Sample, Simple Voodoo Wedding Vows

Opening blessing:
We are grown and gathered and bound
And the binding is well;
We are fixed at the hip and the hand
And the head and the heel;
We are planted beneath the land,
Forever to wheel
As the earth and the sun are wound
On a golden reel,
As the ripening grasses stand,
And pale and fall.

Priestess to Groom:
Let HE who wishes to be joined approach me now.
Groom comes forward

Priest to Bride:
Let SHE who wishes to be joined approach me now.

Should any of the Spirits here gathered have objections to this union, now is the time to make it known.

Repeate after me: (Groom's name) I bring you the light of my love.

As you have stated your desire to be united, one with the other, take now these rings and place them upon each others finger, as pledge and testimony to your love and commitment to each other.
