Not Just a Promise Between Couples! The Heartwarming Impact of Involving Friends and Family in the Vow Ceremony ♡

Not only vows between the bride and groom are wonderful!

Have you seen this video?

An emotional video that has been viewed 9 million times worldwide＊

This video features the wedding ceremony of a bride who is marrying for the second time.

The scene where the groom, who is becoming a stepfather, pledges to his daughter from the bride's previous marriage

to show her "the bond of a true family" while kneeling is incredibly moving, and he has become a topic of discussion around the world as an exceptionally wonderful man!

First, after promising eternal love to the bride normally, he kneels down to the eye level of the small child and says,

"I promise to show you how a man should be through my relationship with your mother."

"I promise to hold hands, skip, and read picture books at night."

"And above all, I promise to protect you and love you forever."

With guests watching, the groom chokes up as he makes his vows at the altar.

It’s a truly happy vow filled with kindness, love, and masculinity＊

(The scene where he makes vows to the daughter starts just after 4 minutes)

Vows made to guests and family are also lovely＊

Just like in the video introduced, wedding "vows" are not only about pledging love between the bride and groom,

but also declaring promises to each other’s families and guests can be a beautiful and meaningful performance♩

Example 1: Vowing to an age-different sibling＊

For instance, it might be something that brings great joy to the following scenario＊

If the groom has a considerably younger sister.

Groom: "Even after getting married, I will always be your big brother."

Bride: "I will become a wonderful big sister."

It seems that a vow card was handed to the younger sister.

The cute jealousy and loneliness of thinking, "After you get married, you might be too busy with your wife and never play with me..." is soothed by this very kind gesture♡

Example 2: Vowing to each other’s friends＊

It's a common belief that after getting married, you can’t hang out and spend money like when you were single.

But that can feel a bit sad, and there's a desire to continue friendships even after marriage!

So,

"I allow my husband/wife to go out for drinks even after we’re married!"

"I will always welcome my husband/wife with a smile when they return home from a drinking party."

"So everyone, please keep inviting us like always♡"

This kind of vow thrown towards guests by the bride and groom could really liven up the casual scenes like after-parties＊

Example 3: Guests asking "Do you vow?"

In a free-style ceremony, instead of having a pastor, guests can say, "Do you vow?"

"Will you continue to love each other forever?"

This format could also be a lovely twist.

Similar to an instruction manual, "The bride has a personality of ~~, please treat her like ~~. Do you vow to love her forever?"

Having guests step forward during the ceremony is quite rare, so it’s sure to surprise everyone.

There’s more than one way to give vows!

Vowing is a time-honored tradition that has been a staple in ceremonies for hundreds of years.

It is a very sacred ritual.

However, it can be wonderful to create an original vow that reflects who you are instead of sticking to a set method!

There should be as many kinds of vows as there are couples.

Please vow your unique promise in front of everyone♩
