Dearly Beloved and Honored Guests,

We are gathered together here to join Dylan Thomas Porter and Alissa Renee Downey in the spiritual union of marriage.

Marriage is a journey, and today we celebrate finding the one who truly understands you, makes you laugh, and will be by your side through all of life’s ups and downs. It’s about building a life together, filled with love, fun, and shared experiences. At the heart of it all is love—something that will grow with you both in every chapter ahead.

Dylan Thomas Porter and Alissa Renee Downey will now share their vows.

(Vows)

Do you, Dylan Thomas Porter, take this woman, Alissa Renee Downey, 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, Alissa Renee Downey, take this man, Dylan Thomas Porter, 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)

Dylan Thomas Porter and Alissa Renee Downey will now exchange rings as a symbol of their love and commitment.

(During Ring Exchange)

"These rings are a symbol of the promises you’ve made today. Their unbroken circle represents your unending love and the commitment you share from this day forward."

(Ring Exchange)

By the authority vested in me by American Marriage Ministries and the State of Ohio, I now pronounce you husband and wife.

You may now kiss!

(Pause for the kiss)

Ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to introduce, for the first time, Mr. and Mrs. Porter!
