Your ceremony should be a reflection of the two of you and your love for each other. You are welcome to write vows of your own that are personal and meaningful to you both. Some couples prefer the standards and others simply want to just say “I do”. We’ve listed a few sample vows below to perhaps stimulate your imagination and you are also welcome to select one for your ceremony. Please let us know a week before your wedding date the vows you would like to say to each other and anything special that you would like to incorporate into the ceremony
