Marrying you is just not the top of my liberty; it’s the start of it.
You’re the particular person I wish to dive headfirst into life with. Once I exit on the weekends, it’s you I would like shutting down the membership with me. Once I plan an journey it’s you I would like holding the map. Once I speculate in regards to the future, I wish to see you in each outlandish fantasy I plan for myself. You’re the particular person I wish to rant excitedly to over blissful hour drinks. You’re the particular person I wish to dance round the home with in my underwear with. You’re the one who makes the entire world really feel wide-open to me and I wish to benefit from that.

Once I strap on a backpack and head to the airport, I would like you to be boarding that aircraft with me. You’re the particular person I wish to get misplaced with, arrange camp with, stumble via darkish streets with at 5a.m. with after a protracted, rambunctious night time in a metropolis that we will’t pronounce the title of. Once I get residence and have story after ridiculous story to recite to my mates, you’re the one I would like there to again up my claims. You’re the particular person I wish to come residence to and the particular person I wish to escape with. I would like you on each journey I take for the remainder of my life.

I don’t wish to be the particular person you at all times agree with. I wish to be the particular person you problem – to vary, to develop, to develop in ways in which wouldn’t have ever occurred to me earlier than I met you. I would like heated debates at 3am. I would like stark disagreements after I’m performing out of line. I would like passionate arguments about the way in which we’re residing as a result of your fireplace fuels mine and I by no means need that spark to die out. I wish to be somebody you aren’t afraid to problem as a result of generally I would like that further push. And you’ll guess your ass that I’ll push you proper again.
I don’t wish to let myself go now that I’ve you – I wish to construct myself up alongside you. One thing about you evokes me to be greater, brighter, bolder than I ever knew that I may develop into. And I hope that I encourage you, too. That collectively we will encourage each other to develop into the fullest, strongest, fiercest variations of one another. That ten years from now we can be prouder than ever to be standing beside each other and that twenty years later we’ll be even prouder nonetheless. I hope you’re not anticipating to develop stagnant in love as a result of one thing about you makes me really feel like my greatest self on steroids and I don’t plan to let that feeling die.

I selected you from the primary day I met you and child I promise to maintain selecting you. By means of each battle, I’ll select you. By means of each temptation, I’ll select you. By means of each twist and bump within the highway that threatens to tear us aside I’ll select you with the ferocious certainty I’ve felt for the reason that first time I ever laid eyes on you. I’m not anxious about falling out of affection with you child, as a result of I by no means fell in. Loving you was a waking, acutely aware alternative and it’s one which I’m going to maintain making till the day my coronary heart stops beating.
Now let’s cease with these frivolous vows – there’s a celebration to have! Now we have items to tear open and champagne to chug and a whirlwind honeymoon to go embark on. This complete marriage factor is previous and drained however we most actually usually are not. In spite of everything, you’re solely younger and wild as soon as. And child, our wildest days are simply starting.
