There is a welcome prayer at the start of the wedding read from the minister which is ‘we are gathered here today in the presence of god, as friends and family to witness -full name- to ask God to bless them’. The wedding is attended by family and friends to mark the special event.
Traditionally in a Christian wedding a white dress and a suite is worn by the couple because its been done for a long time and its purity is easy and simple. The bride normally wears the white clothing dress as you might see in most Christian weddings. The bride is given away by her farther, in the matter if a farther is not present her uncle or other members of her family can perform this task.
The groom traditionally wears a black suit as all men wears suits. The groom will be accompanied by a pre-selected best man who will oversee the wedding on the day, he will be responsible for the rings and may prepare a speech regarding his best friend or in this case the groom.
The vows are one of the most important things in a wedding. It is traditional because you have to legally say ‘I do’ like everyone else is weddings and you are expressing in words why you love them and is an agreements by the bride and groom to become husband and wife
‘for richer or poorer,
sickness and in health
till death do us apart’.
I have said these vows because it is a legal agreement and is used all around the world by Christians.
It is also a resemblance of decoration or mutual agreement reached by the couple on the wedding day. It is also conducted by a tradition priest in a church.
There are traditionally Rings given from groom to bride and bride to groom. Rings are significance because it is a symbol of unity and is usually used in Christians weddings.
A register may be in Christians weddings because to legally declare the couple being married and is put into a legal document, The witnesses are normally two people hearing the vows being made, Plus they have to sign the register to certify their presence and a impediment may b ne married or a close relative.
Matthew 19:9
"I say to you, whoever divorces his wife (unless the marriage is unlawful) and marries another commits adultery.". I have picked this vow out because I want to express what Mathews opinion was on marriage and divorce. You might want a bible reading for a wedding because it is always good to listen to what other people’s opinion is so that the couple wont make any mistakes.
