Flowers for Mary

I am working on my programs and want to include a short explanation of why we will be presenting Mary flowers during the ceremony.  Any suggestions would be great!  Thanks so much for yor help!

    How about:

    "As Catholics, [you] and [your FI] look to Mary as the perfect example of a wife and a mother, and to the Holy Family as model they hope to emulate in their life together. For this reason, [you] will present a bouquet of flowers to the Blessed Virgin as she prays that Mary's example will guide their family on God's path for them."

    Meltoine, that's really beautiful.  Did you improvise that or did you find the explanation somewhere?
