Between the marriage rites of your wedding celebrant and the exchange of your rings, you can declare your love for each other and make vows for your future in front of your families and friends.
Discuss the length with each other and/or your wedding celebrant—this prevents an imbalance.
Your own words are the most beautiful: listen to your heart. What makes the other person(s) so special?
It doesn't have to be serious—laughter should be part of every wedding!
Write your vows down—preferably on paper.
Enjoy the moment! This moment is about you, your love, your shared future.
Your wedding vows can be a very special moment for you—and your guests! But they should feel right for you. If you would rather sing a song, dance, or do nothing*: that is the right decision. Your wedding is your day and you should plan this day in a way that it reflects you and your relationship.
*You could also do a clown performance. But I would rather excuse myself for that.
