I don't know if you can necessarily call these "quotes" but I like these little sayings I've gathered along the way....

"Tears of joy, Tears of laughter, Tears of Happily Ever After"

 Ambrose Bierce:  "Love is temporary insanity curable by marriage"

 Mignon McLaughlin: "A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person."

 Rainer Maria Rilke: "A good marriage is that in which each appoints the other guardian of his solitude."

 Rita Rudner: "I think men who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage. They've experienced pain and bought jewelry."

Will Stanton: "Getting a dog is like getting married. It teaches you to be less self-centered, to accept sudden, surprising outbursts of affection, and not to be upset by a few scratches on your car."

The Bible: 

For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

and the standard:  "Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be"

"Where there is love, there is life" Mahatma Ghandi

If I know what love is, it is because of you. Hermann Hesse

Love conquers all things, let us surrender to love. (or in Latin: Amor vincit omnia et nos cedamus amori) Virgil

A more wedding focused quote: Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words. Plautus

Here are my favs

Love is the life of the soul, it is the harmony of the universe - William Ellery Channing

If I could reach up and hold a star for every time you've made me smile, the entire evening sky would be in the palm of my hand - Unknown

Love doesn't make the world go 'round; love is what makes the ride worthwhile - Franklin P. Jones

I have nothing more to give you than my heart - Spanish saying

Here is my heart, guard it well - French saying

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

From A walk to remember.  My favorite quote. 

My favorite is a quote from a song

Dido "Thank you"

 I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
is having the best day of my life
