INVOCATION & INTRODUCTION OF COUPLE

Officiant to the reception and couple

Since the days of the first wooden sailing ships, all captains have enjoyed the happy privilege of joining together two people in the bonds of matrimony. And so it is my honor to unite you, (Partner A) and (Partner B), together in matrimony.

(X) years ago, you met as friends and over time fell in love. Now you are ready for marriage -- The final frontier. Your mission: to boldly go where you have not gone before.

DECLARATION OF INTENT 

Officiant to the couple

(Partner A) and (Partner B), you will be crew members, standing together, exploring new worlds, and seeking out new civilizations and new adventures. You will have each other’s backs in times of trouble.

A wise Vulcan once said that “Change is the essential process of all existence.” Nurture your marriage carefully, and watch it grow with care. Remember, it’s a one-way trip.

RING & VOW EXCHANGE

The wedding ring, an unbroken circle, represents unending love. Love, like time, is eternal. When you look at these rings, remember this moment and the love you have promised to one another.

I give you this ring as a symbol of my love,

To love you always.

To love you always.

PRONOUNCEMENT  

Officiant to the couple

As you embark on this new voyage today, remember these words from another great Captain:

"Seize the time... Live now! Make now always the most precious time. Now will never come again.”

Love each other now, today, tomorrow, and always. 

By virtue of the authority vested in me by Starfleet Command, the state of (Name of State), and American Marriage Ministries, I now pronounce you married.

May you both live long and prosper!
