I would use mine but the phrase "FOR BETTER FOR WORSE, IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH, TILL DEATH DO US PART" would be a bold statement in it as you can see.

Impulse80: Dont worry i'll come and be your husband when the going is good and when it gets bad i'll just disapear. Talk about fairweather marriage

this whole point isnt even about fair-weather or not.
Writing your own vows is a play of words and something from within!
Include for better or worse of you like it so.
I gave my 'buts' about the 'for worse' and that's all there is to it!

I wish you do a further study on this divine Institution of Marriage..... It is simply a life- long commitment. If u want a short term contract.... Well even when u convince or confuse him to agree, that does not change the basic reality of what marriage is.

i am not trying to change the basic reality of what marriage is nor i'm i trying to confuse or convince anyone to agrre to a short term contract.please refer to the post below to understand my point better.

slimyem:
I want my vow to come from within and mean every word of my it! Not some for better,for worse eye-service bullshyt!

slimyem: nobody remembers the vows because its the usual!
More like a formalty!
Something you have to say to the hearing of the world even if you dont mean it!
Dont you think the vows will hold stronger if it truly comes from within?
Won't the beauty and peace of that moment linger forever in your minds?

my dear, may be you should be more specific by telling us what this your vow will look like

Joe Mosco: @ poster, though I appreciate your character as a "Free Thinker"
I must state categoricaly that deviation from the Binding clause of "for better, for worse" is a selfish denial of Marital Responsibility and obligation....

na so

Look @ it dis way Slimyem, 'Better 4 worst' is d topic; 'In sickness n in health, in richer n poorer' d body; 'Til death do us part' d conclusion. I.e, d body explains d topic. @topic, 'l def mak my own vows but wit d 'topic, body n conclusion' wit it.
