With this little band of gold,
I slip on your finger.
I promise to love and cherish
you forever and ever,
under the eyes of God.
We are now bound together,
forever to be husband and wife.
No temptation will tear us apart,
nor cut the ties that bind us
to share our lives forever.
Even though death may separate us,
it will never cut the tether,
which will always hold our love.
