EXCHANGE WEDDING RINGS

Officiant:

From the earliest times, the circle has been a sign of completeness. The rings that you have chosen to wear have neither beginning nor end, much like your love for one another. As you wear these rings, may they be a constant reminder of the promises you are making today. They mark the beginning of your journey together and are a visible sign of the inward and invisible bond which already unites your hearts in love. May they remind you that you are always surrounded by never-ending love for one another.

Groom, place the ring on Bride’s finger and repeat after me….

I give you this ring.

Wear it with love and joy.

As this ring has no end,

My love is also forever.

Bride, place the ring on Groom’s finger and repeat after me….

I give you this ring.

Wear it with love and joy.

As this ring has no end,

My love is also forever.

Pronouncment

Trent and Missy, the river of life can sometimes create rough waters for a couple. By trusting and loving one another and putting your faith in God, you

will paddle forward together to drift through the calm waters of marriage.

And so, by the power vested in me by the American Marriage Ministries and the State of, I now pronounce you husband and wife.

Trent, you may kiss your bride.
