INVOCATION

Welcome family and friends. We are gathered here today to witness and celebrate the marriage of Danny Layne Snider and Adrienna Renee” Ponthier. This is not the beginning of a new relationship but an acknowledgment of the next chapter in their lives together. Layne and Anna have spent years getting to know each other, and we now bear witness to what their relationship has become. Today, they will affirm this bond formally and publicly.

Layne and Anna will mark their transition as a couple not only by celebrating the love between themselves, but by also celebrating the love between all of us—including the love of their parents, siblings, extended family, and best friends. Without that love, today would be far less joyous.

DECLARATION OF INTENT

Do you Layne take Anna to be your lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and not so good times, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself unto her for as long as you both shall live?

I do.

Do you Anna take Layne to be your lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and not so good times, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself unto him for as long as you both shall live?

I do.

RING EXCHANGE

A ring is an unbroken circle, with ends that have been joined together, and it represents your union. It is a symbol of infinity, and of your infinite love. When you look at these rings on your hands, be reminded of this moment, your commitment, and the love you now feel for each other.

Layne, place the ring on Anna's finger and repeat after me:

Anna, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love with the pledge: to love you today, tomorrow, always, and forever.

And now...Anna, place the ring on Layne's finger and repeat after me:

Layne, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love with the pledge: to love you today, tomorrow, always, and forever.

PRONOUNCEMENT

Before these witnesses, you have pledged to be joined in marriage. You have now sealed this pledge with your wedding rings. By the authority vested in me by the State of Louisiana, I now pronounce you Husband and Wife! Layne you may now kiss your bride.

Friends and family for the first time may I introduce, Mr. and Mrs. Danny Layne Snider -
