This is the day we have waited
for; the moment when we are joined as
husband and wife and become one flesh before God

life, we now submit them and ourselves to each
other, promising to listen
and value the opinions we each bring into this
union. We vow before God
to remain faithful to each other and keep
ourselves from all others, to
love and cherish each other, to never take each
other for granted. We vow
to live our lives before God and each other in
transparency, remaining
open to one another and to God.
