Contemporary Wedding Vows - Free Contemporary wedding vows samples
The wedding vows are promises made by the bride and groom to each other during a wedding ceremony. You can chose to write your own wedding vows, rather than relying on standard wedding vows samples. In Western culture, this pledge has traditionally included the notions of affection (love, comfort, keep), faithfulness (forsaking all others), unconditionality (for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health), and permanence (as long as we both shall live, until death do us part).
I promise to be there when you need me, to fill your days with sunshine, to comfort you and encourage you, to be your best friend everlasting and to love you all my life with all my heart, for so long as we both shall live.

I, (Groom’s/Bride’s name), take you (Bride’s/Groom’s name), to be my wife/husband, my partner in life and my one true love.
Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay.
Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God.

May the Lord do with me and more if anything but death parts you from me.

David:
When was it that we fell in love, when we were 18 or 16, maybe 10? I don’t know ’cause the truth is I can’t picture a time that I wasn’t in love with you. I always knew you were the one that could look into my eyes and see my soul. I don’t question your commitment to us and I know there’s nothing we can’t work through. And I except you as my partner and as my best friend above all others. It’s a miracle to find the kind of peace and happiness that you’ve given me and in honor of that miracle, I pledge before our family and friends to love and to cherish you forever.
Donna:
I look at you and I see my best friend, your energy and your passion inspire me in ways I never thought possible. Your inner beauty, so strong, that I know longer fear being myself. I know longer fear at all. I never thought that I could find someone that I could love that would love me back unconditionally. Then I realize that although we were often apart you were always with me, and you were my soulmate. You give me purpose when I feel I have none. Without you my soul would be empty, my heart broken, my being incomplete. I thank god everyday that you were brought into my life, and I thank you for loving me.
