Although we wrote our vows ourselves, we kept to the traditional for the most part.



In recognition of the will of God, through the prompting of His Holy Spirit,
The affirmation of His saints, and the guidelines in His written Word,
Forsaking all others, I, Michael, take you, Rachel,
with your weaknesses and strengths,
To be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward,
To love, strengthen, honor, and cherish,
For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer,
Through sickness, and in health, through good times and sad,
For as long as we both shall live.

With this ring, I seal you as my own. Will you be MINE for life?

I will.
