Your wedding vows represent a very important part of the function. Some might say the vows are at the center of everything. After all, when you recite those vows, you are giving life to the commitment you are making to your partner. While traditional vows are quite fine, many couples today have opted to write their own vows for a more unique wedding experience. But writing your own wedding vows can be challenging, unless you are already a gifted wordsmith.
Original personalized wedding vows represent the uniqueness of your love story while helping to showcase your very own couple style. It also adds more sentimental attachment to the occasion.
You don’t have to be super creative to write personalized vows. You can get the help of professional vow writers who will work with you to come up with unique vows that truly reflect your own personal love story.
Include the meeting. Spend a few seconds reminiscing on the moment you laid eyes on each other. If the meeting oozed romance you have nothing to worry about. But if is was on the less exciting side of things your vow writing assistant can help you to spice it up (perhaps by highlighting the emotions you felt and the thoughts that went through your mind at the time). If at first meeting you weren’t that into each other you can play on that turnaround as well.
Don’t be shy about using a cute nickname you’ve given your spouse. Ensure that is a name that hints at your affection for your partner but make sure it is not embarrassing or too sexual. It will add to the uniqueness of the vows and elicit admiration and perhaps amusement, from your guests. There is such a thing as too much sharing though, so don’t go too far with the sharing of things you keep between you. This is why you should avoid inside jokes (especially since only you and your partner will really get it).
Be sure to include the many reasons you are so in love. Highlight some of the best features you find in your partner and explain how your lover’s actions and responses make you feel. You should also include your expectations for the future with your newly wedded partner.
Keep your writing natural. It should flow like your regular conversations do. You can try reading it out loud while recording yourself and then playing it back to see how you sound. Avoid words and phrases that are difficult for you to pronounce.
