[SCENE: Throne Room]

CLARABELLE: We are gathered here today to take part in an celebration uniting a man and a woman in marriage. Mickey and Princess Minnie have come to witness before us, telling of their love for each other.

You have known each other from the first glance as acquaintance's to this point of lifetime commitment. From the moment you decided to marry, you have been making promises and agreements in an informal way.

All those conversations were held riding in the car, over a meal, or during long walks -- all those sentences that began with "When we're married" and continued with "I will and you will and we will" -- those late night talks and e-mails that included "someday" and "somehow" and "maybe" -- and all those promises that are unspoken matters of the heart.

All those little things, and more, are the real process of a wedding. Look to one another and remember that the symbolic vows you are about to make are a way of saying to each other, "you know all those things we've promised and hoped and dreamed -- well, I meant it all, every word."

The little things are the big things. It is never being too old to hold hands, It is remembering to say "I love you" at least once a day. It is never going to bed angry. It is never taking the other for granted; the courtship should not end with the honeymoon, it should continue through all years. It is having a mutual sense of values and common objectives.

It is standing together facing the world. It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family. It is doing things for each other, not in the attitude of duty or sacrifice, but in the spirit of joy. It is speaking words of appreciation and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways. It is not expecting the husband to wear a halo or the wife to have wings of an angel.

It is not looking for perfection in each other. It is cultivating flexibility, patience, understanding and a sense of humor. It is having the capacity to forgive and forget. It is giving each other an atmosphere in which each can grow. It is a common search for the good and the beautiful. It is establishing a relationship in which the independence is equal, dependence is mutual and the obligation is reciprocal. It is not marrying the right partner; it is being the right partner.

We remind Mickey and Princess Minnie that they are performing an act of complete faith in each other and that the heart of their marriage will be the relationship they create.

Mickey, do you receive Princess Minnie as your wife? Do you pledge to her your love, faith and tenderness, cherishing her with a husband's loyalty and devotion?

MICKEY: "I do."

CLARABELLE: Princess Minnie, do you receive Mickey as your husband? Do you pledge to him your love, faith and tenderness, cherishing him with a wife's loyalty and devotion?

PRINCESS MINNIE: "I do."

CLARABELLE: The wedding ring is a symbol of unity, a circle unbroken, without beginning or end. And today Mickey and Princess Minnie give and receive these rings as outward symbols of their vows to make their lives one, to work at all times to create a life that is whole and unbroken, and to love each other without end.

Mickey, take this ring and place it on Princess Minnie's finger and say to her these words:

"I begin my life with you today knowing that we have developed a trust and commitment that is strong enough to last through good times and bad. With this ring, I offer you my hand, my heart, and my soul as I know they will be safe with you."

MICKEY: I begin my life with you today knowing that we have developed a trust and commitment that is strong enough to last through good times and bad. With this ring, I offer you my hand, my heart, and my soul as I know they will be safe with you.

CLARABELLE: Princess Minnie, take this ring and place it on Mickey's finger and say to him these words:

"I begin my life with you today knowing that we have developed a trust and commitment that is strong enough to last through good times and bad. With this ring, I offer you my hand, my heart, and my soul as I know they will be safe with you."

PRINCESS MINNIE: I begin my life with you today knowing that we have developed a trust and commitment that is strong enough to last through good times and bad. With this ring, I offer you my hand, my heart, and my soul as I know they will be safe with you.

CLARABELLE: Today is a day you will always remember. You started off the day just two people in love and are ending it as husband and wife. It's a brand new beginning, the start of a journey, with moments to cherish and treasure. And although there'll be times you both disagree, these will surely be outweighed by pleasure.

So live happy forever as lovers and friends, it's the dawn of a new life for you, as you stand there together with love in your eyes remember the advice that has been given to you by family and friends. By standing together side by side, all your hopes and your dreams can be real. You future will bring you the greatest of joys, but remember today is the day it all starts.

Before the pronouncing however, I assume a bit of coronation is in order.

(Daisy hands the crown to Clarabelle)

(Clarabelle raises up the crown)

CLARABELLE: I hereby crown you Mickey, prince of France.

(Clarabelle places the crown on Mickey's head; the audience applauds; Donald hands the scepter to Mickey; Goofy puts the royal mantle on Mickey)

CLARABELLE: Prince Mickey and Princess Minnie, as a collection of words, this ceremony would count for little. It was the love and commitment you have pledged to one another that gave it meaning. Your vows may have been spoken in minutes, but your promises to each other will last a lifetime. Having witnessed your vows for marriage with all who are assembled here, and by the authority vested in me, I announce with great joy that you are husband and wife.


(Prince Mickey and Princess Minnie kiss each other for at least ten seconds; the crowd cheers happily)
