There are not enough words
to tell you the depth of my love for you.
There is not enough time
to show you in a lifetime.
I would need an eternity & beyond.
You complete me in ways
no one else ever has.
I adore how you kiss away my tears,
settle my fears,
& temper my outbursts of anger.
I promise to you that
I will always take time
to tell you I love you
& not get lost in the busy days
of an ordinary life
& I promise not to miss out
on this extraordinary love.
I love you and pledge myself to you
for as long as you’ll have me.
My heart is yours forever.

Thank you for entering my contest. Your vows are beautiful and exactly what I would want to be saying to someone I love on the most important day of our lives.

Thank you for your kind comment. And for the silver trophy. It's appreciated.
The hard part was crying through them. My husband and I both wrote our own vows, as well as having the traditional, and when he read his first, he started crying which in turn started me crying. It was a beautiful day.

final edit
you would have placed in the top three, but it is a pre-write, these were to be new,
i know this is not fair probally but you wrote thes as vows for your wedding not fair to those that did not.
i thought these are vows i would want to receive.

-
your like not smart are you?? if ya want wedding vows to yourself get married
-
Actually It was NOT a prewrite since I never Posted it here. So theoretically it isn't since I only shared these at my wedding. But I understand where you're coming from. Good luck to all others.
