The nuptial blessing that is imparted to the newly wed after the doxology is an act of consecration. The covenant
is ratified by God by the action of the Holy Spirit through the ministry of the Church. The reality of marriage is fully inserted into the history of salvation .It recalls to mind the first blessing pronounced by God on Adam and
Eve ; all the other blessings that are pronounced on the couples in the course of time are a renewal of that blessing. Henceforward,the relationship between the newly wed people will be regulated and actualized in the spirit of this ratification effected by the Holy Spirit.
