(Groom speaks) We invite you, our friends & family, but more importantly our guests, to witness us as we join our two families into one.
(Bride speaks) We symbolize the joining of our families by the candles we've placed before you.
(Groom speaks) The smallest candles represent my son Eric, & my daughters Amanda, Ashley, & Amelia.
(Bride speaks) The smallest candle represents my daughter Samantha.
(Groom speaks) The medium candle lit by Eric, Amanda, Ashley, & Amelia signifies the life they are in me. They are a part of me, & have shown this by my candle they have lit together.
(Bride speaks) The medium candle lit for Samantha signifies the life she is in me. She is a part of me, & it is shown by my candle my maid of honor has lit in substitution of her.
(Groom speaks) The largest candle's light reflects our family as it is now.
(Bride speaks) We light it together by our single candles. Two candles, with different flames, joined into ourselves.
(Groom speaks) Samantha, I extinguish the life of your candle. (Blow out flame.) You are your mother's flame & are a piece of her. Your mother & I are joined as one. You, being a part of her, are now a part of me. Together, we are a unified family. Samantha, I am not here to replace your dad, but I vow to be the best I can be as a father figure in your life. I vow to love you as my own children.
(Bride speaks) Eric, Amanda, Ashly, & Amelia, I extinguish the lives of your candles. (Blow out flames.) You are your father's flame & are a piece of him. Your father & I are joined as one. You, being a part of him, are now a part of me. Together, we are a unified family. Eric, Amanda, Ashley, & Amelia, I am not here to replace your mom, but I vow to be the best I can as a mother figure in your life. I vow to love you as my own child.
(Groom speaks) So we ask you in return to love us as much as we love you.
(Bride speaks) We come together unified as one. One flame, one life, & one family. |

| m8PqS8 Last a few years has been to Ibiza, so met a person there whose style of presentation is very similar to yours. But, unfortunately, that person is too far from the Internet!.... |
