So FI and I met in a poetry class, and we both love to write (mystery/ horror for him, poetry/ fantasy stories for me) so we decided we want to write our own vows.
After a friend's wedding last summer in which they rhymed like Dr Seuss and referenced chores including cleaning the cat box (I kid you not) I am nervous about going overboard into gross/shmoopy/inappropriate territory.
So what's your advice for writing your own vows that are meaningful and don't horrify your guests?
