"TO HAVE AND TO HOLD"
MARRIAGE RECORDS

For as much as John and Mary have consented together in wedlock, and have witnessed the same before this company of friends and family, and have given and pledged their promises to each other, and have declared the same by giving and receiving a ring, and by joining hands. By the authority vested in me by the State of Tennessee, I pronounce this couple to be husband and wife. What God hath joined together, let no man put asunder."
