Your Vows
This is often the most challenging part to write.
Start by asking yourselves some questions -
1. What are the three wonderful things about the one you are about to marry?
2. What does marriage mean to you?
3. What promises do you want to make?
4. What are the most important things to you in a relationship, in your opinion?
5. What would you like to declare to your partner in front of your family and friends?
6. Why do you love your partner?
Just to help here are some samples of vows:
Wedding Vow 1
I _________take you,__________, to be my lawful wedded husband/wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, while we both shall live.
Wedding Vow 2
I__________take you, __________, to be my lawful wedded husband/wife. I want to be with you always just as you are. I choose you above all others, to share my life with me in marriage. I love you for yourself, and I want you to become all that you can e. I promise to honour this pledge as long as I live.
Wedding Vow 3
I __________take you,__________, to be my lawful wedded husband/wife. I feel so proud to be your husband/wife. Having you beside me makes me glow. With all your tenderness, support and strength, knowing I can lean if I need to.
You have given me so much. I love your quietness. I love your stillness. I love your smile. I love the way you love me. Just the way I've always wanted to be loved. You encourage my growth. You listen and support me as no one else can. Today, the first day of the rest of our lives, I commit myself to you.
Wedding Vow 4
I__________take you,___________, to be my lawful wedded husband/wife.
I love you.
You are my best friend.
Today I give myself to you in marriage.
I promise to encourage and inspire you, to laugh with you,
and to comfort you in times of sorrow and struggle.
I promise to love you in good times and in bad,
when life seems easy and when it seems hard,
when our love is simple and when it is an effort.
I promise to cherish you, and to always hold you in highest regard.
These thing I give you today, and all the days of our life.
