If anyone can show just cause why this man and this woman may not lawfully be joined together, let them speak now or hereafter remain silent. Bride and Groom, I require and charge you both that if either of you know any reason why you may not lawfully be joined together in matrimony, you do now confess. If any persons are joined together otherwise than as prescribed by law, their marriage is not lawful. Exchange of Vows Groom, will you take this woman to be your wedded wife, to live together in the estate of matrimony? Will you love, honor and keep her; in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, keep yourself only unto her, as long as you both shall live?
