How to Write Personal Vows (That Feel Like You)
Keep it modern, meaningful, and comfortably brief—about 150–250 words.
Simple structure
- A gentle opening (“When we met… / From our first trip…”)
- What you admire (1–3 specifics)
- Promises (3–5 lines)
- 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.
