A wedding ceremony is a collection of touching moments. Getting ready for the bride, blessing the parents, and, of course, the speech for registering the marriage. The bride and groom listen very carefully to every word and delve into their meaning. This speech should contain such expressions that the young people will realize the greatness and seriousness of the marriage process. The words depend on the style, venue and personal characteristics of the newlyweds. A speech will not be needed only when registering a marriage without a ceremony.
Speech by a registry office employee in a classic version
If you are planning a classic celebration, the team of the Svadebka.ws portal offers you beautiful, touching words when registering your marriage at the registry office.
Dear newlyweds, parents and guests. Today there will be a solemn union of marriage between (name of the groom) and (name of the bride). Love is a gift, a treasure that every person seeks every day, spending time and effort, but without losing hope. And then one day you found your treasure. Now the main thing is to preserve and protect, respect and complement each other throughout your life. Are you ready for this? Is your decision balanced and informed? Are your intentions and feelings sincere?
The groom answers.
The bride answers.
Your answers give me the right to register your marriage. Please come and sign your newlywed union.
Exchange rings as a sign of true and strong love. May they keep for many years the warmth and awe that lie in your hearts today.
By the authority given to me by you and all present, I pronounce you husband and wife. Now the groom can kiss the bride deeply.
From now on, you can proudly call each other husband and wife. Appreciate every day spent together, don’t lie, don’t hurt each other. Strengthen your family every day, and let a gentle child’s voice begin to sound in it soon.
Such a speech from a registry office employee when registering a marriage will touch everyone present and leave the newlyweds with a “taste” of something magical and elusive for a long time.
Wedding ceremony - words.
Today I wrote a fragment of the wedding script - the wedding ceremony, namely, her words.
I’m shocked, but it just happened – I had to write, so I wrote.
But I wrote it in my own style, mixing solemnity and humor, because just the sweet, cloying words make me sick. And they sound false to me - I don’t believe that anyone actually listens to serious wedding speeches. And even if he listens, he hardly hears or perceives.
If you still perceive, then this is definitely not the place for you. At least not now. Don't be offended - there's no arguing about tastes. Even if these are the tastes of a cynic, which I am slowly becoming when it comes to weddings)))
Who and where will it be useful?
my wedding ceremony words:
- to the wedding host (toastmaster) outside the official registry office (as it turned out, sometimes at an evening in a restaurant they organize a second ceremony, unofficial, but solemn and in full accordance with the scheme)
- the leader of the ceremony within the walls of the official registry office - if his employees do not consider my words sedition)))
- on any wedding anniversary, when you jokingly want to arrange for the spouses to remarry.
If you have other options, please share - in the comments under the article or in an email through my contacts.
If you used my wedding ceremony text somewhere at your place, then write and tell me how it went.
And we get down to business. I entered the names as an example.
Marriage ceremony - words
(The presenter’s solemn intonations alternate with pragmatic ones all the time)
Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen!
The solemn moment of the wedding ceremony of Alexander and Elena has arrived!
(Fanfares sound)
Heroes of the occasion, please take the stage! Friends, welcome with applause - our respectable groom Alexander and his beautiful bride Elena!
(The young people took the stage)
Why do you think they are so beautiful and shiny? It’s simple - because love shines inside them, and it’s impossible to hide it even with excitement.
Do you know how they met? Oh, it was an absolutely incredible (the most ordinary, it would seem) meeting X months (years) ago. They met... where, under what circumstances... And did they think then that X months (years) would pass and they would stand here, already as the bride and groom? Friends, what do you think – did they think about this or not? What? And now we’ll ask them themselves.
- Alexander, put your hand on your heart (or on your chest, preferably yours) and answer us, as if in confession - did you know when you first met Elena that you would take her as your wife?
Wedding in a nautical style
On-site marriage registration makes it possible to start a stylized wedding from the first important minutes of its holding. Words for a maritime wedding must be appropriate and not lacking in solemnity.
Dear guests, on behalf of the young people, I am pleased to welcome you to the solemn ceremony of launching a new ship called “Family”. (Groom's name) and (bride's name) sailed on their small boats for many years and were brave and honest sailors. One day they met while landing on the shore of the island of Love. They stayed on this island, and over time built their large and powerful ship, which today should begin a long journey full of happy sunny days. Today you will become legal spouses, and I want to ask you, groom. Are your desires and intentions sincere? Are you entering into marriage with a pure heart? Are you ready to become the captain of the ship?
The groom answers.
Now you answer, bride. Are you ready to become a faithful, loving and caring wife of the ship's captain? Is your decision thoughtful and made in your right mind?
The bride answers.
Your positive answers give me the right to register the union. I ask you to come and sign it.
A ring for a family is like an anchor for a ship - a symbol of stability and confidence. Exchange rings to keep the couple at peace and remind them of each other.
Attention! The ship called "Family (surname)" has been launched and is ready to depart on its long journey around the world. I pronounce you husband and wife! And let storms and storms pass you by. You can kiss.
The words that are said at a sea wedding can also be used for a pirate-themed celebration, but only with minor adjustments.
Field registration scenario
It is not so easy to develop a script for on-site marriage registration on your own. In addition to the design and musical accompaniment, you definitely need to work out such points as:
- registrar's speech;
- the appearance of the newlyweds;
- the moment of a staged wedding.
You also need to think about how congratulations from those invited will be received. Special time should be allocated to words from parents and close relatives. Next, the newlyweds accept congratulations from other guests. Performances should be separated from each other by small inserts, for example, music for dancing, so that the ceremony does not start to seem boring.
Recorder's Speech
A professional actor or simply an artistic acquaintance is invited to play the role of the official conducting the wedding ceremony. Some registry offices offer this service. The choice is up to the newlyweds based on financial capabilities and preferences.
For the European scenario of on-site marriage registration, we can offer the following option:
“Dear guests of the ceremony! We are very pleased to welcome you to the celebration in honor of the marriage of (names of the newlyweds). Love is a divine gift that Heaven presented to our heroes. Today their souls enter into a union, and a new family is born!”
Next, the registrar introduces the newlyweds’ closest relatives and invites two witnesses to the marriage. The more heartfelt and unusual the registrar’s speech, the greater the impression it will make on the newlyweds and those around them, and therefore will leave a deeper imprint in the memory.
Newlyweds coming out
The appearance of those entering into marriage is often played out in this way:
- The groom's friends appear first. Depending on the scenario, they may line up along the path to the altar or in a semicircle around the registration area.
- Then the bridesmaids appear and stand opposite the groom's friends.
- Next, the host of the ceremony announces the groom’s entrance. He walks along the path and stands opposite the registrar.
- The culminating moment is the bride walking down the path arm in arm with her father, older brother or other significant man in her life. The newlywed takes a seat opposite the groom.
When everyone takes their seats, the ceremonial registration begins.
Announcement as husband and wife
The bride and groom stand opposite each other with their sides facing the guests and the person conducting the ceremony. The registrar says:
“Today we have gathered here to witness a significant event in the lives of ___ and ___. Before our eyes, a new union of two people is being born, who will move forward in life together, overcoming all adversity and rejoicing in success. By creating a family, a man and a woman undertake to take care of each other in sorrow and joy. Before officially consolidating your union, I must ask whether your desire to marry is mutual and voluntary. I ask the bride to give an answer. I ask the groom to give an answer. In accordance with the law, you are declared husband and wife.”
Next, the newlyweds can make mutual promises and put rings on each other. The final touch is a kiss from the newlyweds.
