A Wedding Poem by Wendy Cope
A Vow
I cannot promise never to be angry;
I cannot promise always to be kind.
You know what you are taking on, my darling –
It’s only at the start that love is blind.
And yet I’m still the one you want to be with
And you’re the one for me – of that I’m sure.
You are my closest friend, my favourite person,
The lover and the home I’ve waited for.
I cannot promise that I will deserve you
From this day on. I hope to pass that test.
I love you and I want to make you happy.
I promise I will do my very best.

A Wedding Poem by Ian DuhigBridled Vows
I will be faithful to you, I do vow
but not until the seas have all run dry
etcetera: although I mean it now,
I’m not a prophet and I will not lie.
To be your perfect wife, I could not swear;
I’ll love, yes; honour (maybe); won’t obey,
but will co-operate if you will care
as much as you are seeming to today.
I’ll do my best to be your better half,
but I don’t have the patience of a saint;
not with you, at you I may sometimes laugh,
and snap too, though I’ll try to learn restraint.
We might work out: no blame if we do not.
With all my heart, I think it’s worth a shot.

A Wedding Poem by Joe Green
My Vows
Take you by the hand
slip on a wedding band
Smile and say I do
so in love with you
Give you my heart
till death do us part
Laugh and sing and cry
until the day we die
in poverty or wealth
in sickness and in health
Eternity just around the bend
faithful to the very end
We start a family
promise to grow old with me.
