Welcome, loved ones. We gather on this joyful occasion to celebrate love, laughter, and light on JoAnn and Ralph’s wedding day.

Each of you here represents a piece of (Partner A)’s and (Partner B)’s lives. Whether you came into their lives years ago, or more recently, your presence here is a gift to them – and I know it means a lot to them. Thank you for being here!

JoAnn and Ralph, today, your lives blend seamlessly together and you’re about to embark on the greatest of adventures. A new path is ahead of you, and to navigate it well, there are skills to be learned and practiced daily.

Wilferd Peterson's “The Art of a Good Marriage” reminds us that a good marriage doesn’t just happen, one must be created. In marriage, the little things are the big things; like never being too old to hold hands – and remembering to say, “I love you,” at least once a day.

On that note, lets get to the good stuff.

With this wisdom – and your love - in mind, I now ask you:

-JoAnn, do you take Ralph to be your husband, and your cherished best friend of as long as you both shall live?

-Ralph, do you take JoAnn to be your husband, and your cherished best friend of as long as you both shall live?

Please place this ring on Ralphs’s finger and repeat after me:

This ring is a token of my love for you. Let it remind you that you’re always in my heart.

Please place this ring on Joann’s finger and repeat after me:

This ring is a token of my love for you. Let it remind you that you’re always in my heart.

Joann and Ralph, by the love that has brought you here today, the vows and rings you have exchanged in the presence of your loved ones, it is my delight and honor to pronounce you married!

Ralph you may kiss your bride!!!
