If you’re stuck on what to say, take a look at these wedding vow examples for every type of couple.

Traditional Vows

“I, (name), take you, (name), to be my (wife/husband), to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part, according to God’s holy ordinance; and thereto I give you my troth.”

Modern Vows

“I (name), take you (name), to be no ordinary (wife/husband). I promise to love and cherish you, to laugh with you and cry with you, to grow with you and change with you. I will be patient with you and kind to you. I will always be there for you, through the good times and the bad. I will love you unconditionally, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part.”
