(a)

I wish to join my life with yours.

To stand by you and wake in your arms

To be joy to your heart and food to your soul

To work as partners and live as a family

While we grow old together.

I Vow to love, honour, and respect you

To hold you in my heart

But not bind you to my will.

I promise to listen carefully and to speak the truth

To stay with you through struggles and pleasures

All the days of my life.

(b)

I pledge to share my life openly with you.

To speak the truth to you in love.

I promise to honour and tenderly care for you,

To cherish and encourage your own fulfilment as an individual,

For the rest of my life.

(c)

I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before.

I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you,

loving you faithfully through good times and bad,

regardless of the obstacles we may face together.

I give you my hand, my heart and my love, from this day forward for as long as we both shall live.

(d)

I pledge to share my life openly with you.

To speak the truth to you in love.

I promise to honour and tenderly care for you,

To cherish and encourage your own fulfilment as an individual,

For the rest of my life.

(e)

To have and to hold, from this day forward,

For better for worse, for richer for poorer,

In sickness and in health,

To love and to cherish,

For the rest of my life.

(f)

I will try to be a good husband/wife.

I promise to respect you as an individual.

I intend to develop as a person in partnership with you.

I want to love you through good fortune and adversity,

While we both shall live.

(g)

I promise before our family and friends

that I will walk beside you,

support and encourage you,

care for you,

respect and cherish you

and be true and loyal to you in every way.

I will rejoice with you in gladness,

care for you in sadness,

and love you all the days of my life.

(h)

In the Spirit of Love

and before our family and friends,

I call upon the people here present to witness

that I (Groom) take you (Bride)

to be my lawful wedded wife,

to have and to hold,

from this day forward,

for better for worse,

for richer for poorer,

in sickness and in health,

to love and to cherish,

for all the days given us to share.

This is my solemn vow and promise.

(i)

you are the love of my life.

Some people search all their lives for this type of love

Others don’t even think it exists.

This kind of certainty comes but just once in a lifetime

And I want to spend that lifetime with you.
