Reading after the lighting:

May the blessing of light,
Be with you always,
Light without and light within.
And may the sun shine
Upon you and warm your heart
Until it glows
Like a great fire
So that others may feel
The warmth of your love
For one another.

Re: caribbean wedding traditions

this sounds nice -

Having each family member and close friend tie a ribbon onto the broom handle, and voicing their blessing to the couple, is a nice way to show that these people will be there for the couple, throughout their lifetimes," she says.

The bride and groom can complete the ritual by tying a ribbon and saying a few words to each other.
