this is my wedding this weekend:
Introduction
Dearly beloved, we are assembled here in the presence of God and these witnesses to celebrate the joining of Terry and Sheila in the unity of marriage.
There are no obligations on earth sweeter or tender than those you are about to assume. There are no vows more solemn than those you are about to make.
There is no human institution more sacred than that of the home you are about to form.
True marriage is the holiest of all earthly relationships.
The state of matrimony is based this deep, invisible union of two souls who seek to find completion in one another.
Do you understand this? (Respond by yes, nodding, etc.)
Giving of the Bride
Who gives this woman in marriage?
Parents or Sponsors: We do.
The Challenge
Will you please face each other and join hands?
Terry, will you take Shelia, whose hands you hold,
choosing her alone to be your wedded wife?
Will you live with her in the state of true matrimony?
Will you love her,
comfort her,
through good times and bad,
in sickness and in health,
honor her at all times,
and be faithful to her?
And promise her that you will always be a steeler fan?

Exchange of Vows and Rings
As you take these I would have you remember:
To love is to come together from the pathways of our past
and then move forward
...Hand in hand,
along the uncharted roads of our future,
ready to risk
, to dream,
and to dare
.... And always believe that all things are possible
with faith
and love in God,
and in each other.
Will you repeat after me?
I Terry , take you shelia to be my wife,
to love and cherish,
from this day forward,
and there to pledge you my faith, love and will always cheer on the pitt. Steelers

I understand you have brought rings as a token of your love?
Let us pray
Bless O God these rings, that each gives, receives, and wears as a token of the covenant between them and God, and may they ever abide in thy peace, living together in unity, in love, and in happiness, and with good purpose do thy will. Amen.
Terry , will you repeat after me: With this ring, I thee wed. Let it ever be to us a symbol of our love.
Shelia , will you repeat after me: With this ring, I thee wed. Let it ever be to us a symbol of our love.
