Hi all,
Such a dumb question here but I'm just not totally getting it. We are writing our own vows. Does the officiant still say something along the lines below after we say our vows, or do we take this part out because we're writing our own?
Officiant:
Josh, do you take Sophie to be your lawfully wedded wife?
Do you promise to love, honor, cherish, and protect her, forsaking all others, and holding only unto her forevermore?
[“I do.”]
And Sophie, do you take Josh to be your husband?
Do you promise to love, honor, cherish, and protect him, forsaking all others, and holding only unto him forevermore?
[“I do.”]
Thank you!
