Tips for Writing
Your Own Vows:

1.  Look at traditional and
non-traditional vows.  Decide
what elements you like and
what you don't like.

2.  Ask yourselves what
marriage means to you and
then what marriage vows mean
to you.  Remember that vows
are commitments that you are
making to one another.

3.  Think about what unique
promises or honoring words
you would like to include in
writing your vows.

4.  Decide whether you will
each make the same vows to
each other or unique vows to
one another.

5.  Now, put those elements
together in a "rough draft" .

6.  Read the vows out loud.  
This will help you to adjust the
wording to best reflect your
intent.

7.  Do it your way!  Ignore advice
that says that you should keep
your vows short.  Make them as
you want them whether that is
short, medium, or "long".  

8.  If you need help getting
started or finishing writing your
vows, ask your officiant for help.
