Can you proof read our written vows ?

[blissfulbride]

We came up with them with the help of other non-traditional vows but im afraid they may be to long or that I ay have left something out. can you please read them out loud and tell what u think .thanks


I love you ( )
and because I do, I want to grow old with you for the rest of my life.
I will share in your dreams, and support you as you strive to achieve your goals.
I will listen to you with compassion and understanding,
and speak to you with encouragement.
I''lll help you when you need it, and step aside when you don''t.
I promise to always cherish our relationship regardless of the obstacles we will face together
And be willing to face any changes necessary to keep us happy together.
I promise to always be the person, who you can trust and talk to about anything, and the person who will be right by your side.
I look forward to the life we have planned together, and today I take my place as your (husband/wife).
Take this ring as a sign that you are officially all mine.

Very cute! The only thing I would suggest is maybe changing the wording on the highlighted part. It''s throwing me off because it''s a really long sentence. I''d take out the ''togethers'' entirely, or just keep one. I''d keep the one at the end. HTH!

Those are really long vows.

I think the vows are sweet. The only thing that I thought was weird was the very last bit. I don't know why but it sounded kind of creepy to me.

Like there should be a mwahahaha at the end. But could be just me so ignore me if you love it!

Personally, I am not the biggest fan of the last part as well. Just my opinion though.
Great job on writing your own vows! We just used the traditional ones..I would not have known where to start if we did our own.

Personally, the "you are officially all mine" sounds slightly possessive; kinda like impending doom of marriage. I think if you change that wording they would be really great.

I think you did a fantastic job. What sweet vows! FI and I are too chicken to write our own vows. We're not creative people and we're bad at expressing ourselves outside of sarcasm and humor...

As an editor, here's what I'd do...

I love you ( ), and I want to grow old with you for the rest of my life.
I vow to share your dreams and support you as you strive to achieve your goals.
I promise to listen to you with compassion and understanding, and softly speak words of encouragement.
I vow help you when you need it, and acknowledge and withdraw when you don't.
I promise to cherish our relationship, regardless of the obstacles we face together in the future
I vow to face with an open mind and a willing heart, any change necessary to keep us happy together.
I promise to always be the person you can trust and confide in.
I vow to stand by your side as we build our lives and our family.
I look forward to the future we have planned together, and today I take my place as your (husband/wife).

Blissful, I think those are wonderful vows!

Hudson, that is masterful tweaking!

Here are the lines I would tweak a bit further:

I love you ( ), and I want to spend the rest of my life with you and grow old with you.
I promise to cherish our relationship, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. (I wouldn't add "in the future" as it seem redundant.)

 

[honey22]

Just gorgeous, and now perfect with those slight changes. I like having the longer vows, this is what the whole freakin shebang is about!!! You want to put emphasis on the important bit! Beautiful!
