Option 3

Since _groomname_ and _bridename_ have vowed to be loyal and loving toward each other, formalising in our presence the existence of the bond between them, we bear witness to the ceremony they have performed…the ceremony that has made them husband and wife.

May these two people, now married, keep the promises which they have made. May they be a blessing and comfort to each other,  sharers if each other’s joys, consolers in each other’s sorrows, helpers to each other in all the problems they may have to face.

May they encourage each other in whatever they set out to achieve.

May they trust each other, trust life and not be afraid.

Yet may they not only accept and give affection between themselves, but also together have affection and consideration for others.

 With that in mind, it is with a great deal of pleasure I present _groomname_ and _bridename_ with their Certificate of Marriage.
