Wedding Ceremony Sample  

         

We have come here today not only to witness their commitment to each other, but also to wish them well and to share their joy in the new life they now undertake together.

We who love, can look at the one we love and say,
“I touched his life”, or “I touched her life”, or “I was part of his life, and it is a part of me”. That is a privilege of being a Husband or a Wife: to be oneself, and yet another. That is the strength of marriage; to face the challenges of one with the courage of two.

 

It takes trust to know in your heart that you want only the best for each other. It takes dedication to stay open to one another, to learn and grow, even when it is difficult to do so. And it takes faith to go forward without knowing what the future holds for you both, living your life with love and faith is not a destination, but a journey.

 

Marriage is a time for celebration and a time for renewing bonds of love, loyalty, family and friendship, so important in all our lives; and marriage is, perhaps, the ultimate expression of these bonds.

 

Through (Groom's) and (Bride's) decision to publicly exchange vows today, confirms their commitment to a marriage that has already taken place in their hearts and minds. That commitment is made public today, before all of you.

 

Renewal of Vows by Guests

Celebrant:

As (Bride) and (Groom) make their vows, let all other couples, families and group of friends take this opportunity to reflect on the friendship, love and happiness they share with each other.

 

Lighting the Candle Ceremony

Celebrant:

The candle lit symbolises our memories of those who could not be here with us today to share in the celebration of this special occasion.

 

Affirmation of Intent

Celebrant:

Do you, (Groom) take (Bride) to be your lawful wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, so long as you both shall live?

 

Groom:

I do.

 

Celebrant:

Do you, (Bride) take (Groom) to be your lawful husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, so long as you both shall live?

 

Bride:

I do.

 

Wedding Vows

Groom:

(Bride), with all that I ma, and all that I have, I take you to be my wife.

 

Bride:

(Groom), with all that I am, and all that I have, I take you to be my husband.

 

Welcoming a Child in the Relationship

Celebrant:

(Bride) and (Groom), in joining your lives together, you also accept the responsibility of your child who makes up your family. Do you promise to give (child) a peaceful and loving family home, to continue to care for her, and at all times to have her best interest at heart?

 

Bride and Groom:

We do.

 

It takes a groom...it takes a bride...

Two people standing side by side,

It takes a ring, and vows to say, this is our happy wedding day.

 

But marriage vows are sanctified

And loving hearts are unified

When standing with the bride and groom

Unseen by others in the room

The spirit of the Lord is there, to bless the happy, bridal pair.

For God is love, and married life is richer for both man and wife

Where God becomes a partner too

In everything they plan to do.

For God is love, and married life is richer for both man and wife

In everything they plan to do.

For when God's love becomes a part of body, mind and soul and heart

Their love becomes a wondrous blending

That's both external and unending

and God looks down and says: well done,

For now you two are truly one.

 

Ring Ceremony

Celebrant:

This ring is the symbol of the vows here taken, circle of roundness, perfect in form. This ring marks the beginning of a long journey together, filled with wonder, surprises, laughter, tears, celebration, grief and joy.

 

Groom:

All that has been said today, I pledge this symbol. With this ring I thee wed.

 

Bride:

All that has been said today, I pledge this symbol. With this ring I thee wed.

 

Declaration of Couple as Husband and Wife

Signing the Marriage Register

 

Love is like magic and it always will be

Love still remains life's sweet mystery!

Love works in ways that are wondrous and strange

And there's nothing in life that love cannot change!

Love can transform the most common place

Into beauty and splendour and sweetness and grace!

Love is unselfish, understanding and kind, for it sees with its heart and not with its mind!

Love is the answer that everyone seeks

Love is the language that every heart speaks.

Love can't be bought, it is priceless and free

Love like pure magic is a sweet mystery

 

Celebrant:

(Bride) and (Groom), may this love with which you join your hearts and hands today, never ever fail to grow deeper and stronger as the years go on. and if true love and the spirit of sacrifice guide your actions, you can expect the fullest degree of happiness that may be shared by a man and a women.

 

We who are here present, and those who are absent thinking of you, hope that the inspiration of this hour will not be forgotten. May you continue to love one another for ever.
