Dream
Today is the celebration of a beautiful dream becoming a beautiful life. We, _____ and _____, stand here in _______, _______ before our dearest family and friends, as bride and groom/beloveds/lovers/partners to say these words and exchange these rings on the _____ day of _____ in the year five thousand seven hundred and ________, which is _______(day of the week), ________ __, ____ (secular date).
Together we dreamed of a future life. Our love thrived upon that dream and nurtured our hearts, so that we can’t imagine a future without seeing each other in it. Even when we are far apart, our hearts are together. We are apparently two, but one in heart.
Together we have the strength to take on any challenge, to comfort and care through every difficulty, to listen, to be true to ourselves, to be loyal and trustworthy, and to keep trying. We promise to respect and cherish each other, making sure to protect each other’s needs to learn and grow.
From the moment we sign this ketubah, we accept all of the rights and responsibilities of marriage.
