Do you have to memorise "I give you this ring"?

by Summer | 26 September, 2007 - 07:05

I was wondering, when we are exchanging the rings, we have to say the words, "I give you this ring...", I was wondering if we as the couple have to memorise these lines or do we get to read them off a piece of paper, or does the minister say them and then we repeat? because I really don't think I can memorise those words, it's the main thing I'm stressing about.

Thanks so much

Summer

Hi Summer
Stress no longer...
The minister says the words a few at a time and you repeat them. No-one could expect you to remember.

If I'm taking a wedding and the bride or groom stumbles over the words I simply pause and then say it again. You'll be absolutely fine!

Everyone tells me that they'll laugh or cry during the vows but they never do. It'll be great on the day. Just look at him and mean it!
warmest regards
