The church choir will sing a song for the new couple.
Now is the time for the newlyweds to swear an oath before God to stay together for life. Invite newcomers to the stage.
Vow
Now let us make a marriage vow together in front of God. I want to ask the same question to both of them separately. This is a long question. Please answer it after listening:
Bridegroom, are you willing to marry the bride and marry her according to the teachings of the Bible? Live together, become one with her in the presence of God, love her, comfort her, respect her, and protect her as you love yourself. Whether she is sick or healthy, rich or poor, remain faithful to her until she leaves this world?
Bride, are you willing to marry the groom and live with him according to the teachings of the Bible and be with him before God? Become one, love him, comfort him, respect him, and protect him as you love yourself. Whether he is sick or healthy, rich or poor, remain loyal to him until he leaves this world?
Exchange rings
Now we need to exchange rings as a token of marriage.
The ring is gold, which means that you want to give your most precious love to each other like the most precious gift.
Gold will never rust or fade, which means your love will last forever. It is round, representing no reservations, beginning and end. Never break.
Groom, please follow me sentence by sentence:
This is my wedding token to you. I want to marry you, love you, and protect you. No matter whether you are rich or poor, whether the environment is good or bad, whether you are sick or healthy, I will always be your faithful husband.
Bride, please follow me sentence by sentence:
This is my wedding token to you. I want to marry you, love you, and protect you. No matter rich or poor, no matter the environment is good or bad, no matter whether you are sick or healthy, I will be your faithful wife.
Please both of you follow me and say:
Wherever you go, I will go too. Where you stay, I will stay there. Your kingdom will be my kingdom, and your God will be my God. ?
According to the authority given to us by God’s Bible, I declare you husband and wife. What God has joined together, let no man put asunder.
