Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller
White Plains, New York; June 29, 1956
We are here today to participate in a most joyous occasion, to celebrate one of life's greatest moments, by acknowledging the wedding of Arthur and Marilyn.
Arthur, do you take Marilyn to be your lawful wedded wife? Do you promise to love, honor, and protect her? Share the good times and achievements as well as the hard times and disappointments? Keep her in sickness and in sorrow and to be faithful to her forevermore?
Marilyn, do you take Arthur to be your lawful wedded husband? Do you promise to love, honor, and protect him? Share the good times and achievements as well as the hard times and disappointments? Keep him in sickness and in sorrow and to be faithful to him forevermore?
I give you this ring in token and pledge as a symbol of all that we share with my constant faith and abiding love.
Now that you have joined yourselves in matrimony, may you strive always to meet this commitment with the same spirit you now exhibit. We all bear witness to this ceremony you have just performed and you may now call yourselves by those old and respected names, husband and wife. May God bless this union. You may kiss the bride.

marilyn was unwell long before she met arthur. look at her life, look at her history, look at how she described her career, her life. she saw it as an empty purpose as people only focused on her external beauty. he loved her for her and thats what she needed and held onto. he realised that nothing was gonna provide her with acceptance of life and most importantly herself. it was no one's fault.

@Hunterunc Miller's "huge career" had stalled by the time he married her. He used her for material--the dreadful "Misfits" and then, his play "After the Fall" produced after her death. It was his first hit in years, and by the way--his LAST. He was cold--insitutionalized his handicapped son with Inge Morath.

I think that Miller was a narcissistic jerk, who used Monroe and then spit her out. I think i would reexamine just who was the needy one in the relationship and who was using who.

Miller tried his best with her. He all but put his huge career on hold while they were together because she was so emotionally needy. Like many men, he saw her dazzling outer self and didn't realize what a complicated girl she really was. There was blame on both sides. too bad because they seemed so radiantly happy at first...
