Commitment Ceremony
In the same way couples today, who are not quite ready to marry, or for some reason are unable to marry, exchange vows - and perhaps rings - to underscore their commitment to each other. In particular, where either one or both partners have children, and have decided to set up a home together, they may arrange a Commitment Ceremony in front of their family and friends, to reassure the children of the seriousness of their intentions.
The Commitment Ceremony has no legal requirements or consequences. It is a ceremony in which partners express their feelings for each other, their hopes for the future, their gratitude for the past they may already have shared. They may like to involve family and friends in the ceremony itself or invite them as guests.
Same Sex Couple Have a right to have some type of Ceremony to Celebrate Their Love.
