In Rest They Remember It All funeral readingNature’s wonders 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
So here we are together in front of friends and family, about to take a leap of faith together. Two Leos who share a love of these mountains and love nothing more than discovering nature’s wonders.
You are one of nature’s wonders. Your care for community and compassion for all you meet. Your love for me, your kids, friends and family. Your ability to do things that most of us only think about. And your smile and fabulous eyebrows. You are extraordinary.
I am so excited to be your husband, to call you my wife. I promise to take our partnership to the next level. To support and care for you. To grow older together. To love you.
So let’s continue our grand adventure; be my beautiful wife
Party 2
Early on… (maybe a little too early) you took a leap of faith on me. You wrote me a heartfelt letter we have nicknamed ‘The Diatribe’. So full of intention and commitment. I handled it with absolute grace and emotional maturity! I completely freaked out! It scared me because it was real. Because you were real. And what I see now is that you weren’t rushing me. You were choosing me. Boldly, calmly… a man with a plan.
So today, I’m choosing you just as boldly. I promise to take leaps of faith with you. I promise not to run from something beautiful just because it feels big. I promise that when things feel overwhelming, I won’t freak out, I’ll lean in. What we’ve built has grown quietly and steadily…and it has grown strong.
I promise to protect what we’ve built. To speak gently. To fight for us, not against you. To stand beside you in the calm and in the storm. And this time, I’m not afraid of the leap because I know I’m jumping with you.
