I will ask the guest to please stand

As each of you comes down the aisle I will ask your mother "who gives this bride away?"

Once that portion is complete I will ask the guest to please be seated.

I will give you two a moment and ask if you are ready to begin.

Good Afternoon Family, Friends and Honored Guest,

We are gathered together here to join Angela Seaman and Samantha Chaloupka in the spiritual union of marriage.

This contract is not to be entered into lightly but thoughtfully and seriously, and with a deep realization of its obligations and responsibilities. Please remember that love, loyalty, and understanding are the foundations of a happy and enduring home.

Angela and Samantha will now share their vows.

*(If you have personal vows this is when you will share them)*

Do you Angela take this woman Samantha Chaloupka to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and bad, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself unto her for as long as you both shall live?

*(Wait for Confirmation)*

Do you Samantha take this woman Angela Seaman to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and bad, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself unto her for as long as you both shall live?

*(Wait for Confirmation)*

Angela and Samantha will now exchange rings as a symbol of their love and commitment.

*(Ring Exchange)*

By the authority vested in me by American Marriage Ministries and the State of California I now pronounce you wife and wife!
