You are my best friend 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
Ever since the first moment we met you managed to find a way that makes me fall in love with you more. Just when I think I couldn’t love you anymore, today happens!
I love the way you smile. I love the way your laugh is so loud and contagious. I love that you laugh at me, even when I hurt myself. I love the way you look at me with love in your eyes, and the way we manage to wake up holding hands.
Today I vow to spend the rest of our lives together. I promise to be your eyes when you can’t see, your air when you can’t breathe. I promise to be the hand that wipes your tears and the arms that hold you close. I promise to make you smile every day and to make your heart dance with love.
I promise to grow old with you, to be in this for life.
Party 2
I love you.
Today I take you as my partner in life and love. I commit to you; you are the one I dream with and the one I will love forever.
I promise to be true to you, to listen and cherish you, to share my thoughts, hopes and dreams with you. I love that you never correct me when I sing the wrong words to a song until after I have had my moment. I love how you know when I’m excited about food and politely ask me ‘are you going to be long?’ And even though I’m no Beyonce, when it comes to my dance moves I love that you still love dancing with me and it makes my heart skip a beat.
I’m excited to see what we can achieve together, because together we are unstoppable. You are the person I want to fall asleep next too and the first face I want to see when I wake up. I want to grow old with you and share all my days with you.
You are my best friend and I will love you forever.
