How do I write my wedding vows, is one of the most popular questions I get asked. It is a good question and everyone has their own way of writing their vows. Remember your ceremony is a reflection of your individual personality.

While it might seem daunting, there is something so unbelievably powerful about saying words that you’ve personally have written. So you first sit down to craft these magnificent wedding vows, it is not surprising that you get writers block. But don’t worry you do not need to be great at english, a writer or an author you just need to be you.

Like I said everyone is their own individual thus there is a number of ways you can write your wedding vows:

1. Firstly talk to your fiancé and your marriage celebrant about your options. They will be able to assist and guide you in the right direction. You also want to make sure you are both comfortable and on the same page.
2. Decide together whether you want to write one set of wedding vows that you will both say, or whether you want to write them individually.
3. Jot down notes about your relationship. Think about how you felt when you first met, what made you fall in love and why you want to spend the rest of your lives together. Reflect about things like what makes you laugh about each other, what you’ve supported each other through, what you have accomplished together, what you respect most about your fiancé, how your life has gotten better since meeting your fiancé, what inspires you about your fiancé, what you miss most about them when you’re apart etc.
4. If I am your marriage celebrant I provide you with a questionnaire to help your writers block and reflect on your relationship and why you are here today! For example, think about what is the single greatest thing about the person you are about to marry?
5. Finished note taking? Now it’s time to reflect on the words you wrote, and highlight passages that you might want to include in your wedding vows. Include the best material into your wedding vows that reflects your personality and what you adore, makes you laugh and what makes you know you never want to spend a single day without your fiancé.
6. For couples who want to keep it simple! One of the simplest methods of writing your own vows is, writing down three promises; two serious and one humorous or visa versa.
7. For other couples who like to write, I recommend one to two paragraphs highlighting the vows you would like your fiancé to feel including your promises as husband or wife.
8. Lastly, read your wedding vows out loud to a trusted friend, marriage celebrant or family member. Ideally, this person will be someone who is a good writer, and someone who knows your relationship. They may have good suggestions for you, or the simple act of reading it out loud might help you identify if what you have written flows.

After over 8 year of trading I decided to re-brand, illustrating my values and beliefs as a registered marriage celebrant.

Forever Yours Weddings, symbols everlasting love. Thus the re-brand symbol is ‘infinity’ a sideways figure of eight, symbolizing its more modern interpretation of eternity and everlasting love. The infinity also draws from its ancient understanding as the symbol of perfection, duality and empowerment between male and female. Just like Yin and Yang, two opposing individuals that together become one. The word comes from the Latin infinitas or “unboundedness”.

Limitless, eternal and becoming as one, there is no better symbol to represent eternal love. And it’s not just about eternal love but also the infinite and limitless possibilities that love brings.

In classical mythology, Cupid (Latin Cupīdō [kʊˈpiː.doː], meaning “desire”) is the god of desire, erotic love, attraction and affection. He is often portrayed as the son of the love goddess Venus and the war god Mars. He is also known in Latin as Amor (“Love”).

Like the true hopeless romantic I am I believe in the Cupid arrow. There is someone made for everyone on this universe and when you have met your true love, I believe you have been struck by cupid’s arrow, driving an uncontrollable desire that forms everlasting love.

Today, Cupid and his arrows have become the most popular of love signs, and love is most frequently depicted by two hearts pierced by an arrow, Cupid’s arrow.
