Dearly Beloved and Honored Guests,

Thank you for joining us here today. Life is a journey and we each have our own path to walk, but if we're lucky one day our path combines with another and we are joined by a travel companion, a lover, a best friend no longer walking alone. On this beautiful day we gather here to witness two paths joining together as Madelene Cabando & Keith Sargent join together in the union of marriage.

Marriage is not easy. Marriage takes work. Its a union of two people and its important that you realize & never forget that life is no longer about you alone, but you as a couple. Marriage has good days & bad days, ups & downs, happiness & sadness, but as long as the marriage has love, trust, communication, and most importantly forgiveness. It can last for ever.

- Reading

Forgiveness is important.

Lao Tzu once said “Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”

It takes courage to ask for forgiveness and strength to forgive. Be brave and be strong. Ask for forgiveness when you do wrong and forgive when you are wronged.

- Declaration Of Intent

"Do you Madelene Cabando take this man Keith Sargent to be your lawfully wedded husband, 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?

Minister (To Keith Sargent)

Keith as you place the ring on Madelene's finger repeat after me: I give you this ring as a symbol of my unconditional love & a promise to always walk beside you as my equal as we continue our journey through life together.
