I truly can’t think of a better venue than the sandy beach of Hilton Head Island, the place of our first and now yearly vacation as a family. As a third-party spectator to Denise & Fernando’s developing love, it was extremely clear that the two of them represent a perfect pairing because each of them compliments the other so well. They balance one another, and while each of them are tremendous individuals on their own, together they are even better. And being better together, as a team, a unit, is what has been many years in the making and ultimately leads us to being here today, witnessing their commitment to one another in front of those they love most. Look at one another and remember this moment in time. Before this moment you have been many things to one another- acquaintance, friend, companion, lover, dancing partner. Now, you shall say a few words that take you across a threshold of life, and things will never quite be the same between you. For after these vows, you shall say to the world, this is my husband, and this is my wife.

VOWS

Nando & then Denise

Declaration of Intent:

Fernando, do you take Denise, to live together in the union of marriage? To take her as your best friend and partner in life? To honor, cherish, and love her, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, for all of your days?

Fernando: I do.

Denise, do you take Fernando to live together in the union of marriage? To take him as your best friend and partner in life? To honor, cherish, and love him, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, for all of your days?

Denise: I do.

The wedding ring's circular shape reflects the unending power of love – a force with no beginning and no end. You should wear these rings proudly and let them remind you each day of your commitment to one another.

Fernando, as you place the ring on Denise's finger, please repeat after me:

I, Fernando, give you Denise, this ring as a symbol of my love. As I place it on your finger, I commit the whole of my heart and soul to you. I promise to cherish you for the rest of my days. I give you all that I am and accept all that you are.

Denise, as you place the ring on Fernando’s finger, please repeat after me:

I, Denise, give you Fernando this ring as a symbol of my love. As I place it on your finger, I commit the whole of my heart and soul to you. I promise to cherish you for the rest of my days. I give you all that I am and accept all that you are.

The two of you have declared your love for each other and your intent to enter into marriage with the exchanging of vows and of rings.

Fernando & Denise, with great joy in front of your friends and family, and by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you Husband & Wife.

Nando you may kiss your bride!
