The Exchange Of Vows: What To Say And How To Personalize Them

The Exchange Of Vows: What To Say And How To Personalize Them

Your wedding vows are the most important part of your wedding ceremony. They are your promises to each other, and they will be a lasting reminder of your love and commitment.

There are a few things to keep in mind when writing your vows:

1. Keep them personal

Your vows should reflect your relationship and your love for each other. They should be something that you both feel comfortable saying, and something that is meaningful to you both.

2. Keep them short

Your vows don’t need to be long, in fact, shorter vows are often more impactful. Keep them to a few sentences, or a paragraph at most.

3. Make them your own

You can use traditional vows as a starting point, but make sure to personalize them to make them your own. Add in your own words, thoughts, and promises.

4. Practice, practice, practice

Make sure you practice your vows before the big day. This will help you to feel more comfortable saying them, and will ensure that you don’t forget what you want to say.

Here are some ideas to get you started:

“I promise to love you, to cherish you, and to always be there for you. I will laugh with you, cry with you, and grow with you. I will support you and encourage you, and I will always be your biggest fan. I will love you unconditionally, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part.”

“I take you to be my husband/wife, my partner in life, and my best friend. I will love and cherish you, and I will always be there for you. I will support you, encourage you, and be your biggest fan. I will love you unconditionally, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part.”

Shadowbox are great for storing life’s precious moments

There are several shadow box ideas that you could choose from whether you want it for a wedding, baby or kids. I personally like shadowboxes. I remember when I first was introduce to them when I worked at a frame shop.
The great thing about a shadowbox frame is that you could put three dimensional items into it or objects that would not normally fit into a frame.They are a good way to store keepsakes.

There are books such as The DIY Bride: 40 Fun Projects for Your Ultimate One-of-a-Kind Wedding for those who like to do crafty projects that would include organizing something that will keep their memory of their big day alive.
Here I will introduce you to some shadow box ideas for storing your wedding or kids memories in.

Shadow box ideas for babies

What better way than store your baby’s memories into a shadow box. You could put booties in them. A baby’s first onesie could go into it. Also you could include different stages of their life that occurred during their first year. The box could include shoes. It could also include the child’s first dress up outfit.

Also as an idea, you could include a collection of baby shoes from the time that the baby was a newborn to 36 months.
Also, you could include things from when your child was born such as your child’s umbilical cord stump into the shadow box.
