The Sacred Vows: A Union of Love and Commitment

Marriage is the union of two people for the exclusion of all others, voluntarily entered into for life. It is now time for the vows. First, can the groom please confirm his name? Please repeat after me whilst looking at the bride. I take you. I take you to be my lawful wedded wife. To be my lawful wedded wife. I promise to love you. I promise to love you. To care for you. To care for you and to respect you for all of my life. And I respect you for all my life. The bride must now confirm her name. Please repeat after me whilst looking at the groom. I. I take you. Take you to be my lawful wedded husband. To be my lawful husband. I promise to love you. I promise to love you. To care for you. To care for you and to respect you. For all of my life. To respect for you all of my life. We have reached the conclusion of the ceremony, and you have declared before us that you now wish to live and love together in marriage. Let us hope that this day will form a milestone in your lives, one that you will look back upon with much joy and happiness. It therefore gives us great pleasure to pronounce you husband and wife.
