Ring Vows

Name 1 and Name 2 have chosen rings as outward symbols of the commitment they make today. From 
earliest times, the ring has been a symbol of wedded love. An unbroken and never-ending circle 
symbolizes a commitment to love that is also never ending. We ask that God bless these rings and this 
union of souls.

Name 1, take the ring that you have selected, place it on Name 2's finger and say to her these words:
This ring is a circle / A circle has no end / So it symbolizes / my never-ending love for you / From 
this day forward / I will love you / I will cherish you / I will be true to you /no matter what comes 
into our lives /if we are rich or poor /if there is sickness or health /my heart belongs only to you.

Name 1, do you take Name 2, to be your wedded wife and be faithful only to her for so long as you 
both shall live?
“I DO”

Name 2, take the ring that you have selected, place it on Name 1's finger and say to him these words:
This ring is a circle / A circle has no end / So it symbolizes / my never-ending love for you / From this day forward / I will love you / I will cherish you / I will be true to you /no matter what comes 
into our lives /if we are rich or poor /if there is sickness or health /my heart belongs only to you.

Name 2, do you take Name 1 to be your wedded husband and be faithful only to him for so long as you 
both shall live?
“I DO”
