Welcome Beloved and Honored Guests,

(Opened with a reading from “The Prophet” by Khalil Gibran.)

His words remind us of the cycles that love, yourselves and each other and remind ourselves of how precious you are to one another.

And today we are gathered together here to join Maria Pugo and Darwin Guarango in the spiritual union of marriage because of such love.

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.

Maria Pugo and Darwin Guarango will now share their vows.

*(Vows)*

Do you Maria Pugo take this man Darwin Guarango 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)*

Do you Darwin Guarango take this woman Maria Pugo 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)*

*(Ring Exchange)*

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