Henry: Stevie, Dmitri... this is what I know about marriage and life. You win some-a, you lose some-a. But the true test of character is how you celebrate the victories and endure the losses. And believe me when I tell you, both are better when you face them with someone you love. Now, one of the things I admire about Aquinas -

Henry: Come on. ... was that he was inspired to teach beginners. You two are hardly beginners at life, but you're beginners at marriage. This is your first day as a wife and husband. Begin this journey with caring and patience and love and laughter and passionate curiosity. Be each other's teachers and know that you are surrounded by people in this room that love you and will teach you. And invite us over a lot, will you? Especially your mom. You know, in our house I was sometimes known as the Stevie whisperer. So without further ado... may God bless you with a long and happy union.
