Unforgettable Wedding Vows

Fun Vows


You are my husband/wife. My feet shall run because of you. My feet shall dance because of you. My heart shall beat because of you. My eyes see because of you. My mind thinks because of you. And I shall love because of you.


I want us to grow old and crusty together, to shake our collective fists at teenagers, and to talk endlessly about the old days when things were better, cheaper, and generally more wholesome.


I take you to be my lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, until death do we part or you turn into a zombie. Because then we're going to have to start seeing other people.



Once I take your hand, I promise I'll never let you go - our clothes will have to be specially made - but it’ll be worth it.


I vow to be your spell checker, grammar friend, and tell you when things need hyphens. I promise to be your partner in exercise, even if I am much faster than you, and most of all, I promise to try things, even though I am sure I will not like them, just because you say, "try this”.


I vow not to take any of your less pleasing habits personally, even though I really wish you would put the keys back on the key hook, and not leave your shoes in the middle of the hallway, and I love you.


I vow to laugh, for real, at your every joke no matter how stupid or poorly told. I love you that much.



Let's be dumb together - just plain stupid. Make bad choices, eat the wrong things, take the bad turns, and then let's tell great stories, the same ones - for ever and ever until no one can stand us but each other.


Dr Seuss Type Vows

I would marry you in a boat and with a goat. I would marry you in the rain and in the dark and on a train. And in a car and in a tree, you are so good - so good to me. So I will love you in a box and I will love you (you're a fox) and I will love you in our house even if it has a mouse, and I will love you here or there. I promise to love you anywhere.


Let's forget when to shut up, forget being polite, let's be that couple, those people, and have the time of our lives until we drop dead.


A pair of penguins mate for life, across hundreds of miles of tundra, the female penguin travels to bring food to the male, as he watches the egg over a month of sub-zero temperatures. As your husband, I promise never to ask you to do anything like that

Movie vows


From ‘Friends’

Monica and Chandler:

Monica: For so long I wondered if I would ever find my prince, my soulmate. Then three years ago, at another wedding, I turned to a friend for comfort. And instead, I found everything that I'd ever been looking for my whole life. And now here we are, with our future before us, and I only want to spend it with you, my prince, my soulmate, my friend. Unless you don't want to. You go!

Chandler: I thought this was going to be the most difficult thing I ever had to do. But when I saw you walking down the aisle, I realised how simple it was. I love you. You are the person I was meant to spend the rest of my life with.


From ‘Friends’

Phoebe and Mike:

Phoebe: When I was growing up, I didn't have a normal mom and dad, or a regular family like everybody else, and I always knew that something was missing. But now I'm standing here today, knowing that I have everything I'm ever gonna need. You are my family.

Mike: Phoebe, you are so beautiful. You're so kind, you're so generous, you're so wonderfully weird. Every day with you is an adventure. I can't believe how lucky I am, and I can't wait to share my life with you forever.

Phoebe: Oh wait, I forgot! And, um...I love you. And you have nice eyes.

Mike: I love you, too.


From ‘Silver Linings Playbook’

I love you, I knew it the minute I met you. I’m sorry it took so long for me to catch up, I just got stuck.


From ‘Chasing Amy’

I love you. Very simple. Very truly. You are the epitome of everything I have ever looked for in another human being. There isn’t another soul on this planet who has ever made me half the person I am when I’m with you. I am forever changed because of who you are and what you’ve meant to me.


From ‘The Wedding Singer’

 I wanna make you smile whenever you’re sad, carry you around when your arthritis is bad, all I wanna do is grow old with you. I’ll get your medicine when your tummy aches, build you a fire if the furnace breaks, oh it could be so nice, growing old with you. I’ll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when you are cold. Need you, feed you, even let you hold the remote control. So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink, put you to bed when you’ve had too much to drink, oh I could be the man (woman) who grows old with you, I wanna grow old with you.


From ‘Harry Met Sally’

When you realise you want to spend the rest of your life with someone, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.


From ‘Big Bang Theory’

Leonard and Penny:

Leonard:  Penny, we are made of particles that have existed since the moment the universe began. I like to think those atoms traveled 14 billion years through time and space to create us so that we could be together and make each other whole.

Penny:  Leonard, you're not only the love of my life, you're my best friend. And you've got a friend in me. You got troubles. I got 'em too. There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you. We stick together and we can see it through because you've got a friend in me.


From ‘Big Bang Theory’

Bernadette and Howard:

Bernadette: Like you, this is going to be short and sweet. I love you with all my heart and soul and promise to be with you forever.

Howard: Until I met you, I couldn't imagine spending my life with just one person. And now, I can't imagine spending one day of it without you.
