Do you do LGBTQ+ Weddings?
Of course, we do!
The Colorado Wedding Ministers are proud and blessed to be able to celebrate with all the couples that want to proclaim their love to the world. We believe that if you love someone that your gender is no barrier to who you love.
We have been performing LGBT weddings, commitments and celebrations since we began.
Love knows no color, sex, creed, race or religion. Love just is!
Many LBGTQ+ couples have the same challenges and hiccups as any other two people who love each other and want to spend the rest of their lives together. We are happy to come to your location on any day of the week to celebrate the love that you share! With almost 40 years combined experience we can make your celebration one of the most amazing days of your life!

A. & J. In Estes Park
...To all their guests, they are happy to share this moment with you. You are the most important people to them. You watched them grow up, you went to school with them, played sports with them, mentored them, and worked with them. Because you are the ones who have supported them and known them so well, it is only fitting that you, the people who mean the most to them, are the ones to share their once-in-a-lifetime moment.
A wedding day is often a day when couples miss family members no longer with them. For A. and J., there are friends and family members whose memories they hold dear. A. has his Grandmother R. , and for J. it is M. and C.
~Memory Candle~
To honor those who are no longer with us, A., J., gentlemen if you would please step forward and light your memory candle, and the flame will warm our hands and hearts with the memory of those who are no longer with us. At this time, please let’s have a moment of silence for those who are remembered in the flames of these candles.
And now, let us bow our heads in prayer. Lord, we thank you again, for gathering everyone here today. We know what it took for many to be here with us today. We ask that you help A. and J. to remember the strong love that they share. To work that love into practical things so that nothing can divide them. May their love always inspire them to be kind in their words, considerate of the other’s feelings, and concerned for the other’s needs and wishes. Increase their faith and trust in You. Bless this marriage with peace and happiness and make their Love fruitful for Your glory and their joy, both here and in eternity.
Amen.

..This is the part where I have some very important questions for you.
Do you A. take M. to no other than himself, rejoicing in all the ways life may find you? To grow and grow old together? Promising to give him, the best of yourself, and to love him endlessly?
A.
I will
Now A. you have a few words you would like to say to M.
Do you M. take A. to no other than himself, rejoicing in all the ways life may find you? To grow and grow old together? Promising to give him, the best of yourself, and to love him endlessly?
M.
I will
Now M. you have a few words you would like to say to A.
And do you both promise to make the necessary adjustments in your personal lives in order that you may live in a harmonious relationship together?
A. and M.
We do
I want to you know that to make this relationship work, it will take more than just love.
It will take trust, to know in your hearts that you want only the best for each other. It will take dedication, to stay open to one another, to learn and grow, even when it is difficult to do so. And it will take faith, to go forward together without knowing what the future holds for you both. While love is our natural state of being, these other qualities are not as easy to come by. This is not just a destination, but a journey...

~Closing~
...Once again, look at this person standing before you, feel the warmth of those hands holding yours. That person has made amazing promises today and has joined their life with yours. I promise we are almost complete and there is a very special ending for you!
May the love, which has brought you together, continue to grow and enrich your lives. May you continue to meet with courage any problems, which may arise to challenge you. May your relationship always be one of love and trust. May the happiness you share today be with you always. And may everything you have said and done here today become a living truth in your lives. It has been said that love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs, but rejoices with the truth. Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, love never gives up. Love is that most profound of all experiences that can come to humankind. It reduces out selfishness, deepens our personalities and makes life far more meaningful. Its very nature is to want to give to each other and feel the joy of one another. Such love an bring out the best qualities in each of you.
P. and S., I have heard your promises to share your lives in marriage. I recognize and respect the covenant you have made here this day. Therefore, in the honesty and sincerity of what you have said and done here today and by the power vested in me by this great and beautiful state of Colorado, it is my honour and delight to declare you married and partners in life...for life.
You may seal your vows with a kiss.
