Contemporary Wedding Ceremony 1:

PROCESSIONAL:

Who gives this woman to be married to this man?

(Optional) Introduction: We are here today, to witness and participate in a ceremony celebrating the public acknowledgment of a love which ________________________________ have for each other. Knowing that by our presence here, with them, we are saying that they are loved by many . This celebration is for the union of these two hearts and minds. It is a celebration of the joining of two souls already attuned to each other. When such a true bond already exists between a man and a woman, it is fitting that an outer acknowledgment be made. We are here to bear witness to their entry into the covenant relationship of husband and wife, of these beloved friends, who are already one in spirit. This day you take a giant step of courage and commitment to love, understand and grow. When a commitment this strong is made by two people, it reaches out and touches all of us around you. Like a stone dropped in a still pond, the ripples of your love, from this celebration extend and change the world we live in. You are now taking into your care and keeping the happiness of the one person in the entire world whom you love most. You are adding to your life not only the affection of each other, but also the love and companionship for someone with whom you can share in an intimate and trusting way, all the hopes, joys, and dreams of life. Real love, is laying down your life for each other. It is the expression of your thoughts, feelings and desires as one. Love makes burdens lighter because you divide them. It makes joys more intense because you share them. It makes you stronger, so you can be involved with life in ways you dare not risk alone. We honor and rejoice with you now as we witness your vows to love each other and to come together as one into the blessed estate of marriage.

I give you all my trust and all my tomorrows. I promise I will always cherish you and I promise my love for you is forever.

The Wedding Ring Exchange: The wedding rings (the unbroken circle) are symbols of eternity. The gold is symbolic of that which is pure and the diamonds are symbolic of what is permanent and incorruptible.

Closing Remarks: As you begin your marriage, here are a few words to encourage: Remember being a Bride and Groom is for a day; but being a husband & wife is a lifetime commitment. Let your love be stronger than your anger. Learn the wisdom of compromise, for it is better to bend than to break. Believe the best of your beloved rather than the worst. Confide in your partner and ask for help when you need it. Remember that true friendship is the basis for any lasting Relationship. Give your spouse the same courtesies and kindness you bestow On your friends. Don’t forget to say “I love you” every day. May life grant you patience, tolerance and understanding.

RECESSIONAL PROVIDED BY: Larry Adler-Bands Of Gold Wedding Ceremonies

Testimonial

Reverend Adler made our wedding ceremony so memorable. He was charming, personable and witty and made himself always available to discuss any important details regarding the ceremony from the very first telephone conversation up until our special day. He had great ideas on how to make our ceremony unique and was able to incorporate all of the special things we wanted at our ceremony. He made the ceremony fun and delightful for all. All of guests said that our ceremony was the best that they had ever been to. Our favorite memory was the lighting of the unity candle with our mothers by our sides, an idea presented to us by Reverend Adler. This fond memory of our mothers giving us away to start our new lives as husband and wife we know will forever be with us and we have Reverend Adler to thank for that.

Dear Larry,
Thank you so much for officiating our wedding. We are so glad that our reverend never returned our calls or emails and you were there to help us out at the last minute. You made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. The ceremony that you put together for us was more than we could have asked for. It was absolutely perfect. I can not thank you enough for all that you did for us. Our family has all commented on what a beautiful ceremony it was.
I was nervous being up in front of everyone but you helped calm the nerves when we were up there. Thank you again for making our ceremony so beautiful and perfect.

Thank you!

Hi Larry,
Andrew and I wanted to let you know how much we appreciated everything you did for us regarding our wedding. From the day we emailed you to the day we finally got married, you couldn't have been more helpful.
As we are from the UK we thought getting married in NY may have been tricky, it was so easy! You let us know all the things we needed to do and you made as feel confident in everything.
When we came out to NY 5 months before the wedding, you met up with us and gave us a few suggestions for the ceremony, we couldn't have been happier with the suggestions.
On the day you kept Andrew calm (almost) and made me feel special - it really was a fantastic ceremony, one I will remember forever!
We just wanted to say a big THANK YOU and if we know of anyone else who is thinking of jetting over the NY to get married we will definitely pass your details on

Thank you so much

Hi Larry,
We truly enjoyed our ceremony you put together for us.
All our Family & Friends that attended our wedding really enjoyed the Sand Ceremony. A lot of people never saw that before and it really meant a lot to Kieran & I to have the children included in the ceremony. To us when the sand all became one, we merged our families and never can be separated again. Thank you for your patience with the extreme weather conditions but the sun was chasing us and here are some beautiful pictures for you to share on your website.

Hope all is well and Take care.

Dear Larry,
I wanted to say thank you for a wonderful ceremony we will never forget. Our families couldn't say enough about what a great ceremony you performed. Everyone thought we knew you or you were a friend of the family due to your great personality and ability to be so personable. No one believed I found you on the internet. Thank you again. We are both very happy to finally be married and you made our day perfect. The ceremony was the most important thing to me. Most people put all their effort into the crazy reception, but in my opinion that’s not what a wedding is about. I never really cared about what went on after the ceremony. The ceremony is the wedding, that’s where two people commit to one another making that the most important and special event. I couldn't have wished for a more perfect ceremony, THANK YOU!

Sincerely,

Ryan and Jessica
