Vow Play Box
Write your own
vows, your way.
Seven prompts. No rules. This tool walks you through the things worth saying — one question at a time — and then assembles everything into a draft you can take from here.
01 — The Origin Story
Where did this begin?
Not the first date. The moment you knew something had shifted. The detail you still remember even though it seemed small at the time. It does not need to be cinematic — real is better.
"I knew something was different when …"
02 — What You Actually See
What do you know about this person that most people don't?
The version of them that only you get to see. The quality that doesn't show up on Instagram. The thing that makes you trust them more than you trust most people.
"What I see in you, that most people miss, is …"
03 — How You've Changed
Who were you before, and what shifted?
This is not about being fixed. It is about what opened up. The thing you are more capable of now — patience, hope, being in a room without your phone — because of being with this person.
"Before you, I was someone who …"
04 — The Promises
What will you actually do?
Skip the abstract. Skip "love, honour and cherish." What specific, honest promises can you make? The ones that name the real shape of your life together — the dishes, the difficult conversations, the way you'll show up when it gets hard.
"What I promise you, in the most specific terms I can manage, is …"
05 — What You're Looking Forward To
What does your future together look like from where you're standing?
Not the fantasy version — the actual version. The ordinary things you want to keep doing. The things you have not done yet but plan to. The Tuesday evenings as much as the adventures.
"When I think about what's ahead, what I actually picture is …"
06 — The Thing You Almost Didn't Say
What would you regret leaving out?
The moment you have never quite found the words for. The thing that feels almost too true to say out loud. This is exactly the right place for it.
"There's something I've been meaning to tell you …"
07 — The Last Line
How do you want to close?
The sentence that lands. The one that the room will feel. It can be a declaration, an admission, a joke that only works because you mean it. What is the last thing you want to say before you say "I do"?
"So here, in front of everyone who matters …"

Your vows, assembled.
This is your first draft. Edit, cut, keep what sounds like you. If something reads wrong, go back and rewrite it — there is no final version until you decide there is.
