For them, out of the routine of ordinary life, the extraordinary has happened. Today we have come together to witness the joining of these two lives. Who gives this Woman/Man today to be married (optional) Should there be anyone who has caused why this couple should not be united in marriage, Shush!! We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life’s greatest moments, the joining of two hearts and to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love, and to add our best wishes to the words which shall unite this couple in marriage.
So, if you find yourself officiating such a wedding, here is a sample, which might be useful. Short wedding sermons are great for a couple who want everything brief and straight to the point.
Pronouncement: The minister/officiant, pronounces the couple man and wife and re-introduces them to their guests. Exchange of Rings and Vows: The couple exchange rings and their vows. Wedding Sermon: The main part, the sermon usually stems from religious verses related to marriage, and the minister/officiant says a few words on the marriage institution. Prayer: The minister/officiant says a prayer over the couple, everyone attending, and the marriage ceremony. Giving of the Bride: The minister/officiant asks who gives the bride to be married to the groom, and the person filling this role, responds. Welcome: The minister/officiant, welcomes the guests to the joining of the couple in not so many words. While there is no strict rule on the structure of wedding ceremony sermons, they loosely follow the same similar outline. This entails either a religious or perhaps even non-religious speech on marriage and an exhortation of the couple to take marriage seriously and love each other throughout their time together. 
Wedding ceremony sermons are usually handled by the minister/officiant of the wedding.
