Friends, we are gathered together here in the presence of this company, to join these
two women in the bonds of matrimony, which is an honorable estate and is not to be entered
into unadvisedly, or lightly, but reverently, discreetly, and advisedly . Into this estate
these two persons present come to be joined. If any person can show just cause why they
may not lawfully be joined together, let him or her now speak or else hereafter hold his
or her peace. I hear no objections (haha), we can proceed.. so Suzanne, I will start
with you. Suzanne, will you have Barbara as your wedded wife to live together in the ordinances
and the state of matrimony? Will you love her, comfort her, honor and keep her, in sickness
and in health and forsaking all others, keep you only unto her so long as you both shall
live? I do. And Barbara, will you have Suzanne as your wedded wife, to live together in the
