ACT 3 “我愿意。”
【故事梗概】
Susan和Harry的婚礼如期进行了。婚礼简朴而温馨。
Judge: Philip… Ellen.
Philip: Ah, Judge.
Judge: How are you? [He looks at Ellen. ]How are you, my dear?
Ellen: Hello.
Judge: I think it's time for the wedding to begin.
[They all enter the living room.]
Judge: All right, ladies and gentlemen. Please take your places. The wedding ceremony is about to begin.
[The Judge, the family, and the guests go outside to the patio for the ceremony.]
Judge: OK, Jane. Start the music. Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony. Do either of you have any reason why you should not legally be joined in marriage? Is there anyone present who can show any just cause why these two people should not be legally joined in marriage? Then, Harry Bennett, do you take Susan Stewart to be your lawful, wedded wife?
Harry: I do.
Judge: And you, Susan Stewart, do you take Harry Bennett to be your lawful, wedded husband?
Susan: I do.
Judge: The rings, please.
[Harry looks in his jacket pocket for the wedding rings. But he can't find them.]
Richard: I have them, Harry.
[Harry takes the rings from Richard. He puts one on Susan's finger. She takes the other ring and puts it on Harry's finger.]
Judge: By the power vested in me by the laws of the State of New York, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride now, Harry.
[Harry lifts the veil and kisses Susan. The guests laugh, applaud, and throw confetti. ]
