Best Marriage Vows for Your Inspiration

Would you love to write your own vows?

But are you unsure how to do it?

These beautiful marriage vows might inspire you!

Do you both want original vows?

But first things first.

You might have been dreaming about your wedding and the accompanying vows for years and years. But has your partner as well?

It is time to talk to your partner about the possibility of writing your own vows. Of course there is nothing wrong with traditional vows, but if you are going to do it yourself then both of you will need to write vows.

Writing vows: where to start

It is important that vows come straight from the heart. It sounds clichéd, but your guests will hear if you have had trouble writing the vows. Everything you say should be sincere and genuine. Do not stuff your vows with all kinds of clichéd love quotes, but instead, make your vows unique and one-of-a-kind.

It can be hard to come up with something unique and loving for your partner. Especially if writing has never been your strong suit. Writing a wedding vow is not something that you simply just do. It requires a considerate amount of time and thought.

Ideas for your wedding vows might pop up unexpected, so be sure to have a piece of paper or note taking app at the ready so you can write down new ideas. Once you have some ideas on what your vow is going to look like, start writing. Just write for the sole purpose of writing. Your wedding vow will probably not be 100% to your liking the first try anyway. Just get your ideas out of your head, and onto paper.

Still having trouble? Let’s take a look at some of the most heartwarming marriage vows you will ever read.
