I take you, [Name], to be my wife/husband. I promise before God
and these witnesses to be your faithful husband/wife, to share
with you I plenty and in want, in joy and in sorrow, in sickness
and in health, to forgive and strengthen you, and to join with you
so that together we may serve God and others as long as we both
shall live.
[Name], I take you to be my wife/husband from this time onward,
to join with you and to share all that is to come, to give and to
receive, to speak and to listen, to inspire and to respond, and in
all circumstances of our life together to be loyal to you with my
whole life and with my being until death parts us.
Hymn of Praise
“I will sing the story of your love,” Canticle 16
Prayer of the Day
Eternal God, our creator and redeemer, as you gladdened the
wedding at Cana in Galilee by the presence of your Son, so bring
your joy to this wedding by his presence now. Look in favor upon
[Name] and [Name], and grant that they, rejoicing in all your gifts,
may at length celebrate the marriage feast which has no end with
Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy
Spirit, one God, now and forever.
