You want to write vows to each other but prefer those inside jokes and sweet promises be spoken away from the crowd. If this sounds like you private vow reading might be right up your alley! We are seeing more couples opt for this and keeping their public ceremony vows more simple and traditional.

When and where on your day would you say your wedding vows? There are a few options. If you are doing a first look then that is the perfect time as you have already carved out time to spend alone. After the big reveal you can pull out those sweet words and speak them to each other while your photo and video teams stand at a distance so you can have privacy. Not having a first look? That is ok, you can work them into your day with a first touch or right after your ceremony.

What do you think about this trend? Has the thought of saying your vows in public pushed you away from personalized vows? This is a trend we are totally for as we want you to feel comfortable on your day no matter what you choose.

Check out Caroline & Beau’s wedding day where they shared private vows with one another outside of the Colonial Country Club following their first look before heading to their ceremony.
