Repotia (re-po’-ti-a): 1. The repetition of a phrase with slight differences in style, diction, tone, etc. 2. A discourse celebrating a wedding feast.
1. I need a steak. Feed me meat! I want to consume some tender cow! Moooove it on the meat front! The redder the better!
2. There’s a time for everything as we move through life! You’ve decided this is your time to be married, and you are. After 12 years of dating, you should have a pretty good idea of each other’s positive and negative qualities.
Clearly, the positive outweighs the negative, or we wouldn’t be here today celebrating your marriage!
So, let’s toast to a well-considered decision that is bound to lead to happiness. Eyes wide open, here’s to you–Charles and Wilma.
We wish you a prosperous, joy-filled future!
