We are gathered together here today in this beautiful place as family and friends to join Andy John Ruden and Amanda Mae Hueneke in the 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.
Ah, forget the typical boring wedding script. We are a family that likes to play games, so let's play a little one right now, nothing like some audience participation.
Please raise your hand if you have been married for 5 or less years.
How many have been married for 20 or less? How many have been married for 40 or less?
Ok, now for the real players, how many have been married for more than 40 years?
Amazing, for those with many years of wedding bliss, what has been your secret of a long lasting marriage?
Mark and Tracey?
Gary and Karen?
Al and Buzz?
Awesome this is all great advice! Many couples say that it was fate that brought them together. Others say it was God, or it was their horoscope, or it was for their money, or the best reason is that one special night...thanks to alcohol. These are all possible, but are only factors that make up what brings true couples together. The truth is, It is somewhat scientific as these true couples are drawn to each other through magnetism. So, going all Sheldon Cooper and Big Bang Theory on you, magnetism is a physical phenomenon produced by the motion of electric charge, resulting in attractive and repulsive forces between objects.
You see, magnetism is a force that acts at a distance and is caused by a magnetic field. The magnetic force strongly attracts an opposite pole of another magnet and repels a like pole. So, as the positive charged electricity attracts the negative charged electricity and brings it together.
This is how it causes true couples to come together. When the one negative charged individual is having a bad day with work, family drama, or just simply needing some sunshine since it won't stop raining around here and now it is to hot, that other positive charged individual is there for them, supporting them through the rough times just by providing kind words of encouragement or compliments saying it will be ok, or just a simple smile and a hug and not having to say nothing at all. And in the spirit of true couples, the roles will reverse. The once positive charged individual, can easily be the negative charged individual the next day ready to be uplifted by the once negative individual now being positive charged repaying back that encouragement and a hug.
This is what makes these long standing marriages as couples having been magnetized in supporting each other, encouraging each other, and most important, loving each other.
This is what we see in Andy and Amanda and why we are all gathered together to witness their marriage. Two individuals, charged with just tons of positive and negative energies!
Andy and Amanda will now share their vows that they have written for each other.
