HERE ARE THE VOWS WHICH WE WROTE OURSELVES FOR OUR WEDDING ON JULY 17, 2005:
Melissa’s:
Arik, my Dio, my Hero –
Today I vow to give you my Love, my Faithfulness, and my Trust as your lifelong partner.
I join with you in the common goals of healing, creativity and progress.
I will support and accept you unconditionally through life’s challenges and triumphs.
I will embrace your family as my own.
I will always respect you and your wisdom, intelligence, sense and intuition.
I promise to talk with you, listen to you, grow with you, and care for you.
I promise to always make time for cuddling.
I promise to cherish and treasure you each and every day.
I promise to share all of my stuff with you.
I promise to laugh with you, cry with you, dance with you (and for you), make beautiful music with you, and keep the passion alive all the days of our lives.
All of the things that you vow, I vow likewise.
I am honored and grateful to call you my best friend, “Partner in crime,” and Husband.
Arik’s:
Melissa, I Tychi Mou, my bride, you are my soul mate and my perfect match; we are beautiful twin souls.
As we grow and change, I vow to make every effort to do so together and not apart, honoring the wish that we have always had to find our soul mate.
I vow to become part of a new entity, “Us,” and no longer merely “Me,” a member of a team, an alliance, with the intention of releasing any negative residue from our respective pasts, retaining only the wisdom gained.
I vow that our relationship and our love will always be a priority.
I promise to treat you with the same respect, love, kindness, compassion, and emotion that I desire from you.
I vow not to treat you as an enemy, when we disagree, but as my ally.
These vows are obligations only inasmuch as the sun is obligated to rise every day, or the sea to lap the shore and I gladly, willingly, and rightly undertake these irrevocable vows, promised in love, honor, virtue, respect, and compassion.
All of the things that you vow, I vow likewise.
I promise my fidelity as your husband, your ‘partner-in-crime,’ your best friend, your true love, and your mate, now and until the end of our days; I am honored and grateful to call you my wife.
