Below is the outline of our Wedding Vows, performed by the Reverend Father Edward Berey:

First of all, we would like to let you who are here today know that Alisandra and Bruce welcome you. Each of you have given something of your lives into their lives. Your friendship, your love, your encouragement, your support of their togetherness is very dear to both of them, and they hold all of you close to their hearts. It is also very fitting that you are here to witness the union of that love in this special ceremony that we call marriage. They also want you to know that they forever appreciate all that you have done and even will do in the years that will come to them as husband and wife.

The central part of love is one of life's greatest joys, and when this love is combined with real friendship, both are infinitely enhanced.

The day to day companionship, that is, the sharing of things and doing them together, and also even in doing things apart, and yet sharing the joy and the experience of that moment is the central part of what keeps two people together, and in love and loyal and faithful to one another throughout their lives.

We are all here then to celebrate the love that B & A have for each other, to give them our support and recognition of their decision to accept each other totally and permanently, for into this state of marriage these two people have come this afternoon.

Because I love you, I Bruce, TAKE YOU Alisandra, TO BE MY WIFE,TO HAVE AND TO HOLD FROM THIS DAY FORWARD, FOR BETTER FOR WORSE, FOR RICHER FOR POORER, IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH, TO LOVE AND TO CHERISH FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES. THIS IS MY SOLEMN VOW.

My spouse, I give you this ring as a symbol of my vow, of all that we have shared and of all that we will share together. With all that I am, and all that I have, I honor you.
