MARRIAGE VOWS

Couples are welcome to use any of the standardized vows included below (or combination thereof), or even to write their own vows for their ceremony. If couples do choose to write their own vows, they will be asked to read them to each other during the ceremony. Standard vows can be read to each other, or used in a “repeat after me” format.

Thinking of writing your own personalized vows? Here is a great article from to read ahead of time: The Ultimate Guide to Writing Your Own Wedding Vows.
