地道美语听力播客:A Traditional Wedding

I arrived at my friend Karin’s wedding a little late and the ceremony had already begun. I’ve been to a lot of civil ceremonies , but it had been a while since I’d attended a religious one. They had asked a minister to officiate .
When I arrived, Karin and her fiancé , Jan, were standing in front of the church.
Minister: We are gathered here today to join Jan and Karin in holy matrimony . If there is anyone here who knows of a reason why these two should not be joined in marriage, speak now or forever hold your peace .
Fortunately, no one said anything.
Minister: Jan and Karin, please face each other and join hands.
Minister: [To Jan] Do you, Jan Casanova, take Karin Valentine, to be your lawfully weddedwife, to have and to hold , to love and to cherish , for better and for worse, for richer and for poorer, in sickness and in health, ‘till death do you part .
Jan said, “I do,” and the minister asked Karin the same question, and she said, “I do,” as well.
Minister: May I have the rings? [To Jan] Please place this ring, a symbol of your love, on Karin’s hand and say, “ With this ring, I thee wed ”.
Jan put the ring on the fourth finger of Karin’s left hand. Karin said the same thing and put a ring on Jan’s finger.
Minister: I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.
Jan and Karin kissed and we all applauded .
Minister: Ladies and gentleman, it is my great honor to present to you for the very first time the happy couple, Jan and Karin.
