Is it possible to fall deeper in love with someone just by thinking about them?
I think so.
This week whenever I think about the wedding, or the fact that John will OFFICIALLY be my husband, I get all sparkleyrocketshipgooeybutterflycupcake on the inside!!
Right now I’m waiting for him to get home so I can just jump on him and hold him til forever. (or until he pokes and tickles my sides and I am forced to let go)
I still haven’t written my vows fully. I keep trying and then I break down crying like an idiot.
No words seem good enough. I don’t know words descriptive or broad enough to capture what I feel for John and how I will devote my life to him as his wife. I want to say how excited I am to take this next step in our journey, and how happy I am and how natural it feels to do life with him as my partner.
But I want it to sound, the way it feels when I think about it….does that make sense?
::sigh::
I’m just feelin extra loveydovey and I wish I could get it down on paper. I don’t wanna wing it on the big day.
Did you write your own vows or have the paster/minister/priest/officiant say them? How did you write them? Any tips??

This is seriously the coolest post I've ever read. Sometimes it's so difficult to put thoughts and feelings into words, so regardless of what you say on your wedding day, you'll have the rest of your LIFE to SHOW him how you feel about him.

We wrote our own vows! I sobbed while writing them. I would recommend looking online for other peoples' as a starting point. That's what I started doing, and then the words just started flowing 🙂

This post is adorable. Y'all are so in love. 😉 We weren't allowed to write our own vows (thanks Catholic church). I will say I barely got through the generic vows – it was very emotional, I dunno how I would've been able to get through them if I'd written very heartfelt ones.
Brittany says
you are too cute words! I'm serious! 🙂 I love how much you love this boy!

Wrote my own in my first marriage… they were SUPER CUTE!! I wrote his too because he didnt want to write them (a sign??…haha) … but yes…I included things about loving Star Trek and video games…we are nerds…so it worked.

We are planning to write our own vows and even though I still have 7 months, 1 week and 1 day remaining, I have thought about what to write on many occassions and I have came to the conclusion that itis difficult to put how I feel in words…Sorry, I can't offer you any advice or words of wisdom…but just know that you are not alone!

awwww! that's adorable :]
Our vows were given to us by the venerable. I had no idea what they were going to be since it was a buddhist wedding, but when I heard them I nearly cried. They were asked in like she asks a question, we say yes or no. Was something like will you promise to love him/her with all our heart, will we promise to perform our husband/wife duties as best as we can, we will be there for him/her for love and support. It was amazing :}
yay you!
