Alice takes a folded piece of paper she had hidden in her hand and begins reading it. “Every love story is beautiful but ours is my favorite. The beginning was rocky, the middle scary, and the ending beautiful and perfect. When I first approached you I never thought it would blossom into this. I just thought you were really cute and wanted to get you in bed, “Alice says smiling hearing the laughter from their guest behind her. Tasha looking at her while she read her vows is trying her best not to get chocked up. “Little did I know underneath that beauty I would find someone whose smile alone warms my heart. I believe in despite of everything we have been through our love was able to last because we both made a choice to keep it, fight for it, and work for it. Love was just a word before you showed it to me. I promise to support, encourage, honor, respect, and love you for the rest of my life. Thank you for trusting me with your heart, I love you.”

Tasha takes a step closer to Alice taking both of her hands into hers taking one last deep breath before speaking. “I wrote my vows but I rather speak from the heart. I’ve always prided myself on how strong of a person I was. Never the emotional type or to show any weakness and then I met you. Alice you are my weakness, “Tasha says wrapping her arms around her waist and pulling her close into her. “Baby, you grabbed a hold of my heart and I’ve been hooked ever since. Seeing you standing here before me helps me realize how beautiful my world is. It’s been one heck of ride and I’ve loved you every step of the way. I promise to always be there for you, honor and uplift you, support you, encourage you, protect you, and most importantly love you until my dying breath. I don’t love you because I need you——I need you because I love you.” As Tasha ended her vows there wasn’t a dry eye in the audience. Tasha surprised herself she wasn’t expecting to get that emotional but again Alice was her weakness.

The officiant also moved by both Tasha and Alices words signaled to them it was time for the exchanging of their rings. Taking Tashas hand, “Tasha I offer this ring to you as a symbol of my love, devotion, and commitment and with it I join my life with yours, “she says while sliding Tasha band on her finger. Tasha taking Alice hand, “Alice, I offer this ring to you as a symbol of my love, devotion, and commitment and with it I join my life with yours, “and slides 1-1/2 carat 10k white gold diamond swirl ring on her finger.
