An Apache Wedding prayer:
Now you will feel no rain,
For each of you will be shelter to the other.
Now you will feel no cold,
For each of you will be warmth to the other.
Now there is no more loneliness,
For each of you will be companion to the other.
Now you are two bodies,
But there is only one life before you.
Go now to your dwelling place
To enter into the days of your togetherness
And may your days be good and long upon the earth.
From the Tao Te Ching:
“A Sacred Space” by Lao Tzu
Your love requires a space in which to grow.
This space must be safe enough
To allow your hearts to be revealed.
It must offer refreshment for your spirits
and renewal for your minds.  
It must be a space made sacred
by the quality of your honesty,
attention, love and compassion.  
It may be anywhere,
inside or out,
but it must exist.
From an Eskimo love song:
You are my husband, you are my wife
My feet shall run because of you
My feet dance because of you
My heart shall beat because of you
My eyes see because of you
My mind thinks because of you
And I shall love, because of you.
From The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran:
Love one another, but make not a bond of that love.
Let it rather be like a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
And stand together, and yet not too near together.
For even the pillars of the temple must stand apart;
and the oak tree and the cypress will not grow in each other’s shadow.
Remember that love gives nothing but from itself.
Love possesses not, nor would it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love.
And think not that you can direct the course of love.
For love, if it finds you worthy, will direct your course.
From The Divine Comedy
by Dante Alighieri
The love of God, unutterable
and perfect, flows into a pure
soul the way light rushes into a
transparent object.  The more
love we receive, the more love
we shine forth; so that, as we
grow clear and open, the more
complete the joy of loving is.  
And the more souls who
resonate together, the greater
the intensity of their love for,
mirror-like, each soul reflects
the other.
