(Musical bridge, sounds of wedding bells)

Miss Piggy: He'll make me happy. Each time I see him. He'll be the reason. My heart can sing. He'll stand beside me. And now I'm everything.

Kermit: She'll make me happy. Each time I hold her. And I will follow where my heart may lead. And she'll be all I'll ever need.

Babies: Days go passing into years

Old Ladies: Years go passing day by day.

Pig Family: She'll make him happy. Now and forever.

Frog Family: Until forever...their love will grow.

Muppet Family: She only knows...he'll make her happy. That's all she needs to know.

All: They'll be so happy. Now and forever. Until forever their love will grow-

Miss Piggy: I only know. He'll make me happy. That's all I need...to...know...

Kermit: (whispering, upon his realization): I thought Gonzo was going to play the minister...Piggy says nothing.

Minister: Do you, Piggy, take this frog to be your lawful wedded husband--do you?

Miss Piggy: I do...

Minister: Do you Froggie take this Pig to be your lawful wedded wife until you die?

Kermit: Well, I? Well....I...?

Priest: Do you?

Kermit:(gulp). I do...

Minister: Then because you share a love so bigI now pronounce you frog and pig.

(The KISS.)

Celebration, cheering from all the Muppets. Penguins evidently are tossed or throw themselves into the air.)

Kermit: What better way could anything end?Hand in hand with a friend.

FIN (get it?)
