Forever and ever wedding vows
Here’s the next set of awesome wedding vows in my series of amazing (de-identified) vows from one of my beautiful couples!
Some of my couples have written such incredible words of love and promise, and I thought they’d act as great inspiration for other couples who have no idea where to start when writing their own vows. While I provide all my couples with a vow pack that contains questions to get you started and loads of individual sentences that can be put together to create vows (and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that), the vows in this series all include the kind of personal touches that I think make wedding vows beautiful and genuine. To me, the most successful vows are personal, from the heart, and written in language the speaker would use in their everyday life.
Also remember: the word vow means promise. While we all love hearing all the reasons you love your partner, your vows are your chance to tell your partner all the things you are promising them for your lives together into the future. Don’t forget the promises!
A reminder: these vows are published to inspire you and provide you with some ideas for writing your vows. They’re not here so you can copy them word for word!
Also remember these don’t include the legally required vows – those words generally go at the start of these ones.
Party 1
My love, my soul mate, my best friend. The day I met you in Wonthaggi I truly did find a diamond in the rough! You are one of a kind. You have brought me happiness, shown me love, cared for me and put up with me for the past four years of our lives! From the very first time we met, you changed my whole life for the better. You have taught me to love, laugh, sing and even write poems, of which I would like to share this poem which I wrote for you during our first year of being together:
One day at gym, you caught my eye,
You ignored my call when I yelled out hi!
Until we met through random fate,
I decided to kiss you on our very first date!
I knew this was it, I had no doubt,
but you had no idea that I had asked you out!
Our love was strong from the very start,
you always have a way of melting my heart.
Although I may be away in Moranbah,
you’re a part of my soul so you’re never that far.
You’re my little bug bug for now and forever,
I cannot wait for us to grow old together.
You are the one I want to share the rest of my life,
and I promise that one day I will make you my wife!
I give you all that I am and all that I will become. I promise to be true to you, to support and encourage you and to always ensure there is a bucket of hummus waiting for you in the fridge on any given day. I vow to love, cherish, care and be faithful to you until the day we die (which will be at the same time, in the same place with you in my arms). And finally, I promise to love you in good times and in bad, with all I have to give and all I feel inside, in the only way I know how … completely and forever as your husband forever and ever.
Party 2
You are my best friend, my soul mate and the one I choose to spend the rest of my life with. From the moment you caught my eye it was love at first sight; your beautiful smile, caring nature, everlasting love all captured me and I knew that I had found my one true love.
I promise to always be there for you, support you, always make you laugh and forever love you. I love that you and I will spend the rest of our lives together. Somehow my life has come to this amazing moment and now I will always share it with you.
I look forward to what the future holds in store for us: growing a family together in a home full of love, laughter and joy, travelling the world together, and enjoying every moment by each other’s side. You are my one true love and I couldn’t imagine conquering life’s challenges with anyone besides you.
There is no day that you don’t bring a smile to my face or make me laugh! You are the most caring, supporting, loving, determined, kind person I know that always finds a way to make my day brighter. I can’t begin to describe the way you make me feel and even to this day, four years since we met, you still give me butterflies when you walk into the room.
I feel like the luckiest lady in the world to have found such an amazing person to spend the rest of my life with and grow old together.
I have to catch my breath to believe this is real, that I am marrying the man of my dreams, my best friend!
