I, (name), take thee, (name), to be my wedded wife/husband, and I do promise and covenant, before God and these witnesses, to be thy loving and faithful wife/husband, in plenty and in want, in joy and in sorrow, in sickness and in health, as long as we both shall live.
This ring I give you, in token and pledge of our constant faith and abiding love.
