Non-traditional wedding vows let you write promises that actually fit your relationship. Here are five examples and how to write your own.
1. The partnership vow
“I promise to be your partner in everything — the big adventures and the quiet nights. I choose you, today and every day after.”
2. The growing vow
“I promise to grow with you, to let you change, and to keep falling for every version of you that is still coming.”
3. The honest vow
“I rewrote these nine times. The hard part was never the words — it was finding someone worth saying them to. I love you. That is the whole thing.”
4. The list-of-small-things vow
“I promise to love your weird habits, to remember your coffee order, and to always be on your team.”
5. The rewrite of traditional
“I take you to be my partner — in the big moments and the small ones. For better or for worse, I choose you.”
How to write yours
Skip the template. Write what you would actually say to your partner at 2am. That is the vow.
