Freemasonry makes no claim or pretense for authority to unite couples in marriage.
The lessons of Freemasonry are applicable though in all aspects of a Mason’s life. Symbols are used to teach moral lessons that surely can be of help in the marital relationship.
Glen Cook, the founder of Utah Wedding Officiants, has written an explanatory ceremony that we offer to the couple. It incorporates the working tools from the Masonic degrees with agreement from the couple to apply them in their relationship. Without using the ritual, it will recall to the Mason’s mind his obligations, but as now applied to his new spouse.
When the groom’s masonic brethren are present, their participation is invited to give a public acknowledgment of the duties to which they have obligated themselves toward a brother Mason’s wife.
