Emma & David's Heartfelt Vows

David, standing here today feels like coming home. We've known each other since we were kids, playing in the backyard and dreaming about the future. Life took us on different paths, but somehow, we found our way back to each other. And I'm so grateful we did. You know me better than anyone else in this world. You've seen me at my best and my worst, and you love me anyway. You make me laugh until my sides hurt, you challenge me to be better, and you remind me every day what it means to be truly seen and accepted. I promise to honor the friendship that brought us here. I vow to be your partner in all things—in building our dreams, in raising our future family, in navigating the ups and downs of life. I promise to never take you for granted, to always make time for us, and to keep choosing love, even when it's hard. I promise to be patient, to be kind, and to always come back to the table when we disagree. I vow to celebrate your victories as my own and to hold you when the world feels heavy. Most importantly, I promise to love you fiercely, faithfully, and forever. Today, I'm not just marrying my partner—I'm marrying my best friend. And I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you.
