Welcome friends and family.

We are gathered together here to join Stephanie and Linda in the spiritual union of marriage. It is my honor and privilege to perform this ceremony for these beautiful woman.

Stephanie and Linda have found true love and partnership with each other. Where one is weak, the other is strong. Their love and laughter lights up their home. Well that and their 5 dogs, 5 cats and 100 fish...

Stephanie and Linda have chosen to write their own vows and will now share them with each other.

*(Vows)*

Do you Stephanie take this woman Linda to be your lawfully wedded partner, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and woe, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself only to her for as long as you both shall live?

*(Wait for Confirmation)*

Do you Linda take this woman Stephanie to be your lawfully wedded partner, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, in good times and woe, for richer or poorer, keeping yourself only to her for as long as you both shall live?

The wedding ring is an emblem of love through time, a symbol of devotion and an agreement between two parties to love and cherish one another for the rest of their days.

A circle has no beginning or end and is therefore a symbol of infinity. It is endless, eternal, just the way love should be.

Stephanie and Linda will now exchange rings as a symbol of their love and commitment.

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

Now, kiss your wife!
