Marriage Vow

This woman whom you hold by the hand is to be your wife
She had given you one of the most sacred things under heaven
A woman's life and a woman's love
You may bring her great joy or cause her deep sorrow
It is not what you bring her in the material way that will make true happiness
Riches without love are nothing
Gifts without the giver is bare
The practise of those virtues as husband that you have shown her as a lover will keep her heart wane to your heart
Do you take her to be your lawfully wedded wife
To live together in the bonds of marriage
Do you solemnly promise before these witnesses that
you will love, honour,comfort and keep her
In sickness and in health
In adversity and prosperity and forsaking all others
Keep yourself only for her and be faithful to her as long as you both shall live

A beautiful piece given to us by Reverend Joshua Lim
Thank you Reverend Lim for being our Solemnisation. You made it so meaningful to both of us.
Taken from the video of our solemnisation ceremony.
Thank you Sean for doing up our video so well and capturing all the precious moments.
