Wedding Vows Quotes

“Okay, so, Beth, follow me. 'I, Beth, a totally awesome chick ...'"

Beth barked out a giggle. "I, Beth ..."

"Where's the 'awesome chick' part? What? Come on, I have a license from the Internet. I know what I'm doing."

Wrath nodded at his leehan. "He's right. You are, in fact, awesome. I think we need to hear it."

"Can I get an amen!" Lassiter shouted.

"Ammmmmmmmmen!" echoed throughout the mansion.

"Fine, fine, fine," she said. "I, Beth, a totally awesome chick ..."

"'... take this meathead, Wrath ...'"

"... take this meathead, Wrath ..."

"'... as my husband to have and to hold from this day forward...”
― J.R. Ward, The King

“The thing is, you can't really rely on love. Which is why I intend to offer you something far more consistent. Commitment, friendship and loyalty. I promise to give you my protection, no matter the price. I will never turn our back on us. We will fall in and out of love many times, but I promise to always find my way back to you. To put us back together even when the temptation to break things off is too much. And when loves feels far away..."

He presses his forehead to mine, his lips moving over mine.

"I will bring it right back to our doorstep.”
― L.J. Shen, The Villain

“Here, witnessed by our Saints and our friends,” Genya said, “I speak words of both love and duty. It is not a chore but an honor to swear faith to you, to promise love to you, to offer my hand and my heart to you in this life and the next.” They were the traditional Ravkan words, spoken at the weddings of nobleman and peasant alike.
The Grisha vows were very different.
“We are soldiers,” David recited, low and shaky. He was unused to speaking in front of a crowd. “I will march with you in times of war. I will rest with you in times of peace. I will forever be the weapon in your hand, the fighter at your side, the friend who awaits your return.” His voice grew stronger and louder with every word. “I have seen your face in the making at the heart of the world and there is no one more beloved, Genya Safin, brave and unbreakable.”
― Leigh Bardugo, Rule of Wolves

“Suddenly James was there, throwing an arm around her from behind. He seemed heedless of Cortana as he drew her back against him, whispering in her ear, "'Neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor demons, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, shall be able to separate us.' Do you understand? Keep hold of me, Daisy. Keep hold of me and don't let go.”
― Cassandra Clare, Chain of Iron

“The only parts that really matter and take commitment in wedding vows are; worse, sickness and poorer. Better, richer and healthy is pretty easy to deal with.”
― Rob Liano

“With all the strength; Love encompasses compassion, determination, tolerance, endurance, support, faith and acceptance of whom you love.”
― Oscar Auliq-Ice

“Let it be known that this bond is unbreakable, as enduring as the strength of our realm. By my will and the power of our ancient rites, Blake Drakharrow and Medra Pendragon are now bound together in fate and duty, forever unyielding, irrevocably united. As the dragon flies and the blood endures, so shall your destinies be intertwined. Your bond is forged. Through fire and shadows, you shall be one. What is spoken is unbroken. What is bound cannot be unbound.”
― Briar Boleyn, On Wings of Blood

“Wedding song (reprise)
But you and I, through burning plains,
through darkness of the earth,
affirm the world, its people,
the heavens that gave them birth,
the breath that passes between us,
this new home where we stand,
and all those things made larger by
the vows between woman and man.”
― Margaret Weis, Test of the Twins

“Only in marriage do love and time,
eternal enemies, join forces.”
― Adam Zagajewski, Eternal Enemies: Poems

“At its fundamental nature, a final judgment that leads a person into marriage is not merely love, but a commitment to love a person forevermore, even when extenuating circumstances make it virtually impossible to continue extending untarnished and undiminished love. Marriage is a fundamental decision, a vow never to stop loving another person, never to leave a relationship irrespective of what life entails.”
― Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“Sometimes it is not the marriage that is boring, it’s your life. ⁣”
― Richie Norton

“Our minister was as confused as we were. "And now Flo," he would say to me, "you stand here'
"He's Flo, I'm Billie," I would say.
"Oh, all right, then, you stand here, Bill," he would say to Flo, and Flo would correct him.
"I'm Flo, she's Bill - I mean Billie."
But he married us and I am quite sure it was legal.”
― Billie Burke, With A Feather On My Nose

“My wedding vows will look like this: "For as long as our union is healthful for the both of us; for as long as our union is salutary for the both of us; for as long as our union does not harm either of us; for as long as we are each others' home.”
― C. JoyBell C.

