Rodney Alan Flinn

Dearly Beloved and Honored Guests,

We are gathered together here to join Clayton Dean Gibson and Veronica Renee Muncada Black in the spiritual union of marriage.

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.

And now an Irish Blessing,

"Happy is the bride that rain falls on

May your mornings bring joy and your evenings bring peace.

May your troubles grow few as your blessings increase.

May the saddest day of your future

Be no worse than the happiest day of your past.

May your hands be forever clasped in friendship

And your hearts joined forever in love.

Your lives are very special,

God has touched you in many ways.

May his blessings rest upon you

And fill all your coming days.

Clayton and Veronica will now share their vows.

*(Vows)*

Do you Clayton take this woman Veronica 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 Veronica take this man Clayton 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)*

Clayton and Veronica will now exchange rings as a symbol of their love and commitment.

*(Ring Exchange)*

Repeat together after me, this Irish Vow of Unity

We swear by peace and love to stand,

Heart to heart and hand to hand.

Hark, O Spirit, and hear us now,

Confirming this our Sacred Vow."

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

Clayton, you may now kiss your bride!
