I haven't ACTUALLY started writing my vows yet, I am wonderful at writing, but Im just unsure what I should say in the vows.
Can you ladies help me, and if possible post your vows so that I can get an idea?!?!
THANKS!

I haven't written mine yet, since the wedding isn't until March, but I'm incapable of really saying anything too sappy. It's just not in my nature, it comes off sounding fake and forced.
Sooo, I've decided that my vows will be a top ten list of the most random reasons I love him - like the fact that he has a limited list of like 4 random songs that he sings in the shower at the top of his lungs. Stuff like that.

Haha... well, you know I didn't write my vows until 30 minutes before the ceremony! We did alternating lines, and it was perfect. Short, sweet, and to the point. Here they are:
DH: I, Kevin, choose you, Kristina
ME: I, Kristina, choose you, Kevin
DH: to love you,
ME: to hold you close,
DH: to listen deeply when you speak,
ME: to nourish you with my gentleness,
DH: to uphold you with my strength.
ME: You are my best friend.
DH: You are the one I choose to spend my life with.

i wrote our entire ceremony from bits and pieces that we had found online. We didn't really write our own vows. This is the vow part but if you would like to see the whole ceremony I will share it with you!
Matthew, will you receive Andrea as your wife? Will you pledge to her your love, faith tenderness, cherishing her with a husband’s loyalty and tenderness?
I will
Andrea, will you receive Matthew as your husband? Will you pledge to him your love, faith tenderness, cherishing her with a wife’s loyalty and tenderness?
I will
Matthew and Andrea, receive each other from you fathers and mothers, who give you into each other’s keeping, by saying now, each to the other, words which will tell love.
I, Matthew, take you, Andrea, to be my wife. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, sickness and in health. I will love and honor you all the days of my life.

The wedding ring is a symbol of eternity. It is an outward sign of an inward and spiritual bond which unties two hearts in endless love. And now as a token of you love and of your deep desire to be forever united in heart and soul, you Matthew, may place a ring on the finger of your bride.
Andrea, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness to you.
By the same token, Andrea, you may place a ring on the finger of your groom.
Matthew, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness to you.

Just write how you feel.
to me writing your own vowes means that they are coming from you, from your heart. just write what you think.
Im writing mine the day before..(im a natural writer)
Good luck with it hun
