Royce and Mary Rose's Wedding

Fisher smiled warmly at the beautiful bride and groom and when the choir finished the openingshymne, he raised his hands and blessed the couple, holding his hands above their heads.

'In nomine patri et fili spiritu sancti...''

Mary will be the force take to concentrate of the Wedding.
She look at her father but he don`t look at her,so as she is not there.
Mary have a deep bad feel.
She miss her mother at the Wedding.

I turned to Fisher as he started the ceremony smiling still.My heart was beating so fast, because of all the feelings that build inside of me.

Fisher smiled faintly and turned to the crowd, his hands raised to them.

Dearly beloved, we are gathered together here in the sight of God to join together this Man and this Woman in holy Matrimony; which is an honourable estate, instituted of God in Paradise, and into which holy estate these two persons present come now to be joined.
Therefore if any man can shew any just cause, why they may not lawfully be joined together, let him now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold his peace. he paused for a moment.

"Charles was watching the ceremony from his place. He looked at Mary's happy face, and for a while he remembered his secret wedding ceremony in Suffolk with Margaret. He glanced at Emilie, who was their witness that time. Then he took a breath: many things changed since then, and now he just wished an happy life for his ex sister in law"

I was still smiling brightly looking at Fisher as my heart was beating even stronger than before with excitement and happiness that I felt.I gently squeezed Royce's hand when Fisher continue to speak.

He turned to Royce, looking directly into his eyes and asked him.

Wilt the have this Woman to be thy wedded wife, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of Matrimony? Wilt the love her, comfort her, honour, and keep her, in sickness and in health; and forsaking all other, keep thee only unto her, so long as ye both shall live?

Mary hope that she will have in furure a wonderful Wedding Ceremony too.
She listen to Bishop Fischers words.

Fisher nodded, turned to Mary Rose and asked her.

´Wilt the have this man to be thy wedded husband, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of Matrimony? Wilt the obey him, and serve him, love, honour, and keep him in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all other, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?´

I looked at Royce and than back at Fisher nodding.

''I do...''

I said with brightly smile.

Fisher smiled faintly and then looked at king Henry, still standing beside Mary Rose.
He cleared his throat and asked loudly.

Who giveth this Woman to be married to this Man?

As Henry confirmed it was him, he made him place Mary Rose's right hand in Fisher's hand and he waited for Henry to retire, before he continued and caused Royce to take over Mary Rose's hand so they held eachother's right hand.

Please, repeat after me... he said to Royce and said the vows loudly before him, chopped in pieces.

I, Royce Westmoreland, take thee, Mary Rose Tudor, to my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, for fairer or fouler, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us depart, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereunto I plight thee my troth.

He turned to Mary Rose and nodded.

Please, repeat after me: I, Mary Rose Tudor, take thee, Royce Westmoreland to my wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to be bonny and buxom at bed and at board, to love and to cherish, till death us depart, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereunto I plight thee my troth.

Listening to the service still feels a pang off being hurt but knows that there is only one man I love now

I looked at Royce with a smile and repeated the words.

''I, Mary Rose Tudor, take thee, Royce Westmoreland to my wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to be bonny and buxom at bed and at board, to love and to cherish, till death us depart, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereunto I plight thee my troth.''

I squeezed his hand back gently.

Fisher smiled softly and made them again loose their hands and asked Royce for the rings, he layed them on the Holy Book and spoke loudly.

Bless these Rings, O merciful Lord, that those who wear them, that give and receive them, may be ever faithful to one another, remain in your peace, and live and grow old together in your love, under their own vine and fig tree, and seeing their children's children. Amen.

He gave the smallest ring to Royce, to put it on the fourth finger of the Mary Rose´s left hand, holding the ring there, and asked him again to repeat after him.

With this Ring I thee wed, (here placing it upon her thumb) and with my body I thee honor, (here placing it upon her index finger) and with all my worldly goods I thee endow; (here placing it upon her ring finger) In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

My eyes were black and shining, my heart beating with love.Once he put the ring on my finger I smiled up at him with joy in my eyes.

Fisher smiled warmly as Royce put the ring on her finger, nodding approvingly, then he took the larger ring and gave it to Mary Rose.

For you the same, Mary Rose, please, repeat the words after me. He slowly said the same words as Royce just spoke to her, so she could repeat them while she slid the ring on his finger.

I took a ring and put it on Royce finger slowly.Then I raised my eyes to his and repeat the words.

''With this Ring I thee wed, and with my body I thee honor,and
with all my worldly goods I thee endow; In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.''

Fisher waited for her to say the words and put the ring on Royce's hand, then he stepped backwards so they could kneel down. He exclaimed loudly while he held his hands above their heads.

Oo eternal God, Creator and Preserver of all mankind, Giver of all spiritual grace, the Author of everlasting life; Send thy blessing upon these thy servants, this Man and this Woman, whom we bless in thy Name; that they, living faithfully together, may surely perform and keep the vow and covenant betwixt them made, (whereof this Ring given and received is a token and pledge,) and may ever remain in perfect love and peace together, and live according to thy laws; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

He joined their hands together and said sincerely.
Those whom God hath joined together let no man put asunder. I pronounce that you are now Man and Wife. He smiled at Royce.
You may kiss the Bride...

I kneel down next to Royce and listened carefully Fisher as he spoke with brightly smile on my face.
