Hi everyone!

I heard these vows in a wedding video and really like them. Does anyone know where they came from so I can find the full versions?

From what I could hear, it went something like this:

Groom“I give you my life this day. In the presence of god and according to his will, I leave my father and mother and now cleave to you….” “I will love you, as Christ loves the Church. Giving my life for yours, I will lead and protect you, as we share our life with God, who gave us one another Bride“According to the will of God and my desire, I give myself to you. To be your wife, and your friend, and to stand by you always as we share our life together. Leaving my Father and Mother, I now commit myself to you….”

Thank you!

    Man:  I give you my life this day in the presence of God and according to His will. I leave my father and mother and I'll cleave to you.

    I will love you as Christ loves the church, giving my life to yours. I will lead and protect you, as we share our life with God, who gave us one another.

    Wife: According to the will of God and my desire, I give myself to you. To be your wife and your friend and to stand by you as we share our life together. Leaving my father and mother, I now commit myself to you.

    I love you and believe in your from this day forward.

    Also, this blog has a different version.  http://lillypearlsandcurls.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

    You can mix and match, as I am sure if you transcribe from the video (which is the most adorable wedding video EVER) it won't even be quite the same as they said them that day, as there is no real way to know the order they said the phrases...
