Dearly Beloved and Honored Guests,

We are gathered together here to join Derrick and Elizabeth in the spiritual union of marriage.

Who give this Bride away!

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.

Derrick and Elizabeth will now share their vows.

*(Vows)*

Do you Derrick take this woman Elizabeth to be your lawfully wedded partner, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and woe, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself unto her for as long as you both shall live?

*(Wait for Confirmation)*

Do you Elizabeth take this man Derrick to be your lawfully wedded partner, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and woe, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself unto him for as long as you both shall live?

*(Wait for Confirmation)*

Derrick and Elizabeth will now exchange rings as a symbol of their love and commitment.

*(Ring Exchange)*

Derrick , as you place the ring on Elizabeth's finger, please repeat after me:

As a ring has no end, neither shall my love for you. I choose you to be my wife this day and forevermore."

Elizabeth , as you place the ring on Derrick’s finger, please repeat after me:

As a ring has no end, neither shall my love for you. I choose you to be my Husband this day and forevermore."

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