Elizabeth Pavka & Carroll Thompson vows Below are the wedding vows from Elizabeth and her second husband, Carroll. These unique wedding vows show how different second marriages can be from first marriages for some couples.

Elizabeth Pavka & Carroll Thompson, December 28, 1991

In love, we two have become one that we may each nourish the independent expansiveness of the other;

We together seek that higher spirituality which is for all humans;

We acknowledge joy and laughter as the wings of life;

We caress the Earth as our beloved home in space;

We recognize the stars as relatives to the light in us;

We cherish our individuality and our separateness as the binding agents which drew us together as one, yet hold us apart as two;

We affirm all humans are one people, all life one life, all Spirit one Spirit;

We face the frontier of our personal spiritual development with joy;

We now unite our hearts, souls, bodies, energies, minds, senses, and emotions, that we each may more fruitfully serve the higher purposes we have accepted for ourselves;

God is Love. Love is Light. Light is God in us.

We came as two. We go as one. We are in Universal Union.
