Traditional Wedding Vows

Have you chosen your wedding vows yet? It is a big decision for many couples and often one that gets put off until the last minute.

If you are unsure about what you want to say, or are very uncomfortable with writing your vows yourself, traditional wedding vows  may be the best choice for your wedding.

Traditional wedding vows are classic and elegant.

Here are some samples of traditional wedding vows:

1. I (___) take thee (____) to be my lawfully 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 till death do us part.

2. I (name) take you (name) to be my beloved (wife/husband), to have and to hold you, to honor you to treasure you, to be at your side in sorrow and in joy, in the good times and in the bad, to love and cherish you always. I promise you this from my heart, for all the days of my life.

Remember, these are your wedding vows! If you are going to say these vows and mean them, you should certainly be comfortable with  what you are saying as well as the meaning of each and every word. You can personalize traditional wedding vows to make your ceremony unique. Just make slight changes, yet still maintain the traditional and memorable expressions.
