Their journeys have brought them to this place filled with happiness, love and the promise of a beautiful future.
•Reading•
Love has no other desire but to fill the soul with peace. Love has no other desire than to hold a scared hand and to sooth a pained heart. Love has no other desire than to bring joy and fulfillment to two souls who have searched and found the perfect "one" to spend their life with.

Gary, have you come here today with the intention to be legally joined in marriage to Denna Carlisle, and do you pledge to choose respect, kindness, and compassion toward one another, to listen deeply to one other, and to speak to one another truthfully, today and always? Yes/I do.
