising of each morning Sun, the dawn wind breathing into you both open of heart and purity of mind and body.<br \/>\nMay you know that each new day is an opportunity to grow in all you establish in this sacred moment.<\/p>\n<p>Blessed be this union with gifts of the South and of Earth.<br \/>\nIn the south we see the earth that will feed and enrich you,<br \/>\nhelping you to build a stable home to which you may always return.<br \/>\nMay you walk upon it with respect, that it may provide sustenance, fertility and security of being, sheltering you for all of your days upon it.<\/p>\n<p>Blessed be this union with gifts of the West and of Water.<br \/>\nIn the west we see the storm clouds and the oceans, the mystery of water teaching you the capacity to feel emotion through tears of sadness and of joy.<br \/>\nMay you offer absolute trust to one another,<br \/>\nvowing to keep your hearts open and provide for each other in triumph and in strife, and traveling together into the deepest places one can travel to, trusting that everything will come together in Creator\u2019s Time.<\/p>\n<p>Blessed be this union with gifts of the North and of Fire.<br \/>\nIn the north we see the northern lights, teaching us the importance of energy, passion, creativity and the warmth of a loving home.<br \/>\nMay you seek and share with one another the light that comes from the fire within, and may it guide you through the darkness; for there is no darkness without light and there is no light without darkness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a
