Many adventures 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
A set of words…
When you love someone, love them completely
Without conditions
Without constraints
To be yourself with them, silly or serious, and to cherish them for all that they are
To celebrate diversity
And celebrate two worlds becoming one
These are my feelings and vows to you
To be with you always, within your heart, mind and soul
To lift you up, to encourage you to shine
To always be a source of strength, and your centre
To declare to you and to all those here that I care and love
That my heart sings at the thought of you
That I love my life with you and cannot contemplate being apart
Not even for a night
That you inspire me, challenge me, enliven me
That you are my world, my joyous life, my beautiful love
And it will always be thus.
Party 2
I choose you and I promise
To stand by your side and sleep in your arms.
To be joy to your heart and food for your soul.
To learn with you and grow with you, even as time and life changes us both.
I promise to laugh with you every day.
To be your lover, companion and a true and loyal friend.
I will be your ally in conflict.
I will be your greatest fan and your toughest adversary.
I promise to respect you and cherish you as an individual, a partner, and an equal, knowing that we do not complete, but complement each other.
I will value our differences as much as our common ground.
I promise to hold your hand every night and to never let us lose our spark.
Finally, I promise to be myself.
I cherish our attitude toward finding adventure in life.
May we have many adventures and grow old together.
