Everyone worships silently until the couple feels it’s time to say their vows. They rise, hold hands, and each declare:
The Wrangler Guide will lead you, one phrase at a time:
“In the presence of God and before these our families and friends,
I take thee (bride’s/groom’s name) to be my wife/husband,
promising with Divine assistance to be unto thee
a loving and faithful husband/wife
so long as we both shall live.”
Then they sign the marriage certificate and sit down.
Everyone returns to more silent worship, during which congregants and guests may stand to say a few words or voice support for the couple (think: heartfelt toasts).
The meeting usually ends with a handshake from a committee member.
All those present will also sign the certificate as witnesses.
