"I now pronounce you man and wife

Please Rise,
Let us now all give a joyous blessing to the loving bond of this couple.
These two minds, bodies and souls are entering a lifetime of shared dreams, shared questions and shared exploration of the ineffable mysteries of life itself.
We bless their continuing exploration of these eternal questions of life and love ... questions like "where are my socks?", "What did you do with my keys?" and "Do you know what day this IS ?"
May the bond of their love answer these questions with joy and tolerance from this day forward.

I now present to you Mr and Mrs. Chen
