Welcome family, friends, and loved ones. We are gathered here today to celebrate the union of Thera Hope Marie Thurmond and Kayle Marie Gomez. We are all here to support this commitment of love and to share the joy of Thera and Kayla as they choose to spend the rest of their lives together.

Thera and Kayla, your marriage will be a lifelong promise to love, respect, trust, and honor each other through the good, the bad and the unexpected. This union represents your commitment to support one another as individual beings but share your joys, sorrows, and dreams as one. A strong bond works in unison not only to nurture the best parts of your personalities, but to understand each others differences and flaws. You are committing to lean how to grow alongside one another while remembering to keep an open mind throughout your journey.

Today you gain an equal partner that will be you confidant, your defender and you motivator through all of your aspirations and goals. You will celebrate each accomplishment, provide peace through every setback and most importantly give love in life's both big and little moments.
