After bridal party enters. Everyone please rise.

After brides arrive. Everyone please be seated. Brides give their flowers to the maids of honors.

Dear family, friends and our 2 honored guests. We are gathered here today to join Samantha Casarella and Marisa Guerra in this joyous occasion of marriage and are happy that your family and friends will share this special day with you.

It all started with a glance in the conference room of a STEM meeting at school. Then friendship and love evolved. I had the pleasure of picking up on this and watched my 2 friends over the next 2 years through all the fun and special times such as, cooking and happy hour chats, vacation planning, hard no's, the engagements, buying the house, and all the wedding planning. I was happy to be a part of it all and was honored when they asked me to be the officiant at their wedding.

Everyone should be so lucky to find love and to have that love hopefully blossom into marriage. This legal binding contract is to be entered into thoughtfully and seriously, and with a realization of its obligations and responsibilities. Please remember that love, loyalty, and understanding of one another are the foundations of a happy home and life. You compliment one another's personality and each of you bring something uniquely special to this union. Starting today you will become better versions of yourselves.

Samantha and Marisa will now share their vows they have written for each other. Give them their vow sheets.

Samantha, do you take Marisa to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, in good times and bad, for richer and richer, and to love and cherish for the rest of this lifetime?

*(Wait for Confirmation)*
