Minister: And now John & Marlena will exchange rings.

John snaps his finger at Eric for the ring. Everyone laughs. Eric hands John the ring.

John: Good job kid. This gold ring is a symbol of my love and fidelity to you. It's made from a prescious medal in the shape of a circle which had no beginning and no end. And so is my love for you. It is prescious and never ending. As this ring encircles your finger never forget that your love encircles my heart.
