| | "Until I met you, marriage-type love was an abstract thing I only read about in poems, heard sung in romantic love songs, or read about in books; but when I met you I knew for the first time what it was to experience this type of love within my heart. You have made me a believer in the real thing, in the promise of a love that will last a lifetime. There is nothing more important to me in my life than your love; I value it above money, power or position. I rejoice in our love, and I promise to walk by your side with a constancy that only comes from unreserved commitment, and it is this commitment I make to you now as I take you as my husband / wife, from this day forward and so long as we both shall live."

I do not expect you to fulfill all my dreams, just as I cannot fulfill all of yours, but I do ask that you share your dreams with me so that I may be your help mate throughout all the years of our lives, and this is my promise."
