Planning a wedding can be a lot of work.   There are so many details to be taken care of.  The bride and groom want everything to be just right.  One of the details that have to be taken care of is planning for the vows.  Building your wedding vows to withstand a lifetime is one ways of saving your marriage.

What are Wedding Vows?

Wedding vows are a promise the couple makes to each other before friends, family, and God if they are faith driven.

Planning the wedding details from the right color of flowers and bows to the flavor of cake takes a lot of planning, preparation and set up even up to the day of the ceremony.   Many couples plan for months or a year for their wedding.

Some couples spend the time to pen their own personal vows other couples use vows that have been handed down through their family generation after generation.  Yet other couples desire to go with more traditional or faith based vows.  Each of these types of vows is usually held with great sentimental value.  But often the vows are just words upon a paper that are expected to be a part of the wedding ceremony.

The wedding vows should be carefully considered by the couple planning their wedding.   These vows are the foundation on which the marriage is based.  When you build a house you want it to have a solid foundation to withstand the elements under which is will stand for a lifetime.  Marriage so the much more should be built on a solid foundation of vows that will withstand the elements of time under which it must stand for a lifetime.

When trouble comes into the marriage, perhaps it would be a good idea, before anything is said which will be regretted latter, the couple should pull their wedding vows out and read them to each other and then work on the trouble at hand.  If just one of the partners would do this it could make a vast difference in the outcome of the marriage.

Marriage will last when the vows are more than just words upon paper or words that were simply repeated at the wedding ceremony.  The Wedding vows or better said marriage vows should be lived on a daily basis by both partners saving the marriage daily rather than waiting for a crisis to occur.
