Paul & Tess - vows

"My beautiful Tess"

"Our marriage and life together begin now."

"You're my partner, my best friend, and my biggest supporter. Every single day of mine is better simply because you're part of it."

"With each passing year, I've loved you more. You are everything to me. And from when we met, I could no longer picture a life without you."

"I never thought I would find love like we have. It's surpassed my expectations every day."

"I'm so grateful to have found someone who loves, me so strongly.

Now and through those years, it was very clear to me that we were meant, for one another, truly."

"Loving you is the easiest thing I've ever done and will ever do. It's the first thing I do when I wake up, and the last thing I think about, before I go to sleep."

"You are my rock, my best friend, and the most amazing partner I could imagine. Thank you."

"I admire your strong, but gentle heart, through courage and communication, I love your passion and drive and the small ways you show me how much you care. It makes saying goodbye difficult and saying hello a pleasure. You know me better than I know myself and graciously use that knowledge for good."

"I know we have something not many people will find, and I will cherish you until my last day. I love you."

"I love how happy you get, when I bring you tea without asking. And when you catch me smiling at you from across the room. You are my family."

"In the presence of our closest friends and family. Firstly and fully, I promise to love you. Because love is patient. Love is kind. You are love. You are patient. You are kind. You do not envy or boast. You are not rude, self-seeking, nor easily arrogant. You always protect, always trust, and always persevere. My heart and my hand are yours. And our love will never fail."

"You are the single most beautiful, funny, intelligent, loving and passionate person I've ever met. And I promise to be yours forever. Nothing will bring me more joy than to call you my wife. And from today onwards it will actually be true."

"...You may kiss your husband."

"In front of all our family and friends, I vow to be a loving and understanding husband. Through anything that the world has to offer, I vow to stay by your side and to take it on together, like we always have, forever. I love you, Tess."
