Wedding vows stand out when they have been prepared using the following three tips (that I always give my bride and grrom):
1. Make sure you have used language that reflects your personality. Many couples seach online for vows and take the wording that has been used in other ceremonies. I encourage you to refrain from doing this. It's ok to use existing vows as inspiration, but it is important to COMPLETELY use your own language. For example, instead of saying "I promise to love you in good times and in bad" you could say "Im going to try and always look for the best in you, no matter what we go through together"
2. Write your vows at least 1- 2 months before your ceremony. Let your vows refelect the strong intension that you plan to keep working at for the rest of your life. Look at them 1-3 times each week, perhaps each night before bed? Let them become your mantra and a part of your belief system. Think of it this way, when someone asks you in 20 years time "What did you vow to your partner?" you should be able to instantly recite your vow. Practicing it weekly in the lead up to your marriage will consolidate it not just in your mind, but in your heart. They will become words to live by.
3. Read or recite your vows SLOWLY to your partner whilst looking them in the eyes. So many times i have seen couples rush through their vows out of nervousness. But trust me, everyone has time to hear you share these precious words. In fact, the vows are often the most heartfelt part of the ceremony. So during the vows just zone right in on your partner. Imagine that no one else in the world exists. Let it be a personal moment and slow it right down, as if you have no where else to be or go.
During your ceremony, if you start to feel emotional or short of breath, I encourage you to breath right into your heart. Come home to yourself (and to eachother) over and over agian during your day by simply alowing yourself to breath, smile inwards and relax.
Warm regards for a heart-felt ceremony,
Nathalie Brewer
