vows?

So instead of studying for my pharmacy board exam I've decided to start writing my vows.. and now i'm having a block. I know how i feel I just can't make it sound good on paper... I know some ladies wrote their own vows.. if you don't mind sharing I would love to hear them. I PROMISE to not plagiarise! just need some inspiration. ::sigh:: TIA

    Hey girl! I can't wait to watch the video you posted sadly I'm still at work and can't wait videos here =)K so don't laugh it's cheesy be proud of me I actually memorized them but mainly bc everyone told me I couldn't lol.  I ended up tearing up in the beginning then pulled it together only bc I was determined to recite what I memorized lol. I look at you and I see my best friendThank you for loving me as I amI no longer fear being myselfYou make me happier than I could ever imaginedAnd more loved then I ever thought possibleYou provide a safe place for me unlike I've never known And give me strength when I feel as if I have nothing left.I love you for your patience, intelligence, kindness, sense of humor and the way you always know how to make me feel better.I consider it a privilege and an honor to be the person you've chosen to spend you life with.I promise to always appreciate how lucky I am to have you in my life.And I vow to try as hard as I can to make you feel as special as you make me feel each day.I thank God everyday for bringing you into my life.You are all I need and ever wanted.Today my prayers have been answeredToday I join my life w/ yoursIn your arms I've found my homeIn your soul I've found my mateYou are the only other half that makes me whole.I might be missing a line or two but that's what my memory can recall sorry for any misspelling on iphone lol still learning how to type. Best of luck! It's coming so quickly!

    Ditto what Beth said.  I LOVE this thread.  I even teared up reading the vows.  They are so, so heartfelt...

    Hey girl! Thx for the kind compliment. Hubby teared up while I was saying the vows. The dork I am I teared up and got choke up when I said "I no longer fear being myself."So what I did was look up vows online to get ideas of other's vows. At least three of the lines (fragments) are borrowed from the vows I saw online but tweaked by a few words ya know so I could make it pertain to me and Hubby.By reading example vows it helped me think of how to say things concisely. Like I'd look at example formats then make my own sentence/fragment that pertained to us. I was having  real hard time keeping my sentences short til i looked at example vows. I got the last last line from a verse I heard in a song once and I love that song so I wanted to add it in. I literally teared up writing the vows guess it's cause they are things i've always wanted to say and finally took the time to pen it all down so the tears were flowing. But girl practicing memorizing my eyes swelled up cause I cried nonstop the first 6 times I recited it. But after I practiced more and more I became numb to it LOL. So i totally thought I wouldn't cry the day off. But and behold once I said "I no longer fear being myself.." it was all over. I'm a dork!Best of luck!!
