Wow! These are beutiful! These are just as strong and powerful as those at a church wedding! Thank you for writing these!
Faults doesnt fit in......

These vows are nice but the faults part is what throws me off, its as if we were supposed to say them. Its weddings not confessions.

I have been practising these for a month and they still make me cry. I can't wait to say them to my H2B they say excatly what I want to say to him. Hope I'm word perfect on the day!

What's with all the faults business? A bit more positive would be nice.

Faults
Name: Jennifer2011-05-31
I like that it includes faults because no one is perfect. In a marriage there will be good times and bad times.
wow

What a perfect way to say what the devotion of marriage means without being all sappy and flowery. Most vows seem so trite, contrived, and frankly- meaningless and insincere- just a bunch of words. This is true and honest.

it's obvious that everyone has faults. or maybe lyla, you don't, but the others do.
It Rings True
Name: Nina2007-11-26
This is a very simple and meaningful vow. It has utter clarity and conveys just the right amount of emotion without being sappy. If one doesnt care for a word, such as 'faults', the word 'weaknesses'could be used instead. This is just a beautiful, strong vow. I think any groom would appreciate its simplicity.

This is way to complicated. Need something short & simple. Straight forward but meaningful.
lighten up
Name: Beccy Boo2007-12-28
Everyone has their faults. You can be nieve and ignore that, but its true. And saying in your weddings vows that you will love and adore that person even with their faults is beautiful! My husband has his faults, as do i and we both said in our vows (and everyday) that despite these, we will love each other forever.

We said these vows at our ceremony on February 2, 2008 and they were perfect. Everyone thought they were so meaningful.... which they are!
Faults
Name: Jan Koszuta2008-03-16
Anyone who thinks they or their intended doesn't have faults is getting married too soon!
from peru
Name: Kim2008-08-13
I like these because it is realistic. we are all human and have faults, which should definitely be recognized before getting married otherwise you set yourself up for divorce! The wedding vows that they gave me for the Civil ceremony in Peru, promise that I will make my husband happy for the rest of his life!! I canīt live up to that
Rubbish
Name: Vicky2009-01-08
How can anyone stand infront of friends and family and say that their husband/wife to be has faults?
I soumds as though they are saying ' I love you even though you have loads of faults, but ill marry you anyway'. It just doesnt sound right!
repetitive a little bit
Name: Debbie2009-03-16
I found it sweet n short but a bit repetitive and as lyla says positive would be nice ;) other than that its alright i suppose im geeting marries march 27th 02009 hope im not blushing through them or laugh through nervousness wish me luck ;)
For Real
Name: John2009-07-02
I disagree, Lyla. I believe these vows are very realistic. no one is perfect. we all have positives & negatives in our human makeup.
nice
Name: Nikki2009-08-24
very nice vows thinking of using them at my wedding
Vows
Name: Julie2009-08-25
I can think of far more beautiful words to say to my H2B than talking about his faults! Surely your wedding vows should be positive!
what...........
Name: Brummie2009-10-14
Lyla...I agree ! Yes we all have faults but no need to pint it out on the happiest day of your life !
ceremony vows

yeah fantastic, exactly what i was looking for
mmm
Name: mylene2009-11-12
Needs to be more positive getting married is much more of a cheerful event than what those vows convey.
re re re faults
Name: becci2009-11-28
yes guys we all have faults... the beauty of marriage is that our beloved still loves and accepts us knowing this
She would hit me
Name: Rick2009-12-10
I can see how telling my wife to be that I take you, with all your faults and strengths...

that would go down about aswell as a poo in a space suit
To Lyla
Name: Laura2010-07-23
You could argue that adding the faults part is positive, not only is it realistic but you're vowing to accept them from the start.
Loving
Name: Beloved2010-09-23
Life is full of faults, more often than strengths, especially in matters concerning relationships. This is really honest and sweet.

Try substituting "weaknesses" for 'faults'. We all have them.
I used some of these for my 30 year vow renewals.
thanks.

Try substituting faults or weaknesses with imperfections.... Not quite as negative sounding..
Perfect Vows
Name: Kim2011-12-18
My husband and I selected these and they were perfect for our wedding and suited our relationship as we have had many ups and downs. Thank you for these vows as we had difficulty writing our own.
