Funny Wedding Vows Article

Why would a couple choose to use funny wedding vows? Well, let's face it: weddings can be a very stressful time. They are supposed to center around a couple's love and commitment to one another. But they often end up being about money, pressure, and enormous expectations. For this reason, writing your own funny wedding vows can be a great way to break the tension. It can also allow you to enjoy your special day a bit more!
If you need some help getting started, just think about what types of activities the two of you enjoy doing together. Then think about the hobbies you don't share, because it is always easy to make jokes about differences in personality. One example of this is if one of you likes to stay in and read at night, and the other is a total party animal. Funny wedding vows also work especially well if they play off of a well-known fact about your fiance. These can be funny quirks, such as their obsession with spaghetti, or their tendency to purchase strange pieces of artwork.
The most successful funny vows usually start off in a serious tone, and then turn humorous when you least expect it. Here are some great examples:
* "I Katherine, take you Paul, to be my lawfully wedded husband. I promise to love you until the stars fall from the sky. I promise never to hog the TV on game days, and to refrain from nagging you about your love for Doritos."
* "I John, take you Mary, to be my lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward. For better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward...to infinity and beyond!"
Another great idea for injecting some humor into your vows is to include some popular jokes, rhymes, or songs. You can also include your wedding officiant in the fun. Take, for instance, this Dr. Seuss wedding vow published on several online wedding websites:
* "Ms. Seuss, would you take this man to be your lawful wedded husband? Would you could you in a house? Would you could you with this louse? Would you could you in our church? Would you could you giving birth? Would you take this Sam I Am man and in the morning feed him green eggs and ham?"
Funny wedding vows can be a great way to spice up your ceremony and make it a day that your guests will never forget. Just keep in mind that you should run your ideas past your officiant before the day of the ceremony, as well as your future spouse. This ensures that your vows are acceptable and appropriate. Once you've gotten the okay from both parties, have fun on your wedding day, and enjoy reciting your personalized vows!
