20120221是老公生日的隔一天,
我們在當地市政廳申請了結婚註冊的登記儀式.
為什麼不乾脆選在老公生日登記??
因為我龜毛的老公希望獨享生日當天的"優勢",
而不要被結婚登記紀念日給瓜分"注意力"了....
公公婆婆是我們的證婚人,
下午公公先開車來接我們到市政廳,
婆婆則一路高興的一直幫我們拍照...
市政廳的儀式很簡單,
會有一位主婚人幫我們念誓詞,
然後請我們交換戒指跟親吻,
等大家都簽完名後就可以拿到他們發的結婚證書了...
儀式中, 主婚人會先念著....
Marriage is based on love and trust.
(婚姻的基礎是愛和信任)
By entering into marriage, you promise to respect and support each other.
(進入婚姻後, 你們承諾彼此將永遠互相尊重與扶持)
As spouses, you are two independent individuals who can gain strength from your union.
(身為夫妻, 你們本為兩個獨立的個體會藉由這樣的結合得到更大的力量)
When you now go into your lives and return to your daily routines, remember your will for this union, your love for each other and the respect for each other that you have felt at this moment and that has brought you here.
(當你們回到材米油鹽的日常生活後, 請仍謹記著今天所許下的婚姻誓言, 與你們對彼此的愛和尊重.....)
然後就交換戒指跟親吻...
回到公婆家後, 大家幫我們準備了一個小型的 wedding party,
只邀請了住在附近的親戚參加.
婆婆還親手了烤了一個 Princess Wedding Cake 喔...(超好吃的~~)
