Officiated by Mary Frances Perry at Millstad Events Center in Joppatowne, Maryland on May 25th, 2025.
"It was a great experience and a pleasure to officiant Alexandrea and Blake's wedding. It took them 10 years to come to this point in their life. The family was so welcoming to me and we talked and joked and had a great time at the rehearsal as well as before the wedding ceremony. Blake was nervous and so was Alexandrea's brother who was holding onto the rings, I told them to just look at me and I will help you through it. I was nervous because I did not want to mispronounce Blake's last name. I pronounce them without any problem. One thing that was so cool and surprise is that Alexandrea's mother said she referred me to her friend, who's daughter is getting married to officiant the wedding, It just so happens I will be officiating that wedding in 12 days, how awesome is that. So I will see them again which is great. Working with the wedding co-ordinator Chasity, and Alexandrea everything turned out as a perfect wedding the way Alexandrea dreamed of and planned. It was a pleasure and I was so happy to marry such a beautiful and loving couple. I wish them the best in their new life journey together ! "
Officiant Walks Outs.
Family and Guests,
Please be seated. Please take note that Alexandrea and Blake have requested that you mute all cell phones. There will be no picture taking during the ceremony until the couple has been united together and sealed with a Kiss. At that time you may take their picture after the photographer has taken their picture.
The Groom walks down and stands and faces the officiant. Once the bride gets to the barrel for her entrance, I tell the groom that he may turn around to see his bride walk down with her father to us.
WELCOME!
We are gathered together here to join Alexandrea Hall and Blake Milanicz in the union of marriage.
Officiant ask who gives this woman to be married to this man?
Then the father answers. I DO, and hugs her/kiss and shakes groom hands and give her hand to the groom.
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.
Officiant tells the bride and groom face each other and hold hands.
First let me tell you a little bit about Alexandrea and Blake. These two love birds worked together back in the year 2015, wow 10 years ago. That's way back. During that time they became friends which lead to be more closer than just friends, feelings started to spark. With that spark from cupid, two 2yrs later they started dating in 2017. They enjoyed their journey together ever sInce. For them being friends first only strengthen their relationship, from best friends to partners. So now finally they have decided to complete their journey to openings a new chapter in their journey of their life together as partners of Life, family and friends we are here to witness.
Alexandrea and Blake make that commitment.
Officiant asks:
Alexandrea do you welcome Blake to be your husband and your cherished best friend?
Alexandrea responds - Yes or I do.
Blake do you welcome Alexandrea to be your wife and your cherished best friend?
Blake responds - Yes or I do
Before you pledge your vows to one another, let's pause for a moment and take in the beauty that surrounds us here. Take a look at your guests and feel the love for you - as well as the love you have for each other.
Please look into each other's eyes as you share your promise to each other
Alexandrea Hall first, then Blake Milanicz will share their vows.
Officiant :
Do you Alexandrea Hall take this man Blake Milanicz 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 Blake Milanicz take this woman Alexandrea Hall 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)*
Alexandrea Hall and Blake Milanicz will now exchange rings as a symbol of their love and commitment. Tyler walks up by the bride and hands one to me
Officiant: Hold one ring that is to be given to the bride.
Officiant Speaks and says:
What is a ring- a ring has no beginning or end. Its path is endless. In reality a ring is no more than a circle of metal on its own. But similar to the joint of two people in matrimony, with the addition vows, a ring represents an endless promise never to be broken. These rings are to be an outward symbol of the love and commitment between you both and a daily reminder of your vows.
*(Ring Exchange)*
Officiant :
Alexandrea Please place this ring on Blake'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.
Blake please place this ring on Alexandrea's finger and repeat after me:
This rings s a token of my love for you. Let it remind you that you're always in my heart.
Alexandra and Blake, by the love that has brought you here today, by the vows and rings you have exchanged in the presence of your loved ones, It is my honor
By the authority vested in me by American Marriage Ministries and the State of Maryland I now pronounce you wife and husband!
