Choosing the right vows for your ceremony can enhance your wedding dramatically.
Below, you will find an example of a typical ceremony I perform.

All  ceremonies can be customized to add your own special touch... so YOUR ceremony is special and
significant to YOU. Add or remove religious references, personal beliefs, personal experiences, etc.
Introduction

"We are gathered today to celebrate one of life's most cherished moments.

The joining of two hearts, to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love, and to add our best
wishes to the words which shall unite bride and groom in marriage.

Should there be anyone who has cause why this couple should not be united in marriage, please speak
now or forever hold your peace.

For this Couple, out of the routine of ordinary life, the extraordinary has happened. They met one
another, fell in love, and now consummate their union in marriage.

A healthy marriage must be created and fostered. It's remembering  to say "I love you" in bad times as
well as the good,  to stand by one another unconditionally, and always leave one's heart open to
forgiveness. Marriage in not necessarily about finding the right person, rather, finding the right partner."
