Dearly Beloved and Honored Guests,

We are gathered here to join Adam Philip Lanclos and Payton Marcella Istre 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.

in presenting yourselves here today to be joined in marriage, you perform an act of faith. This faith can grow and develop and last, but only if you both decide to make it so. I would ask that you both remember to treat yourself and each other with respect, and remind yourself often of what brought you together today.

Give the highest priority to the tenderness, gentleness and kindness that your marriage deserves. When frustration and difficulty assail your marriage - as they do in every relationship at one time or another - focus on what seems right between you, not only the part that seems wrong.

VOWS EXCHANGE

OFFICIANT TO THE COUPLE

"Since it is your intention to enter into marriage, please face each other and join both your hands."

Adam and Payton will now share their vows.

*(Vows)*

Do you Adam Philip Lanclos take this woman Payton Marcella Istre to be your lawfully wedded partner, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and bad, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself unto her for as long as you both shall live?

*(Wait for Confirmation)*

Do you Payton Marcella Istre take this man Adam Philip Lanclos to be your lawfully wedded partner, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and bad, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself unto him for as long as you both shall live?

*(Wait for Confirmation)*

Adam and Payton will now exchange rings as a symbol of their love and commitment.

A ring is an unbroken circle, with ends that have been joined together, and it represents your union. It is a symbol of infinity, and of your infinite love. When you look at these rings on your hands, be reminded of this moment, your commitment, and the love you now feel for each other.

Adam, place the ring on Payton’s's finger and repeat after me:

Payton, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love with the pledge: to love you today, tomorrow, always, and forever.

And now...Payton , place the ring on Adam's finger and repeat after me:

Adam, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love with the pledge: to love you today, tomorrow, always, and forever.

By the authority vested in me by the State of Louisiana I now pronounce you husband and wife!

Adam you may kiss your bride !!
