It is my belief that marriage is made holy by two souls in communion, not by the order of the law.

Lynn Cullen
About This Quote

Marriage is a sacred vow we make to each other and to the world. It was made by the will of our Creator and that’s why it is called holy. When we go through the process of getting married, we take our vows and stake our claim on the world, promising that we will love each other forever no matter what life brings us. We are not just making vows out of respect for the law but out of love for each other.
