- Read them aloud to check the timing, then copy, download or print your vow card.
A simple structure for personal vows
- Opening: say your partner's name and set the tone in one or two sentences.
- Your story: how you met or the moment you knew. One specific detail beats a long summary.
- What you love: two or three qualities, ideally with a small example.
- Promises: three to seven promises, mixing serious ones with one or two light, specific ones.
- Your future: something you look forward to building together.
- Closing: a short, heartfelt final line that is easy to say while emotional.
Vow length and speaking time
| Length | Words | Spoken time (≈130 words per minute) | Good for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Short | 100 – 150 | about 1 minute | Small ceremonies, nervous speakers |
| Medium | 200 – 280 | about 1½ to 2 minutes | Most weddings |
| Long | 300 – 400 | about 2½ to 3 minutes | Intimate ceremonies, vow renewals |
Tips for writing and saying your vows
- Be specific: "I promise to make your coffee on Sunday mornings" is more memorable than a general promise.
- Write for the ear: short sentences are easier to say, especially when you are emotional.
- Practice out loud a few times, and print a clean copy or vow card for the ceremony.
- Look up: pause between promises and look at your partner, not the page.
Frequently asked questions
How long should wedding vows be?
Most personal vows are about one to two minutes long, roughly 150 to 300 words when read at a relaxed pace. Agree on a rough length with your partner so your vows feel balanced.
What should I include in my wedding vows?
A simple structure works well: open by speaking to your partner, share a short story or memory, say what you love about them, make a few specific promises, and close with a line about your future together.
How do I make my vows funny without losing the meaning?
Use one or two light, affectionate jokes, such as promises about sharing the blanket or the last bite, and keep the opening and closing sincere. Avoid inside jokes the guests won't understand and anything that could embarrass your partner.
What are traditional wedding vows?
Traditional vows usually include promises to have and to hold, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish. Many religious traditions have their own set wording, so check with your officiant before the ceremony.
Should we share our vows with each other before the wedding?
Many couples keep the words a surprise but agree on the tone and length. Some share them with the officiant or a trusted friend instead, who can confirm they are a similar length.
Are my vows saved or sent anywhere?
No. The drafts are put together in your browser from built-in phrases and your answers. Your entries are saved only in this browser's local storage so you can come back and keep editing.
