I’ve had marriage and weddings on my mind lately. I’ve attended two wedding receptions this past month (the latest one pictured above), and I’m attending my firstborn’s wedding this coming Saturday. One wedding send-off involved sparklers, this one above involved blowing bubbles, and I’m looking forward to seeing what happens this weekend.

Why is marriage so important? President Dallin H. Oaks, an apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ, and his wife, Sister Kristen Oaks, pictured above, answered that question last night in a worldwide devotional broadcast to young adults. Watch below. It’s all soooo good! Look at the photo of them above, eating dinner. Aren’t they so adorable? Sister Oaks speaks from experience of being a single, longing to be married. She married for the first time at age 53, when she married President Oaks.
