The worst
Name: Tara	2005-09-01
This is the worst one I have read... I Claim you... that sounds like he or she owns you ... the wording is SO WRONG.

rip off
Name: anna	2005-09-28
This "I claim you" vow came straight out of Christine Feehan's romance novels. Check them out for yourself: Dark Guardian Dark Prince Dark Magic Dark Gold...... they all have this. What a rip off, and how cheesy!!!

Stuff that

This vow is terrible, it sounds like your signing some sort of purchase contract.

Could be viewed differently
Name: Loretta	2006-12-04
My partner and I often joke about when we are married how we will 'own' the other. I could change the word 'claim' to 'own' to individualise our vows in adding some humor to them, as we both intend to add a little humor to our vows.

Horrible yet funny

Wow, I didn't know that wedding vows could be bother frighteningly creepy and hilarious, until reading this little ditty. uck!

right on
Name: mofo	2007-01-06
i think these vows apitimise marriage like the sacred custodian of the lost and found at a train station

stunning
Name: peggy	2007-08-29
these vows are very stunning and memrable. they are given by a man and women who truly understand the strong bound between man and women the way it should be. given so freely and so compleately that no other can ever touch and that is owning and loving.

Perfect..

I like it quite a bit also, for the same reasons as Chase. I might alter it to fit into that a bit more.. but.. this is great!

Cool

This is exactly what I was looking for. When I read them, I fell in love with those words. They have special meaning because they basically say that the reason why you are marrying this person, is because you cherish them just a little more than yourself, and that you hold them in high regard. That you love them just as much or maybe more than yourself. That to me, means something.

terrible
Name: tammy	2007-08-15
it just dont sound like something that you would have at a wedding its really bad and it does have some controlling words in it.

Beautiful
Name: crystal loveless	2007-05-01
This is one of the best today I admire that you feel like that about someone was a sweet thing

Perfect
Name: Chase	2007-05-08
I am a sub and i am marrying my lover , friend and Dom this is perfect for us because he does own me and i am happy to give all i have to him

I like it
Name: Rhiannon	2007-05-15
See, I liked this one. I did recognize it as coming out of Christine Feehan's books, but I don't think it sounds like a business contract. Besides, doesn't it basically say the same thing some modern vows do? "All that I am and all that I have are yours..." Anyway, I like this one.

I am guessing this is a tribute to Christine Feehan

Many people write Christine Feehan and ask if they can use these words in there Wedding as it is mostly from her books, almost word for word. If you read her you would understand how stong and loving it truly is...not anything other than that. She has had hundereds of people ask her to use this and she always looks at it as a compliment. I just thought people would like to know how she stands on this. Thank you for your time.
Best,

I claim my wife
Name: Jeff	2007-06-28
These other reviewers are just obviously ones with drama. I am claiming my wife and she is claiming me. We like that fact. Jesus, get over your drama.

This is PERFECT
Name: Abra	2007-09-29
I've been looking for vows just like this forever. We're going to use them in our ceremony. Thank you!

It is romantic.
Name: Leatrice	2007-11-04
I quite like the intensity of claiming love. It is like the couple's feelings are so strong that they demand the right to meld and merge together for all eternity; it's much better than an "until death" vow. FYI---A vow is stronger than a purchase contract.

Very Good
Name: Shawnta	2008-01-19
I can understand why some do not get this, mostly because they do not know where it is coming from. They need to catch up on thier Bible to understand it. For those who would like to; To Claim is to make it so. When you claim something it make it so in God's eyes. LEARN WHAT YOUR READING BEFORE YOU COMMENT!!!!!!!!!

I have to agree
Name: Ashley	2008-01-21
I have to agree with all the other comments. The vow is far too cro-magnum man to be in any way romantic or endearing. DO OVER. Or perhaps he's marrying a horse or a goat or something or something, in which case this should be filed under "multicultural vows."

To each their own
Name: Sallysue	2008-02-14
I really do think that everyone will view this differently because we are all entitled to our own opinions. So to me I believe these to be great vows due to the simple fact that my fiance tells me constantly that he loves me with all of his heart body and soul. Thanks, Sally

Wow...
Name: Nothing	2008-03-10
Bound to me for all eternity? Whoa! Why does that sound crazy? We'll be bound for our earthly life, but after that, who knows? It was hard enough to get past "I claim you..." I almost fell out of my chair...

works in a BDSM context

Not so much for a traditional wedding, but great for alternative Lifestylers.

perfect

First and formost the rest of you who don't like this are obviously not big readers. It's a great tribute to the love and emotions that Christine Feehan write about. This vow is perfect! It's beautiful and talks about a love that most people don't understand and don't feel. My fiance and I have our rings engraved with "For all eternity" so to have these vows saying it as well just makes it even better. I truly love this saying. It is also a woman saying she is claiming a man so it's not just about the man claiming the woman. Jesus people!
