Our Wedding Story
The Vows
As I walked slowly down the Isle, I could see Clayton all handsome looking in his nice tux. Everyone was in aww at how beautiful I looked, we stopped at the bottom of the altar stairs. And Laura started the Ceremony..
'We are gathered together this day to celebrate
and bless the joining together of
Clayton and Natalie in the sacrament of Marriage.'
'Who brings this woman to be given to this man?'
My father responded with 'I do' then he turned and lifted my veil, he kissed my cheek with a gentle kiss and then hands my arm to Clayton. We walked up to the altar and stopped by our Unity Candles, we turned and faced each other and joined hands.
Laura asks Clayton the following..
'Clayton do you take Natalie,
to be your wife and equal,
to live together openly and with honesty,
Will you love her, comfort her,
honor and keep her,
in sickness and in health,
and forsaking all others,
do you promise to be faithful to her
as long as you both shall live.'
Clayton smiles at me then says 'I do'
Laura then turned to ask me the following..
'Natalie do you take Clayton,
to be your husband and equal,
to live together openly and with honesty,
Will you love him, comfort him,
honor and keep him,
in sickness and in health,
and forsaking all others,
do you promise to be faithful to him
as long as you both shall live.'
I smiled back at Clayton and said 'I do'
