Same Gender Wedding Ceremony
Word of welcome
My label is (Officiant), and I have the privilege of carrying out this ceremony today. On behalf of (Partner 1) and (Partner 2), welcome and thank you for being here.
They are thrilled that you are here today to divide in their bliss during this superb moment in their lives.
By your presence, you celebrate with them the passion they have discovered in each other and you aid their decision to commit themselves to one another for the rest of their lives.
The greatest happiness of being is the conviction that we are loved, loved for ourselves. If there is anything enhanced than being loved, it is loving.

This is the union of two individuals in heart, body, thought, and spirit, Therefore, marriage is not to be entered into lightly, but reverently, honestly, and deliberately. And it is into this union that (Partner 1) and (Partner 2) come now to be joined.
