How to Write Personal Vows (That Feel Like You)

Keep it modern, meaningful, and comfortably brief—about 150–250 words.

Simple structure

  1. A gentle opening (“When we met… / From our first trip…”)
  2. What you admire (1–3 specifics)
  3. Promises (3–5 lines)
  4. A closing (“I choose you, today and always”)

Tips

  • Write like you speak—then polish one level up.
  • Skip inside jokes that won’t age well; use one line max if you must.
  • Keep the tempo: short sentences, natural pauses.
  • Practice out loud, twice. Time it (~60–90 seconds).
  • Send me a copy if you’d like feedback.
