vows and ceremony script?

I'm looking for a good script to give my officiant, he's a family friend, and I want a very short simple ceremony. Also, I heard about a couple who instead of lighting a unity candle exchanged love letters, put them in a box an d saved them for a hard time.   I LOVE this idea. Has anyone seen a script? Or have tips for where I can look?
Thanks!

    I havent seen a script including the love letters (Which I plan on doing also... my fiance and I are writing love letters but locking them in a box with a bottle of wine for a later anniversary). But! If you're looking for some ceremony script ideas check out the Swedenborgian Church in San Francisco's website under "Weddings" and half way down the page they have four different ceremony options. You can go through their options and pick and choose what you like so that when you sit down with an officiant you can present him with ideas you like. Hope this helps!

    P.S. I like the traditional ceremony the best. I cried the first time I read it!

    Great suggestion for ceremony script/options on the Swedenborgian Church site.  I like elements of all four ceremonies.  This will give our officiant, FI and me a very solid starting point.  Thank you!!

    We're doing a wine box ceremony as well, here's a sample for a ceremony reading.  Our officiant also helped us customize this to fit us, we made it a little more comical.
