1.) WELCOME
Welcome everyone. We are here today to celebrate the joining in marriage of deborah and daniel. They have chosen to mark their commitment to each other with an exchange of vows and we ask that all those here present support them in their marriage and in their efforts to uphold those vows for each other, their friends and family, and their community.
[If deborah is being given away….‘who gives this woman to this man‘….’I do‘
With your blessing we shall proceed]
2.) PRESENTATIONS
Selections of poetry, music or symbolic
rituals by family and friends, if any.
3.) VOWS and 4.) RINGS [combining for this ceremony]
Rings are a symbol of eternal love, they have no beginning and no end, and so with the exchange of rings Daniel and
Deborah symbolise their eternal love.
With this ring, I daniel, take you deborah to be my wife, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, from this day forward for as long as we both shall live.

Now you will feel no rain,
For each of you will be shelter to the other.
Now you will feel no cold,
For each of you will be warmth to the other.
Now there is no more loneliness,
For each of you will be companion to the other.
Although you are two bodies,
There is only one life before you.
Go now to enter into the days of your togetherness.
May your days be good and long upon the earth.
