Description

You see Murwer the Devotee of Darkness.
He appears to be a Burghal Gnome.
He is short and young.  Despite his minuscule stature, he casts an imposing figure.  Piercing bright blue eyes stare intently from his heavily lined face.  Thin lips pressed into a straight line lend a stern look to his features.
He is in good shape.
Silky robes the color of moonless midnight pool around his slippered feet.  Three unassuming silver rings grace his right hand and an elaborate mithril pendant bearing a large bloodstone rests against his chest.

Ceremony

Murwer strides forward, flanked by two attendants in ebon velvet robes.  One attendant places a simple wooden dais before those gathered, while the other drapes it in an onyx-inlaid midnight black-colored cloth.  Murwer steps toward the dais and raises his hands, waiting for silence.

In a soft, raspy voice that cuts through the silence, Murwer says, "We are all here today to bear witness to the union of GROOM and BRIDE in holy matrimony.  Marriage is a covenant, ratified by mortals and glorified by the gods.  Present your offerings to Lornon and ask for blessings upon the couple."

Turning to face you, Murwer asks, "Do you, GROOM, take BRIDE to be your wedded companion under the law of the land and in the eyes of the gods of Lornon?"
