"On the most important day of your life, please count on me to celebrate the precious moments of you two making the lifelong commitment to each other. It will be my honour to officiate your vows of love, and here's my vow to you: I'll make the fond memories of your big day all the more memorable."
Jen Chan, Vows & Bows
「我願對你承諾,從今天開始,無論是
順境或是逆境,富有或貧窮,
健康或疾病,
我將一生 一世永遠愛你、
保護你、珍惜你,直到永遠。」
每次聽到新人向彼此許下這個誓言
都有說不出的感動
能夠在你們人生中最重要的一天
道出你們的愛情故事
為你們莊嚴的承諾監禮
是我的快樂與榮幸
