The Irish blessing:
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
May the rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of His hand

I read the Apache wedding blessing at a friend's wedding:
Sorry its caps, I copy/pasted from a website
APACHE WEDDING BLESSING"
NOW YOU WILL FEEL NO RAIN, FOR EACH OF YOU WILL BE
SHELTER FOR THE OTHER. NOW YOU WILL FEEL NO COLD,
FOR EACH OF YOU WILL BE WARMTH TO THE OTHER.
NOW THERE WILL BE NO LONELINESS, FOR EACH OF YOU WILL BE
COMPANION TO THE OTHER. NOW YOU ARE TWO PERSONS,
BUT THERE IS ONLY ONE LIFE LAID OUT BEFORE YOU.
MAY BEAUTY SURROUND YOU BOTH ON THE JOURNEY AHEAD.
AND THROUGH ALL THE YEARS, MAY HAPPINESS BE
YOUR COMPANION AND YOUR DAYS TOGETHER BE GOOD
AND LONG UPON THE EARTH.
TREAT YOURSELVES AND EACH OTHER WITH RESPECT.
REMIND YOURSELVES OFTEN OF WHAT BROUGHT YOU TOGETHER.
GIVE THE HIGHEST PRIORITY TO THE TENDERNESS,
GENTLENESS AND KINDNESS THAT YOUR CONNECTION DESERVES.
WHEN FRUSTRATION, DIFFICULTIES AND FEAR ASSAIL YOUR
RELATIONSHIP ~AS THEY THREATEN ALL RELATIONSHIPS
AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER~REMEMBER TO FOCUS ON WHAT IS
RIGHT BETWEEN YOU, NOT ONLY THE PART WHICH SEEMS
WRONG. IN THIS WAY YOU CAN RIDE OUT THE STORMS
WHEN CLOUDS HID THE FACE OF THE SUN IN OUR LIVES.
REMEMBERING THAT EVEN IF YOU LOSE SIGHT OF IT FOR A
MOMENT, THE SUN IS STILL THERE. AND IF EACH OF YOU
TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE QUALITY OF YOUR LIFE
TOGETHER, IT WILL BE MARKED BY ABUNDANCE AND DELIGHT.

Most pastors and/or hymnals have one or more such prayers.
Try this:
Jesus, allow us to always share your love for us with each other. May this love grow ever strongner in our life together. Amen.
May the Almighty One grant you great joy.

Ask for forgiveness and ease up on the punishment.
