Welcome! A wedding is such a wonderful occasion, filled with hopes, dreams, and excitement. We have come here today to celebrate and support the choice of _____ and______ to join in marriage. Love is a miraculous gift, and a wedding is a celebration of that magic, and that’s why we are here today—to share in that magic.

We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life's greatest moments. Today we witness the joining of two hearts as we unite _______&_______ in marriage.

Dear friends and family. Today we welcome and thank you for being part of this important occasion. We are gathered together on this day to witness and celebrate the marriage of_____ and ____. We can all describe love in many ways and love can look different from one person to the other, but we all know love when we see it. And we can see love right here.

Reading

Readings consist of one or more selections (poems, lyrics, stories, etc.) to be read aloud during a carefully selected moment throughout the ceremony. The selections are meant to convey a feeling or message that provides a window into the couple's unique world and may be read by a friend, family member or the Officiant. If you're really stumped on finding the right reading for your ceremony, it's important to remember that wedding ceremony readings are completely optional. Don't include a reading in your ceremony just for the heck of it—make sure that it's something that fits the tone and style of your wedding day.

“You were my reason back then, my reason now, my reason every day. You strengthen my weaknesses, bring focus to my dreams. Here and now I pledge my life to yours, that your dreams become my dreams. No matter where life leads me, I know that as long as you are there, that is where I am meant to be.”

“I promise to love you, to be your best friend, to respect and support you, to be patient with you, to work together with you to achieve our goals, to accept you unconditionally and to share my life with you forever.”

“I vow to fiercely love you in all of your forms, now and forever. I promise to never forget this once-in-a-lifetime love. And to always know in the deepest part of my soul that no matter what challenges might carry us apart, we will always find our way back to each other’

Closing Words

Officiant's closing words

Select Only One

Today you have pledged yourselves to a lifetime of caring for one another. May this be a commitment made in love, kept in faith, lived in hope and eternally renewed. As you stand before us, it is our hope that you will go through life loving, trusting, and caring for one another, completely & forever. From this moment forward you will never be alone & you carry with you the love of another person.

Your wedding day is a day filled with many emotions. So I want you to take a few seconds to look into each others’ eyes. Think about that happiness you’re feeling in this place, in this moment. Really let that feeling register in your heart and in your mind. Now, stop and look out at your family and friends. Always remember, they are here to support you and the next chapter of your love story.

A final thought before I pronounce you: “You meet thousands of people and none of them really touch you, and then you meet one person and your life is changed forever.”

As we close, remember, to make your relationship work it will take love. It will take trust, to know, that in your hearts, you truly want what is best for each other. It will take dedication to learn & grow together. It will take faith, to go forward together, without knowing exactly what the future brings, & it will take commitment, to hold true to the journey you both have pledged to today.

“May you love deeply, laugh heartily, practice patience and smile often. May you dream together, grow, be crazy, give, give in, and trust enough to take. May you see many sunrises, listen to the rain, savour special moments and rediscover each other over and over. May you have health, happiness and a lifetime of rich adventure.”
