Weddings In Key West

We Are so Assembled Here in the Presence of God and These Witnesses
To Celebrate the Joining of This Man and Woman in the Unity of Marriage.
There Are No Obligations on Earth More Sweet or Tender
Then Those You Are about to Assume.
There Are No Vows More Solemn Than Those You Are about to Make. 
There Is No Human Institution More Sacred
Than That of the Home You Are about to Form.
It Should Be Entered into Reverently, Thoughtfully,
And with Full Understanding of Its Sacred Nature.
A Marriage to Be Complete Must First Be Spiritual.

Who Gives This Woman to Be Wed?
Today Your Separate Lives with Their Individual Memories,
Desires, and Hopes Merge into One.
You Will Bring to This New Life Each for the Sake of the Other,
The Best That You Have in You Seeking to Express Your Life Together,
Each at the Highest Level of Your Own Understanding?

__________, Will You Take This Woman, Whose Hands You Hold,
Choosing Her Alone to Be You're Wedded Wife?
Will You Live with Her and the State of True Matrimony?
Will You Love Her, Comfort Her, Honor Her at All Times
And Be Faithful to Her?

__________, will you take this man, whose hand you hold,
Choosing him alone to be you're wedded husband?
Will you live with him in the state of True matrimony?
Will you love him comfort him, honor him at all times,
And be faithful to him?

A Marriage Ceremony Represents One of Life's Greatest Commitments.
But It Is Also a Declaration of Love.
I Wish to Read to You What Paul Wrote of Love in a Letter to the Corinthians.
I Believe It Is a True Model of Love
And One I Hope You Pursue in Your Marriage.

Love Is Patient and Kind, Never Jealous or Envious,
Never Boastful or Proud.
Love Is Never Haughty, Selfish or Rude.
Love Does Not Demand Its Own Way.
Love Is Not Irritable or Touchy.
Love Does Not Hold Grudges and Will Hardly Notice
When Others Do It Wrong.
Love Is Never Glad about Injustice,
But Rejoices Whenever Truth Wins out.
If You Love Someone, You'll Be Loyal to Them
No Matter What the Cost.
You Will Always Believe in Them,
Always Expect the Best in Them,
And Will Always Stand Your Ground in Defending Them.

Bless O God, These Rings, and the One Who Gives It
And the One Who Receives It ,

in Happiness and with Good Purpose to Do Thy Will. Amen
