Opening & welcome
Alright everyone — welcome! Find a seat, grab a drink if you have one, and let's get this party started. I'm [OFFICIANT], and I have the best job in the room today.
We're here because two of the greatest humans any of us know — [PARTNER1] and [PARTNER2] — have decided to make it official. And honestly? It's about time.
Before we get to the good stuff, let's take a second to appreciate the fact that everyone here managed to show up, find parking, and look this good. That deserves a round of applause.
[Pause for applause.]
Love story
So, how did [PARTNER1] and [PARTNER2] end up here? Well, it started with [how they met].
Now, I've known [PARTNER1/PARTNER2] for [how long], and I can tell you — when they started talking about [PARTNER2/PARTNER1], something was different. The texting got more frequent. The smile got bigger. The "we're just friends" came with slightly less conviction each time.
And here's the thing about these two: they genuinely like each other. Not just love — like. They want to spend time together. They make each other laugh. They're each other's first call. That, if you ask me, is the whole thing.
Declaration of intent
Okay, let's do this. [PARTNER1] and [PARTNER2] — the moment has arrived.
[PARTNER1], do you promise to love [PARTNER2], to choose them on the good days and the really bad ones, to laugh with them, to be honest even when it's uncomfortable, and to split the last piece of [their favourite food] fairly?
"I do."
[PARTNER2], do you promise to love [PARTNER1], to show up for them consistently, to be their safe place, their adventure partner, and their person — for all of it?
"I do."
Excellent. You're both doing great.
Exchange of vows
[PARTNER1], your vows — try not to make everyone cry too hard:
"[PARTNER2], you are my favourite. My favourite person to talk to, to laugh with, to annoy, and to come home to. I promise to always be in your corner, to make you feel loved every single day, and to never let you carry anything heavy alone — metaphorically or literally. You're stuck with me. I love you so much."
[PARTNER2], your turn:
"[PARTNER1], I knew you were the one when [moment]. I promise to be your partner in every sense — to celebrate your wins, sit with you in your losses, and make sure our life together is as fun as it is meaningful. You're my favourite person and my best decision. I love you."
Ring exchange
The rings! Ancient symbol of eternal love — also very shiny, which [PARTNER1] and [PARTNER2] both appreciate.
[PARTNER1], slide that ring on and say:
"With this ring, I thee wed."
[PARTNER2], your turn:
"With this ring, I thee wed."
Perfect. You're basically married already — one more step.
Pronouncement
And that's it! [PARTNER1] and [PARTNER2] — you did it. You said the things, you meant them, and everyone here witnessed it.
It is my absolute joy — and honestly my honour — to pronounce you officially, legally, wonderfully married.
Now KISS! Everyone's been waiting.
