Are you best friends with your spouse?

Many couples swear that friendship is the best foundation for marriage.

It comes naturally in the early days of any relationship. You spend time together, getting to know each other. All that intentionality leads to a beautiful blend of friendship and desire.

But then, a decade (or two or three) pass, and your spouse feels like a complete stranger.

Sure, you might have raised a family or supported each other’s careers, but when you look at your spouse, you’re not sure you know them anymore, let alone like them.

If that sounds familiar, it’s time to get back to the roots of a thriving marriage: friendship.

Considering a Vow Renewal? Read This.

The years have passed since you and your spouse first said “I do”. There have been amazing times and some tough ones too.

It doesn’t matter if you are celebrating your 1st anniversary or celebrating your 15th, 20th or 30th anniversary.

Marriage has been an adventure for you both. 🙂

As you look back on your wedding, it was an amazing day. You now realize that it’s time to renew those vows you said to each other.

You want to personalize yours to express all that you have experienced together as a married couple. Plus you want your vows to be about the two of you and the marriage you have built.

Use these 7 awesome vows for your wedding renewal and tweak them to fit you and your spouse.

Most importantly, don’t just say the words, express them with your whole heart.

Here are seven that you can use to write your own vows on your special day.

1. I promise to love you as you are, not as the person I think you should be.
2. I promise to hold off watching the next episode of whatever we’re watching (or listening to) until we can do it together.
3. I promise to remember that neither one of us is perfect. But instead strive to remind myself of the ways we are perfect for one another.
