01:00You may be seated.
01:07Welcome. Thank you for being here today.
01:11We're gathered to celebrate the marriage of Kevin and Lisa.
01:15Two souls that have found each other to create the awesome power that is their beautiful blended family.
01:23The bride and groom would like to thank their family and friends for being here to witness their love today,
01:28but especially to thank their four beautiful daughters, Gianna, Leanne, Daphne, and Emerson, for being a part of this very special day.
01:39One thing that strikes me about this pairing is the love they share for those four girls.
01:49We just need to take a quick moment of silence in honor of Kevin, because he rarely gets one.
01:54I got you.
01:55As a new parent, I understand the difficulties that come with parenting.
02:02It's a whole new ballgame that tests and pushes the boundaries of a marriage.
02:07But you two have decided to make a vow in front of God, your friends and family, and of course, in front of X to You Nation,
02:15to solidify and say, we will always be mom and dad, but now also, we will forever be husband and wife.
02:26Whether they are standing on this stage with all of us, or did it in a courthouse, or decided to go to somebody's backyard,
02:34they always said that this is it would be their wedding song.
02:38And we're very lucky to have Scotty McCreary here today, after we say our vows, to sing so they can dance together to that song.
02:48But the song, This Is It, the one they have chosen, is a song that speaks to love never ending.
02:54On top of the world here together is one of the lyrics, and that's where you guys are right now.
03:00On top of the world here together.
03:02Lisa is a teacher. She works day in, day out with kids who are deaf and hard of hearing.
03:09She herself is fluent in sign language.
03:11Now, when I found this out, I called a friend of mine who is a sign language interpreter.
03:16And I told her, man, how cool would it be if I signed some of the song for them, right?
03:22And she was saying, okay, well, the difficult part of that is sign language is not a direct translation.
03:30It's actually an interpretation.
03:33She said, I can't just tell you how to sign the words, this is it, this is now.
03:38Because we need to sign what that actually means in the context of the song.
03:44For example, out of context, This Is It could be like, hey, babe, did you find your favorite hard seltzer flavor?
03:50Yeah, this is it.
03:53Or you have one of the four beautiful girls maybe misbehaving a little bit and throws food off the table.
03:58And you say, this is it, go to your room.
04:01Two very different contexts.
04:04So my sign language interpreter friend and I talked and talked and talked through what the song means.
04:10What does This Is It mean when it comes to this incredible hit song from Scotty McCreary?
04:15In the song, This Is It, it means cherish this.
04:23This is forever.
04:26And forever starts now.
04:28And it's kind of fitting because in music, that's what lyrics are, right?
04:34They're not just words on paper.
04:36They mean so much more.
04:38And the marriage between sign language and music and country music, especially with the great storytelling, is perfect.
04:46This is it.
04:48This is now.
04:51This is forever.
04:53And forever starts now.
04:57Are you guys ready?
05:03Gianna, could you please present the rings to your father?
05:06Kevin, please take Lisa's ring, and I'll hold the box for you.
05:15There you go.
05:19And please grab her left hand and repeat after me.
05:23I, Kevin, take you Lisa.
05:27To be my lawfully wedded wife.
05:29To have and to hold.
05:34From this day forward.
05:37For better, for worse.

05:45Until death do us part.
05:48If you take this woman as your wife, say, I do.
05:50I do.
05:51You may put the ring on her finger.
05:54Guess what comes next.
05:57My turn.

06:18For better, for worse.
06:19For better, for worse.
06:20For richer, for poorer.
06:21For richer, for poorer.
06:23In sickness and in health.
06:24In sickness and in health.
06:26Until death do us part.
06:27Until death do us part.
06:28If you take this man to be your husband, say, I do.
06:31I do.
06:34You can place the ring right there.
06:35Perfect.
06:38And by the power vested in me by the great commonwealth of Pennsylvania in front of God,
06:43Kevin and Lisa's friends and family, I now pronounce you man and wife.
06:47You may kiss your bride.
06:53For the very first time, I'm excited to introduce to you, Mr. and Mrs. Kevin White.