“I don't believe in the concept of marriage. I believe people can get married, but I also believe it's up to them just how many times they get married and divorced. Because people change, we all change. We can never really, truly promise someone fidelity or everlasting love until death, because we are always changing, growing and we genuinely don't know who we'll be ten years from now or who we'll want to be with ten years from now. So what are you gonna keep on doing? Are you going to just kiss everything else in your life goodbye, because you promised to stay loyal to one person? The marriage concept is unrealistic, phantasmic. We are all individuals and we all change, it's the way of nature itself. Weddings are nice things to do, but, I will never judge anyone who gets married and divorced a dozen times, because, you'll never know how many times it'll take before you grow enough to find the actual one for you.”
― C. JoyBell C.

“He lovingly leant his hand,
I gentle offered mine,
Together holding each other,
We fell in never ending ocean of love.”
― Luffina Lourduraj

“He slides my ruby ring off his finger. 'I, Cardan, son of Eldred, High King of Elfhame, take you, Jude Duarte, mortal ward of Madoc, to be my bride and my queen. Let us be wed until we wish for it to be otherwise and the crown has passed from our hands.'

As he speaks, I begin to tremble with something between hope and fear. The words he's saying are so momentous that they're surreal, especially here, in Eldred's own rooms. Time seems to stretch out. Above us, the branches begin to bud, as though the land itself heard the words he spoke.

Catching my hand, he slides the ring on. The exchange of rings is not a faerie ritual, and I am surprised by it.

'Your turn,' he says in to the silence. He gives me a grin. 'I'm trusting you to keep your word and release me from my bond of obedience after this.'

I smile back, which maybe makes up for the way that I froze after he finished speaking. I still can't quite believe this is happening. My hand tightens on his as I speak. 'I, Jude Duarte, take Cardan, High King of Elfhame, to be my husband. Let us be wed until we don't want to be and the crown has passed from our hands.'

He kisses the scar of my palm.

I still have his brother's blood under my fingernails.

I don't have a ring for him.

Above us, the buds are blooming. The whole room smells of flowers.

Drawing back, I speak again, pushing away all thoughts of Balekin, of the future in which I am going to have to tell him what I've done. 'Cardan, son of Eldred, High King of Elfhame, I forsake any command over you. You are free of your vow of obedience, for now and for always.'

He lets out a breath and stands a bit unsteadily. I can't quite wrap my head around the idea that I am... I can't even think the words. Too much has happened tonight.”
― Holly Black, The Wicked King

“Vulnerable Love (The Sonnet)

Choose me if you feel something,
not because it's convenient or glorious.
I have neither the interest nor the strength,
to go out again and look for someone else.

If you choose me, you are stuck with me,
through thick and thin, through everything.
It won't always be clear and sunny,
sometimes it'll be blue, sometimes boring.

True love is not something you find,
True love is something you nurture together.
Once you rediscover yourself in someone,
Never turn your back, come hell or high water!

Any ape can find escape in romance novels,
It takes a human to be the living pillar of love.
While every robot seeks emotional maturity,
Be the human who cherishes vulnerable love.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Visvavatan: 100 Demilitarization Sonnets

“Oraya of the Nightborn,' he murmured. 'I give you my body. I give you my blood. I give you my soul. I give you my heart. From this night until the end of nights. From daybreak until our days are broken. Your soul is my soul. Your heart is my heart. Your pain is my pain. I bind myself to you.”
― Carissa Broadbent, The Serpent and the Wings of Night

“Contract Matrimony (The Sonnet)

When I fall, I fall wholly -
without a safety net of any kind.
Prenups are an insult of love,
all in fear of an imaginary night.

Contract lovers are worse
than contract killers,
at least contract killers
don't second guess their motive.
Either love or don't,
there's no second guessing -
either marry or don't,
there's no contract matrimony.

Prenups are for juveniles,
Clauses are for cowards.
To seek escape in commitment,
is an act of con, not love.

