ALL ABOUT WEDDING VOWS:
WEDDING VOWS:
 |
Wedding Vows are a legal
statement that affirms your desire to take a particular person as your spouse.
Dr. Janine presents them and you are required to
give a verbal response to them. She will gladly provide vows and
customize them for you, or she will coach you in creating your own vows. |
HOW TO WRITE WEDDING VOWS:
Begin by writing down your thoughts and feelings about the commitment you are making in marriage. What are you promising? What is your intention? Think about dedication, loyalty, devotion, and faithfulness and what they mean to you. Write down whatever thoughts and phrases come to your mind. Don't censor anything at this point and take your time in this process. Next review your ideas and highlight those most important to you. Begin to combine them with one of the following phrases: "I Vow," "I pledge," I promise," or "I commit." How do they sound? How do they feel when you say them? The process is complete when you say your vows and they flow and feel just right.
SUGGESTED WAYS OF GIVING YOUR VOWS:
- Most often, the vows are given by
repeating after the Official. She will use
short phrases to make it comfortable for the one repeating their vows.
- Vows can be read from a
beautifully decorated (small) piece of paper
- Combine a Responsive vow with any
of the other kind of vow.

GLOSSARY OF WEDDING VOWS:
PERSONAL VOWS:
Each of you writes your own statement of vows.
Your Official can easily assist you in this process.
These vows are usually different from one another.
TRADITIONAL VOWS: An example of these time honored vows is: “I
take you to be my lawfully wedded wife/husband, and I pledge to be loving and faithful,
for better or for worse, in sickness and in health, until death do we part.”
CONTEMPORARY VOWS: These vows use contemporary language such as:
“I promise to honor and tenderly care for you, to cherish and encourage your
fulfillment as an individual through all the changes of our lives.”
RESPONSIVE VOWS:
With these vows, the Official makes a statement of your intention asking if you
agree with it. You then respond by saying
either: I do; I will or I promise.
FROM THE HEART VOWS: These vows are unplanned and unrehearsed. You declare your intentions and give your vows
based upon your feelings in the moment
SPIRITUAL VOWS: The essence of these vows is
sacred in nature since they have a spiritual reference. An example is: “I promise to
encourage and support you in our journey through life.
I love you with an everlasting love. I
accept that our relationship is Divinely Guided.”
