Introduction to Ceremony
Of all the relationships known among people, the most precious and perfect of all is that of husband and wife.
It is therefore fitting that we should be gathered here in the sight of God to witness the vows and the commitment these two make to each other and to the Lord.
Since we have gathered here today to watch to families become one, were going to pray for God to bless Kyle and Jessalyn as they join their lives together today.
WHO GIVES THIS WOMAN TO BE MARRIED TO THIS MAN?
(Let’s Pray)
Heavenly Father, thank you for this day that we can gather together to witness two people who truly appreciate one another and love one another come together as one in marriage.
Father I pray that you will be honored through this ceremony and will bless them for the rest of their lives as they seek to please you and love one another.
(The congregation may be seated)
A wise man once said:
Proverbs 30:
We are gathered here today to witness the exchanging of vows between Kyle Thomas Marks and Jessalyn Covell.
Marriage is an institution created by God Himself.
No one except God could have thought of anything as wonderful as marriage.
It was God Himself who placed that first man and woman together in the garden to love one another, complete one another, and to provide that unique companionship found in the marriage union.
Kyle God has given you a gift in Jessalyn someone to care for you and love you and take care of you, a friend, a companion and a team mate.
Jessalyn God has given you a gift someone who will protect you care for you and seek to make your life filled with joy and satisfaction.
Kyle, will you have this woman to be your wife, to live together in the holy covenant of marriage?
Will you love her, comfort her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, be faithful to her so long as you both shall live?
(Groom Answers)
Jessalyn, will you have this man to be your husband, to live together in the holy covenant of marriage?
will you love him, comfort him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health, and, forsaking all others, will you be faithful to him so long as you both shall live?
(Bride answers)
Kyle
On this special day as we celebrate both of you, I wanted to give some advice on preserving a marriage that will last as long as you both shall live.
Never Go to Bed Angry.
Even though this is one of the happiest days of your life, there will come those times when you are stressed, frustrated and worn out.
You will both have those days when everything seems to go wrong and you really upset each other.
Don’t go to bed angry.
Don’t allow your frustration to build to where you say some harsh words you don’t really mean.
Talk through it, resolve it, and then move on, out it in the rear view mirror.
You know there’s a reason why the rear view mirrors on a car are much smaller than the windshield.
We are not meant to look back but to always keep our eyes forward.
Don’t go to bed angry
2. Keep a sense of humor
Sometimes things happen that aren’t your fault; they just happen.
Yet you have to deal with them.
Keep your sense of humor
I think sometimes we take ourselves too seriously.
Keep a sense of humor.
3. Communicate, Communicate, Communicate
I know you both do that really well right now, but it gets harder as time goes on to share what you’re thinking, what you’re feeling, and whats going on in your heart!
You can’t read each others mind, so be determined to make the extra effort to talk with each other.
And as you do, give each other the gift of listening.
Purposefully determine to continue to build your relationship.
Just because you are getting married doesn’t mean that you have built the best relationship you will ever have.
No, the truth is you are just getting started!
Be intentional about improving your relationship every single day, so that you love each other more deeply when you are at the end of your life than you do today.
The apostle Paul said it this way
Romans 12:10
That is another way of saying that I will put you first!
If each of you puts the other first, just imagine the happiness you will experience.
Finally make sure that as a couple you invite the Lord Jesus Christ to be a part of your lives, and the foundation of the home you are going to build.
In other words if you will allow God to take up residence in your home, He will make your paths straight.
He will bless you.
Someone said that marriage is a journey- always changing.
And with the changes that come different joys, different challenges, and different heartaches.
But if you will follow this advice your joys will be richer.
your challenges will be more manageable.
And your heartaches won’t hurt as much because you will be walking this journey together.
In God’s love letter to humanity, God tells us the duties and responsibilities of each marriage partner whereby they might have the blessing of God on their home.
Kyle to you God gives a wonderful and difficult assignment:
Ephesians 5:
Just like Jesus Christ laid down his life for we as believers, so you also are called to lay down your life, and sacrifice for the spiritual, physical and emotional needs of your wife.
Jessalyn God says to you:
God calls men to love their wives and He calls women to respect their husbands.
that is because we are made with different needs.
God calls you to allow Kyle to lead you so long as he is being lead by the Lord.
As your families are put together today in the legal and Christian manner, I pray that it is just the beginning of God taking two hearts and making them into one heart, which ought never to be broken, except by death.
Now will you face one another and join right hands as you exchange your wedding vows:
DECLARATION OF CONSENT:
Kyle, will you have this woman to be your wife, to live together in the holy covenant of marriage?
Will you love her, comfort her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, be faithful to her so long as you both shall live?
(Groom Answers)
Jessalyn, will you have this man to be your husband, to live together in the holy covenant of marriage?
will you love him, comfort him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health, and, forsaking all others, will you be faithful to him so long as you both shall live?
(Bride answers)
Now each of you brings a ring as a sign and seal of your love for each other.
(The maid of honor should place the rings in the pastors hand, I will hold out the rings to the groom)
Kyle please take your ring and place it on the third finger of Jessalyns left hand, hold it there and look deep into her eyes and repeat these words after me.
“May this ring
be a reminder
to you and to me
of the love a devotion
I now pledge
this day to you”
Now Jessalyn please take your ring and place it on Kyles left hand.
Hold it there and look him in the eyes and repeat these words after me:
“May this ring
be a reminder
to you and to me
of the love and devotion
I now pledge
this day to you.”
I pray that these rings mark the purity, value, and the constant love that I know you have in your hearts for one another.
Let them be now and for the rest of your lives a two fold seal of the vows you have taken here before God and your family and friends.
