There are few greater joys in life than finding someone who we truly
“click” with. On that thought I will now read a quote about true love by
author Richard Bach: “A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our
keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks,
our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we
are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we’re pretending to
be. Each reveals the best part of the other. No matter what else goes
wrong around us, with that one person we’re safe in our own paradise. Our
soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of
direction. When we’re two balloons, and together our direction is up,
chances are we’ve found the right person. Our soulmate is the one who
makes life some to life.”
Now over the course of Bradley and Stefani’s relationship, they have
developed a strong bond based on shared values such as music and
family, and mutual respect. With a solid foundation for which can only
grow, they have made the decision to take on marriage and spend the rest
of their lives together.
Now lets celebrate the joy and love displayed here today. And may
we cherish these memories as Stafani and Bradley, get set to begin their
new life together.
Next I would like to ask for whom will be giving this bride away (then
brides father says he will and say his I love you’s then go and sit back
down)
You all are about to witness the union of Stefani and Bradley in
matrimony, such a great commitment that they both have chosen to
undertake will all the sincerity it holds.
While marriage is quite a sacred and serious tradition, it also causes
great joy. The married life is full of surprises, adventures, and memory-
making produced by the outstanding power of love. When we are done
today, Bradley and Stefani will begin a new long life of partnership.
Stefani, you may start. (Stafani which is Lady GaGa will say the vows
that she has prepared to Bradley). Bradley, it is now time for your promise.
(then Bradley Cooper will say his own vows toward Lady GaGa).
Now I will ask for Stefani and Bradley to hold each other's hands. In
front of the eyes of your family and friends, Stefani, do you take Bradley to
be your lawfully wedded husband? And do you promise to love and
support him unconditionally, as long as you both shall live? (then Stafani
will say I do and I will then proceed).
It is now time to exchange the rings. The circle in each ring is a
symbol of your love external commitment to each other. May these rings
always remind you of the vows that you both have made to each other in
front of your many family and friends. (I will then turn to Bradley).
Now Bradley. Please repeat after me as you place the ring on the
hand of your true love. I Bradley Cooper, give you Stefani this ring to show
my love and vows we have made today to each other. With this ring I
promise to love you. (then I will turn to Stefani indicating that it is now her
turn)
I Stefani, give you Bradley, this ring to show my love and vows we
have made today to each other. And with this ring I promise to love you.
(then I will face the friends and family there)
Bradley you may now kiss your bride. (then the couple will kiss and
turn to face their family and friends)
(then the couple will exit followed by all the bridesmaids and
groomsmen)
