Instructions
The date of the original vows and exchange should be entered,
The names of husband and Wife should be printed and signed, then a witness of the Church and
congregation of the people should sign and date the form. Additional seals and signatures may be added
as verification of the Churches certification.
Using a notary or Apostille is a debatable thing to do. I would say never on the original.

The Purpose of these forms and documents:


"If men, through fear, fraud, or mistake, should in terms renounce or give up any natural right, the
eternal law of reason and the grand end of society would absolutely vacate such renunciation. The right
to freedom being a gift of ALMIGHTY GOD, it is not in the power of man to alienate this gift and
voluntarily become a slave." Samuel Adams, 1772

Paper is only evidence of intent. If there was no meeting of the minds there was no consent and by
mistake the contract is void but that which was exchanged or received must be returned. "He who
mistakes does not consent" (Non consentit qui errat).

"Written obligations are superseded by writings, and an obligation of naked assent is dissolved by assent
to the contrary" (Scriptae obligationes scriptis toluntur, et nudi consensus obligatio consensus obligatio contario consensu
dissolvitur),

"Nothing is so natural as to dissolve anything in the way in which it was bound together; therefore the
obligation of words is taken away by words; the obligation of mere consent is dissolved by the contrary
consent" (Nihil tam naturale est, quam eo genere quidque dissolvere, quo colligatum est; ideo verborum obligatio verbis tollitur;
nudi consensus obligatio contrario consensu dissolvitur).

Remember always that it is not what is said but what is done. "It is natural for a thing to be unbound in
the same way in which it was bound" (Naturale est quidlibet dissolvi eo modo quo ligatur),
