For as long as we both shall Live.

to inspire and to respond;
a commitment made in love, kept in faith,
and eternally made new.

You are my best friend for life.
I pledge to honor, encourage, and
support you through our walk together.
When our way becomes difficult,
I promise to stand by you and uplift you,

always make you a priority in my life.
With every beat of my heart,
I will love you.
This is my solemn vow.

Amen.

All that I am and all that I have,
I offer to you in love and in joy.
From this day forward I will
love and comfort you, hold you close,
prize you above all others,
and remain faithful to you
all the days of our lives.

I, <bride/groom>, take you, <bride/groom>
