Interfaith wedding vows let you honor two traditions in one promise. Here is how to write them with care.
Talk first
Before writing, talk about what each tradition requires and what is optional. Some faiths have wording that must be included; some do not.
What to include
- The shared promise (love, partnership, commitment)
- An element from each tradition — a phrase, a promise, or a blessing
- Your own words, so the vow still sounds like you
Interfaith wedding vow example
“I promise to love you in the way my faith teaches and to honor yours as my own. I choose you, and I choose to build a life that holds both of us.”
Keep it yours
The traditions give the vow its roots; your words give it its life. Both matter.
