Cute Wedding Ceremony Script

OFFICIANT (to congregation):

Thank you all for attending today as we join the hands of _________ and _________ in an imperfectly perfect union. The bride and groom have found love at last. They will never have to go on a first date again. Today they seal that deal as they enter into the most coveted bond of husband and wife.

OFFICIANT (to congregation):

There is nothing greater in this world than finding the people with whom we feel safe, secure, and most ourselves. We search to find the person most accepting of our flaws; even the ones we try not to show until at least the 5th date. We search to find the person most encouraging of our dreams; even those crazy, impulsive ones that never get off the ground. But most of all, we search to find the person who loves us so unconditionally we simply can’t do anything but believe it.

_________ and _________ believe in their love today as do all of us who have gathered to witness their marriage. As they go forth into the next great chapter of life, they do so with confidence knowing that their search has come to a fruitful end.

To help us get this ceremony started, I’d like to start with a reading selected by the couple.

OFFICIANT (to congregation):

He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.

OFFICIANT (to congregation):

As _________ and _________ step into marriage, we ask that their families and friends continue to show their support just as you have done so by being here today. It is true, marriage is not always an easy path - but it is the most rewarding. The support of a loving community can make all the difference. So, when that first big fight comes, please pick up the phone. Offer a little guidance, and maybe some wine.

We know that _________ and _________ have it within them to reap every reward this marriage will bring them. Do you agree to support them on this awesome journey?

OFFICIANT (to congregation):

As _________ and _________ exchange their vows today, they do so from a place of deep love and commitment. Although today has been lighthearted by nature, there is nothing _________ and _________ take more seriously than the opportunity to demonstrate their faith in the future for all of you to hear.

Let’s begin.

OFFICIANT (to _________):

Please repeat after me.

I, _________ take you, _________ to be my husband/wife/partner. In the good times and bad, there is no one I’d rather have by my side. You have made my future seem like more than just a dream. I will be your sidekick in all adventures. I promise to never stop playing with you. I will be there to make you laugh when you really want to cry. I will love you as my best friend, lover, and partner in crime. I’m in it for life.

OFFICIANT (to couple):

The ring is symbolic of a lasting commitment. It does not break. It may bend, however, but then you’d want to see your jeweler. As you place the ring on your partner’s finger, please think about the unwavering faith in your relationship that has brought to this point today.

OFFICIANT (to congregation):

Well there’s no turning back now! By the power vested in me by the Universal Life Church, I now pronounce you spiritually and legally united. You may kiss!
