    For me to have watched a video over 30 mins long of someone's wedding it truly means it was beyond meaningful and beautiful. Congratulations on your love not too many people are lucky to find that one person that can be their forever in the eyes of the lord. May God bless your marriage. This video made teary-eyed.

      Those that walk in purpose and in the will of God will receive the fullness of Him blessing and promises for their life, all are entitled those don't find 'the one in Lord' God has for them are out of alignment with His will..and have been trying to do without God present in the picture of their relationships..God doesn't make any mistakes but we do, walk in the will and we will find our 'one' along the way of your path as the steps of a good man are ordered..It not being good for a man to be alone the elimination 'of that loneliness' is eliminated by His will..which is "marriage for you" Be blessed IJN walk in the will and receive the promises 🔱

    I am extremely overwhelmed, I ask my self while watching this, why do we at times forget that we can only build a solid building, when our foundation is Jesus Christ. I am truly blessed by this. Many are scared to get married in our time, because of divorce stats, but this video changed my perception of marriage, change my fears to a desire. God bless you Ryan and Amanda.

    I watched this a few years ago and rewatched it again today. The memory of your friends and family gathered around you, laying hands on you in prayer, has rung in my mind these past few years. This moment helped set a Godly standard on my own future relationship. Because of this I was able to allow myself to have a Godly standard (a standard of the highest and most valuable kind) for a relationship. I thank Jesus for you two, because you are just His anointed blessing to all of us. God has blessed me by allowing me to see such a God centered couple and wedding. I cannot express how grateful I am to Jesus for this video. This goes without saying but my Father God continue to bless you Amanda and Ryan.

    I feel like I'm being what people would call today, "petty"... Nonetheless I just wanted to come and say that I remember your beautiful story 3 years later after you first shared it. There's been so much buzz on the internet regarding the "Forever Duncan" couple, and while I know there's no need to compare, I just remember the love I felt watching your video. I remember truly seeing Jesus at the center of it all, I could even sense His presence through your video. So I just wanted to thank you, and commend you and your husband for being godly examples. The bible does say give honor where honor is due, and somehow I feel as though you both deserved to know this. I will be re-sharing your video again! I hope no one will think I'm being petty! Haha! God bless you both.

  • @Mykolejane1
    @Mykolejane1 10 лет назад

    This was so beautiful I don't see how anyone could ever think this is fake or say anything about this. As for him not telling her he loves her for five years, that really doesn't matter. Saying I love you is something huge its not something you just throw around. Did you ever think that he showed her his love, you don't always have to tell someone you love them. Actions speak louder than words and this video is proof. I don't know a man who would plan his own wedding to make his bride happy, her dream wedding at that. She had forgotten that she had told him she wanted to get married the same day she gotten engaged but he remembered. That's extremely hard to come by. This is true love and who doesn't see that is blind. I hope the best for these two, and I see them having such a wonderful future together. God bless. (:

    Amanda, I just want to tell you guys... This, as a single woman, has inspired me sooo much. It reminded me of how important it is to wait for the Man of GOD that HE has already made 'just for me'! You guys really have no idea how much this has inspired me to not settle for anything less than what GOD has for me. I'm so glad you guys allowed us to be apart of your special day. (-:

These two obviously love & respect each other. He obviously has a job that allowed him to put this event together and they had the love of a host of family/friends helping to get things done & supporting them. Not sure what part people don't see. But I'm very glad they shared their story with all of us.

And now, years later, as I prepare to marry in a less than 2 months I chose to revisit this video. Years later, and I am able to sense the Holy Spirit that rests upon your lives all over again. I pray you have had the most wonderful life together thus far and that you will continue to hold each other in such high regard forevermore. I don't know you, but I pray that the love of Christ that fills our lives keeps you and sustains you. May God continue to bless your union....and now, my own. :)
