Reverend A. Childress

Welcome Everyone. We are gathered here today to join Scott Williams and Hailee Kendall, in holy matrimony.

Scott and Hailee, do you come here today with open hearts and open minds to take each other as your life long partner, to be a loving husband and wife to one another, to honor, cherish, love unconditionally in good times and in sorrow, remain faithful to one another for as long as you both shall live? "We Do" "I Do (Bride)" "I Do (Groom)"

*(Vows)*

Scott take Hailee's hands in yours. I ask you both to look into each others eyes and see them for everything they are and everything they mean to you. Today, you have chosen to write your vows, and it is with these words you express your binding promises to love, honor, and cherish one another.

Scott, When you're ready you may begin.

Hailee when we first met I never imagined this day would come, but now that we are here I couldn’t have imagined choosing anyone else but you to go through life’s journey with. I love your laugh, your smile, your caring nature, and when your face lights up when I bring your flowers. I promise to support you, to honor you, and to love you and our kids unconditionally. I can’t imagine where I would be without you, and I cannot wait to continue this journey with you by my side. I Love You

Hailee, When you're ready, you may begin.

Scotty you and I both know how indecisive I can be at times especially when it comes to deciding where to eat when I don’t feel like cooking. But there is one decision in my life that I know is the right one and that being to spend the rest of my life with you. There are many things I love about you. I love your thoughtfulness and ability to keep me grounded when it feel like my world is caving in. I love your loyalty to me and our kids. I love the way when I come home no matter what kind of day we had, you always give me the warmest hugs. I promise to love you for all my days and to be patient with you even if it means I have to cook anyways cause we can’t decide what sounds good. You are my best friend I love you.

*(Rings)*

Do we have the rings?

These Rings are made of precious metal, but that same metal is also made precious by wearing them.

Your rings are special because they enhance who you are.

They mark the beginning of your long journey together.

The ring is a circle, a symbol of love never ending.

It is the seal of the vows you have just taken to love each other without end.

Scott, please place the ring on Hailee's left hand and repeat these words after me:

Hailee, I ask you to accept this ring as as a small token of my love for you... From this moment forward... So will my love forever encircle you... You will never walk alone... My heart will be your shelter... My arms will be your home... We will walk thru life as partners & best friends... I promise to do always do my very best to love, cherish and accept you... Just the way you are... I give you my heart until the end of time... I have no greater gift to give.

Hailee, please place the ring on Scott's left hand and repeat these words after me:

Scott, I ask you to accept this ring as as a small token of my love for you... From this moment forward... So will my love forever encircle you... You will never walk alone... My heart will be your shelter... My arms will be your home... We will walk thru life as partners & best friends... I promise to do always do my very best to love, cherish and accept you... Just the way you are... I give you my heart until the end of time... I have no greater gift to give.

*(Reading)*

As these rings encircle your fingers, may your divine and constant love encircle your hearts. They are merely symbols of the priceless commitment of this marriage. May they endure the ups and downs of daily life. May they travel life together as a family, joined together as one. May their wisdom grow along with their knowledge of each other’s unique character and spirit.

May there be grace in times of conflict, an ability to communicate during misunderstandings and a deep sense of belonging to each other. May you protect them from all harm. Provide for their needs. Console them in their sorrows. Lift them with joy.

Even when worn with age, may these rings forever shine through all seasons of life.

*(Pronouncement)*

Now that you've taken your vows, professed your love for one another, there is only one more thing left to do...

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

Scott, you may now finally kiss your bride!

Congratulations!

It is my honor to introduce to you for the first time, Mr. and Mrs. Scott and Hailee Williams!
