The best way I can describe this imminent change is by analogy. As a student of chemistry, I imagine Rea and Steve to be two distinct compounds [hold up two flasks]. To the naked eye, they appear similar. However, the true beauty that they bring to this world is in their combination [mix]. It is this reaction, their bonding to one another, inseparable by any force, it is this reaction that gives the world more happiness to just marvel at their love. This is something special. This is something unique. The gift of love they give each other is amplified by all here, we revelers in their mirth. This is why we’ve gathered, and this is why we praise them!