Escapists have no right to love,
Lovers have no need for escape.
When you change exes like socks,
It's a sickness, not a choice.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Dervis Vadisi: 100 Promissory Sonnets

“You must leave me now
But I feel good in my heart
We stayed together and in love
Only death caused us to part”
― Margaret H. Oliver, A Woman's Place: The Complete Poetry Collection of Margaret Oliver

“Preacher said, "I want a nice clean marriage, no shots below the belt."
Remmy said, “Obviously you’ve never been on a honeymoon.”
― Lancelot Schaubert, Bell Hammers

“You can find two or maybe more such lines, but this doesn’t mean that you simply will have as many marriages looking at the amount of marriage lines. Discover that this means you have got several suitors who want to require you to the altar. It’s very interesting to understand that if one in every one of these lines of marriage is longer than the others, it symbolizes that you simply could have a protracted and wonderful marriage.”
― MARRIAGE LINES IN YOUR HAND AND THEIR MEANINGS

“You loved me for me, no matter who that was. You fought for me. You almost died for me. My heart was yours from the moment I met you. I gave it, freely, never expecting to receive yours in return. Now I ask you to be my husband, for I am desperate to be your beloved wife. With the two of us bound together as one, we will never lack for joy. We will take on any sorrow, any challenge, and face it together. I love you, Linden Chevalier. Have I said that already?”
― Fenna Edgewood, Once Upon a Midwinter's Kiss

“When I'm lost, you light the way.
When I'm down, you lift me up.
My life is full because of you.
Friend. Lover. Wife. Beautiful mother.
A partner in this life we're building.
When you need me, I'll be there to hold you.
Support you. Encourage you.
Find you when you're lost.
Lift you up when you're down.
No obstacles are too hard for us to conquer together.
I am forever and always yours.”
― Kelly Siskind, 10 Signs You Need to Grovel

“The ceremony was beautiful, and as Hope and Mark stood beneath the towering floral arch, I couldn't help but think this scene truly looked like something out of a fairytale wedding. I even started feeling a little emotional--- until they started to recite their vows.
Hope had told me earlier that she and Mark had written their own vows but failed to say more about them. At first, I thought my hearing had failed or I was having some kind of stroke.
"What language is that?" I whispered to Dom from our perch in the back.
"I... I actually think it's a pretend language," he replied.
"What are you talking about?" I asked. "What do you mean pretend language?"
"Do you have one of the programs with you?" he asked. "I bet there's a note in there about it."
"No, but let me grab one."
I didn't have to go far before I found the table at the back of the aisle and a basket full of programs. Each program was iridescent, in the shape of a flower with a beautiful lilac ribbon tied at the bottom. Under the order of service, a small line read: "The bride and groom have chosen to recite their own vows to one another in their favorite mythical tongue: Sindarin, one of the Elvish languages of Tolkein." My eyes were wide as saucers.
Both the Elvish and English translations were printed below for everyone to follow along. Dom was going to lose it for sure.
I quietly moved back to my seat next to Dom, who was still filming. "You're not going to believe what I'm about to tell you," I whispered as I casually fanned myself with the floral program.
"What is it?" he asked.
"It's Elvish," I said, holding back a laugh.
"What?" he replied a little too loud.
"Keep your voice down," I said, now pointing to the line in the program as proof.
"Like, from The Lord of the Rings?"
"I can't believe she didn't mention this to me earlier," I said. "But yes, I think so. This wedding is just full of surprises."
"For once, I'm at a loss for words," Dom said. "They are clearly perfect for each other if this was something they both enjoyed. I bet they go to all those conferences for people who like fantasy stuff."
"Maybe that's what they're doing for their honeymoon," I added. "I haven't asked them about it yet. If it is, I'm going to die."
We were both holding back giggles at this point, but thankfully the couple finished reciting whatever it was they were saying to each other. I wondered whether we'd need to add subtitles to our video if we showed this part of the ceremony.
As soon as the officiant pronounced them man and wife, the ceremony musicians played a set of chimes and the officiant asked for every guest to open the small box that was placed at the base of every bench. Inside each box was a butterfly that flew into the air and fluttered around the entire area above all the guests. I supposed that since real fairies weren't available, butterflies were the next best option. It was actually the perfect ending to this mythical ceremony, and everyone cheered in delight.”
