Only this, always: I choose you.
This short wedding vow is a heartfelt way to express your commitment.
“Only this, always: I choose you. I choose your hand, your heart, your laughter, and the life we are building together. Today, tomorrow, and every ordinary day after, I am yours.

Editor's Insight
Short vows work best when every word carries weight, and this one succeeds by using repetition with restraint. "Only this, always" feels ceremonial, while the rest stays intimate and plainspoken. It is especially useful for nervous speakers, elopements, or couples who prefer a clean vow exchange. Hold eye contact on "I choose you" so the shortness feels intentional rather than rushed.
