The wedding couple should share every minute of life together, during times of happiness and sadness, ease and difficulty, frustration and depression.

Marital connection is the foundation stone of two person’s lives.

Over that foundation they build every second of their life, and a plan to guide their children in the proper path until they mature and step out on their own.

When two people of the opposite sex are united by marriage, they are responsible to each other for anything and everything, anytime and every time, anywhere and everywhere.

Under no circumstances, should one disobey or disregard the other. Even in time of disagreement, a peaceful solution should be the only answer.

As long as both are going according to their religion, tradition and customs and abide by the laws of their society, neither should disobey nor disregard the other.

Loyalty, honesty and taking care is all about a successful life together. No one should be dishonest or disloyal to the other. Mutual understanding and trust between both will bind the marriage together forever.

In the name of the Almighty and most merciful God and in the witness of all who are present this day, including staff of Herathera Island Resort, may I ask you?

Mr. ____________, do you accept Ms. __________ as your wedded wife?

Ms. ____________, do you accept Mr. __________ as your wedded husband?

As a sign of your matrimony to one another, the groom may put the wedding ring on the bride’s finger and the bride may put the wedding ring on the groom’s finger.

Now, I proclaim Mr. & Mrs. __________ as husband and wife

Now the groom may kiss the bride
