Writing your own vows is becoming increasingly popular. There are statutory phrases in both civil and church ceremonies that must be said in order for a marriage to be legal however there is increasingly more scope for brides and grooms to personalise their vows at weddings.

The most successful way to write personalised vows is to think about the two of you and the things you would like to promise each other.

Remember that your vows are a public declaration of your commitment to each other. The words should be created for others to witness and not just as a private conversation between you and your partner.

Vow renewals are also popular with couples celebrating special anniversaries, for example silver wedding, golden wedding or even diamond wedding events. Why not celebrate your anniversary with a Lanzarote Wedding?
