At nagsimula na ang ceremony.

Priest: Let me charge you both to remember, that your future happiness is to be found in mutual consideration, patience, kindness, confidence, and affection. Jose Marie, it is your duty to love Anna Karylle, as yourself, provide tender leadership, and protect her from danger. Anna Karylle,  it is your duty to treat Jose Marie with respect, support him, and create a healthy, happy home. It is the duty of each of you to find the greatest joy in the company of the other; to remember that in both interest and affection, you are to be one and undivided.

 Jose Marie, do you take Anna Karylle to be your wedded wife, and in the presence of these witnesses do you vow that you will do everything in your power to make your love for her a growing part of your life? Will you continue to strengthen it from day to day and week to week with your best resources? Will you stand by her in sickness or in health, in poverty or in wealth, and will you shun all others and keep yourself to her alone as long as you both shall live?

V: I do Father..

Priest: Anna Karylle, do you take Jose Marie to be your wedded husband, and in the presence of these witnesses do you vow that you will do everything in your power to make your love for him a growing part of your life? Will you continue to strengthen it from day to day and week to week with your best resources? Will you stand by him in sickness or in health, in poverty or in wealth, and will you shun all others and keep yourself to him alone as long as you both shall live?

Hindi naman agad sumagot si K kaya naman kinabahan bigla si Vice. Natakot sya na baka biglang tumakbo nalang si K, pero makaraan ng ilang saglit…

K: I… I do…

Matapos nun ay sumunod na ang vows nila para sa isa’t isa. Si Karylle ang nauna at binanggit lang ang usual na wedding vow. Sinabi nya ito habang nagpipigil ng luha.

K: I,Anna Karylle, take you Jose Marie, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, 'til death do us part: according to God's holy ordinance, and thereto I pledge you my love and faithfulness.

After nun ay si Vice naman ang nagsabi ng kanyang vow. Pero ang vow na ito ay galling sa kanyang puso..

V: I take you Anna Karylle to be my wife. Pinapangako ko na hinding-hindi kita sasaktan o paluluhain man lang. Lagi kitang susuporthan ano man ang mangyari. Kung kailangan mo ng kaibigan nandito lang ako, kung naghahanap ka ng kausap mananatili ako sa tabi mo. Hinding-hindi ako magbabago ipapangako ko na ako parin ang Vice na maaasahan mo nung magkaibigan palang tayo. At ngayong papasok na tayo sa bagong yugto bilang mag-asawa.. asahan mong gagwin ko ang lahat upang maging mabuting ama sa magiging anak natin. Maraming maraming salamat dahil hinayaan mo akong pumasok sa buhay mo at kilalaning ama ng anak natin.

Matapos nun ay tumingin na sya sa pari para bigyang signal na tapos na sya.

Priest: "The wedding ring is a symbol of eternity. It is an outward sign of an inward and spiritual bond which unites two hearts in endless love. And now as a token of your love and of your deep desire to be forever united in heart and soul, you Jose Marie, may place a ring on the finger of your bride."
V: "Anna Karylle, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness to you."
Priest: "By the same token Anna Karylle, you may place a ring on the finger of your groom."
K: Jose Marie, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness to you."

Priest: Now that Jose Marie and Anna Karylle have given themselves to each other by the promises they have exchanged, I pronounce them to be husband and wife, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Jose Marie, you may now kiss your bride.

And with this, Vice lift K’s veil. Pagkita lalo sa mukha ni K ay mas nakita nya ang lungkot sa mata nito but she still managed to force a smile.

Sa halip naman na sa labi ito halikan ni Vice ay sa noo nalamang nya ito hinalikan at niyakap nalang ng mahigpit sabay bulong ng…

V: I won’t kiss you on your lips because I want to respect you….
