Love, and do what you will.
This catholic wedding vow is a heartfelt way to express your commitment.
“Following the words of Saint Augustine, I promise to love you first, and let that love guide all that I do. I take you as my spouse, promising to be faithful and true, to honor your soul, and to seek God's will for our marriage every day of our lives.

Editor's Insight
This vow is profoundly powerful, anchoring a marriage in divine love and a foundational commitment that transcends the everyday. Its strength lies in embracing Saint Augustine's wisdom, declaring a love so central it becomes the guiding principle for all actions. This makes it ideally suited for devout Catholic couples who deeply value their shared faith, approaching marriage as a sacred covenant centered on God's will and spiritual growth. For delivery, allow a brief, intentional pause after "guide all that I do," letting the gravitas of that Augustinian promise resonate fully before moving into the sacred details of your lifelong pledge.
