Wedding Vows

I ask you to be my partner, my friend and my wife/husband.

I announce and declare my deepest friendship and love for you.

Not only when your moments are high,

But also when they are low.

Not only when you remember clearly who you are,

But also when you forget.

Not only when you are acting with love,

But also when you are not.

It is my intention to be with you forever,

That together we might share

all that is good within us

with each other

and all those whose lives we touch.

Together, to become more

than we could ever have been separately.

            I give you this ring

            that all may see and know

            of my love for you.
