Ring Vows by The Rev. Dr. Jack E. Skiles




_______ and _______, you have brought rings to exchange.
These rings are gifts to each other to remind you always,
And those they gaze upon their beauty,
That you have pledged your love and commitment
In marriage to each other.
And when you have been together for a long, long time,
You will look at these rings,
And you will feel the indentation they have made on your fingers,
And you will know that these rings contain all the memories
Of what your lives and your relationship have been.
May the always serve to remind you of how great your love is for one another.


Pueblo Blessing



I add my breath to your breath
That our days may be long on the Earth,
That the days of our people may be long,
That we shall be as one person,
That we may finish our road together.

Vows by Rabbi Rami M.Shapiro




I choose you this day
To love and confide in,
To hold on to and reach out from.
I choose you this day
To believe in and to share with,
To learn from and grow with.
I choose you this day
To give you my heart.

--Rabbi Rami Shapiro
