Minister: We are gathered here today in the sight of God， and in the face of this company， to join together (Groom’s Name) and (Bride’s Name) in holy matrimony; which is an honorable estate， instituted of God， since the first man and the first woman walked on the earth。 Therefore; it is not to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly， but reverently and soberly。
Into this holy estate these two persons present come now to be joined。
If any one can show just cause why they may not be lawfully joined together， let them speak now or forever hold their peace。
Who gives this woman to be married to this man?
Father: My wife and I do。
(Then the bride is given away)
Minister: I require and charge you both that if either of you know any impediment why you may not be lawfully joined together in matrimony， you confess it now。 Be assured that if any persons are joined together otherwise than as God’s word allows， their marriage is not lawful。
(Minister: addressing the groom)
(Groom’s Name)， do you take (Bride’s Name) for your lawful wedded wife， to live together after God’s ordinance， in the holy estate of matrimony? Will you love， honor， comfort， and cherish her from this day forward， forsaking all others， keeping only unto her for as long as you both shall live?
Groom: I do。
(Minster: addressing the bride):
(Bride’s Name)， do you take (Groom’s Name) for your lawful wedded husband， to live together after God’s ordinance， in the holy estate of matrimony? Will you love， honor， comfort， and cherish him from this day forward， forsaking all others， keeping only unto him for as long as you both shall live?
Bride: I do。
(At this point the couple may improvise by playing a favorite song， reading a scripture， etc。 suggested scriptures might be genesis 2:21-25， mark 10:6-8 and 1 cor 13:4-7)
Reader 1: A reading from the book of Genesis， chapter 2， versus 21 through 25:
So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping， he took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the place with flesh。 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man， and he brought her to the man。 The man said， “this is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ’woman， ’ for she was taken out of man。“ for this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife， and they will become one flesh。 The man and his wife were both naked， and they felt no shame。
Reader 2: A reading from the gospel of Mark， chapter 10， versus 6 through 8:
But at the beginning of creation God made them male and female。 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife， and the two will become one flesh。 So they are no longer two， but one。
Reader 3: A reading from the Apostle Paul， the first letter to the Corinthians， chapter 13， verses 4 through 7:
Love is patient， love is kind。 It does not envy， it does not boast， it is not proud。 It is not rude， it is not self-seeking， it is not easily angered， it keeps no record of wrongs。 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth。 It alwaysprotects， always trusts， always hopes， always perseveres。
