Dear Christa,
We extend our sincere gratitude for not only serving as our marriage officer but also for officiating our wedding. Your willingness to assist on short notice and your guidance throughout the entire process s invaluable to us.

Today, we are officially Lance and Charles Booysen Piedt, married partners. You, Christa, will always be an integral part of our story.
Thank you for your time, guidance, patience, and understanding throughout this process.
We appreciate your efforts more than words can express.
With gratitude,
Lance & Charles Booysen Piedt
