Ranked #55,611 in Culture & Society, #1,252,908 overall

Everyone wants to make their wedding vows special, and when they are having a non traditional wedding, it's important to make the vows unique, too. Here are a few ideas for non traditional wedding vows to get you started.

3 things you should know about Non Traditional Wedding Vows

1. Gone are the days of love, honor and obey. Almost everyone these days has the word "obey" taking out of the vows and replaces it with the word "cherish".
2. The newest trend is to write your own vows. Many wedding officiants are keen to this and are willing to let you say just about whatever you want.
3. If you're having a gay wedding, the wording can get a little tricky at times. Decide in advance how you want to end the ceremony - man and wife just doesn't cut it!

Sound off! What do you think of [keyword]

I believe that any two people who are in love should have the right to get married. Gay or straight should simply not be an issue when it comes to have basic rights.

Do you think gay marriage should be legal?

Yes! Gays should have the same rights as everyone else!

No way, a marriage is between a man and woman!
