The Blessing of
the Rings
The
wedding ring is
the outward and
visible sign of an
inward and
spiritual bond
which unites two
loyal hearts in
endless love. It
is a seal of the
vows [Groom's
name] and [Bride's
name] have made to
one another. Bless
O God these rings,
that [Bride's
name] and [Groom's
name], who give
them, and who wear
them, may ever
abide in thy
peace. Living
together in unity,
love and happiness
for the rest of
their lives
The Exchange of
rings:
[Bride's name]
I give you this
ring as a symbol
of our vows, and
with all that I
am, and all that I
have, I honor you.
In the name of the
Father, and of the
Son, and of the
Holy Spirit, With
this ring, I thee
wed.
[Groom's name], I
give you this ring
as a symbol of our
vows, and with all
that I am, and all
that I have, I
honor you. In the
name of the
Father, and of the
Son, and of the
Holy Spirit, With
this ring, I thee
wed.
Declaration of
Marriage:
In
as much as you
have each pledged
to the other your
lifelong
commitment, love
and devotion, I
now pronounce you
husband and wife,
in the name of the
Father, the Son
and the Holy
Spirit.
Those whom God has
joined together
let no one put
asunder.
[Groom's name],
You may kiss your
bride!
