If they are asking a friend rather than hiring a dj--they are not wanting a full performance from you.
You'd annouce to the family when the wedding party is arriving. Annouce the parents of the bride first, parents of the groom next. The groomsmen, the bridemaids (i chose just to introduce "the groomsmen" and "the bridesmaids" but many couples have them introduced by couples. This way you can have them introduced the way they walked back up the aisle. But they could also be introduced individually--ask the Bride and Groom) And finally with much ado--the new Mr and Mrs ___ ____. You may annouce "the couple will now take the floor for the first dance." and find out any other special dances (father/ stepfather-daughter, mother-son, any others).
Are they doing toasts? It's nice to annouce the MOH and Best Man are now going to give toasts to the couple.
Later on annouce the cake cutting, bouquet toss, garter toss (and plead with the single people in the audience to come to the dancefloor).
Usually the reason couples don't hire a dj is b/c they don't like the script that djs do--all the games with couple thats been married the longest, best dancer, hokie pokie, etc. But definitely when you are getting close to the wedding--sit down with the bride and groom and figure out exactly how to introduce everyone and anything unique that you may need to know (she'll do a father-daughter dance with her real dad and her step dad. She has decided to show a slide show of pictures of her dad who passed away during the traditional father-daughter dance) Those are unique to each bride so you definitely need to talk to the bride to find out any unique things she is adding to her own wedding.

Can't really give you a 'sample' because each reception is different. Have a sit-down with the bride and groom and find out what sorts of things they want you to include in the reception program.
Normally, you would call everyone to order, to be seated. Introduce yourself as the Mistress of Ceremonies for the program, then next would probably be to call the Minister to say Grace before the meal. If it's a buffet meal, you would announce that, saying the staff will let each table know when they will be called up.
When the meal is almost over, you would resume the program - do the introduction of the head table guests, family members, people from out of town - whatever was decided upon. Call the people to do whatever toasts have been arranged to be done, and whomever else will be speaking. The bride and groom speak last. Then you would make the last announcements of the evening - when the cake cutting will be, when the dance will start, and anything else...
Good luck and have fun with it! Just no off-colour jokes!

Hello,
You might be interested in my book. It's called "The Wedding MC: A Complete Guide to Success for the Master of Ceremonies" -- Author, Tom Haibeck.
I've now sold over 100,000 copies worldwide, and Regis Philbin himself used it to prepare for his own daughter's wedding (and liked it so much, he featured the book on his show). It's also recommended by wedding planners, DJs and other wedding professionals -- including the Association for Wedding Professionals International.
You can buy it directly from my website at WeddingToasts.com (click on the upper right hand corner of the menu bar where you see "Click Here for The Wedding MC Book"). You can also buy it through Amazon.com or at most major bookstores. Cost is roughly $10 to $15, depending where you buy it.
If you have any difficulties finding it, feel free to e-mail me: tom@haibeck.com.
Here's to your success!
Tom Haibeck

i know the first part is .......
Dearly Beloved, we are gathered here today in the presence of these witnesses, to join ___________ and ___________ in matrimony, which is commended to be honorable among all men; and therefore – is not by any – to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly – but reverently, discreetly, advisedly and solemnly. Into this holy estate these two persons present now come to be joined. If any person can show just cause why they may not be joined together – let them speak now or forever hold their peace.
....sorry dunno wats after that
