Brief Contemporary Ceremony

________ do you take this woman, whose right hand you now hold, to be your wedded wife, and do you promise before God and these witnesses that you will be to her a true and devoted husband, true to her in sickness and in health, in joy and in sorrow, in prosperity and in adversity, and that forsaking all others you will keep yourself to her, and her only. until God shall separate you by death? (I do)

  • Short

    I'd hate to be putting my family and friends to sleep with such a long ceremony & with 2 of My bridesmaids being very pregnant & I having an outdoor wedding I prefer to keep the vows as short and meaningful as possible for the whole crowd

  • Is It Over Yet

    I am a wedding Officiant and I just love these comments. It is true as if the vows are to long I start getting confused and feel like I am talking in circles. It is then that the couple begin looking at me like "Is It Over Yet"!
