Wedding vows for him are a great deal and generally, wedding vows are the most important part of a wedding in my opinion.
Because it is in that moment that you can really tell your partner how you feel about him or her and share your innermost thoughts that are deep in your heart for them.
There are a lot of ways you can go about professing your love or wedding vows for him; you can either chose from the classic traditional wedding vows for him spoken by billions of people over the years or chose to say your own uniquely heartfelt wedding vows for him personally tailored to your relationship.
So how do you decide the traditions to leave behind and those to incorporate?
First of all, let’s get to know the reasons behind wedding vows. Wedding vows to him or wedding vows, in general, are all about the commitments and promises you’re making to your partner about your marriage.
They do not only consist of vows to just marry you but also to go above and beyond for you no matter what that looks like for you.
It doesn’t matter if you choose the traditional “to have to hold, in sickness and in health” or if you want your own completely unique version, the key is to pass the information, make the commitment, and then put in the subsequent work to make your marriage work and avoid divorce.
Over the course of being married for over 25 years, I have made some mistakes, learned some lessons along the way, and build my marriage to the version I wanted it to be.
Nevertheless, if you’ve chosen to write your own unique wedding vows for him, you’ll need guidance, examples, and samples to draw inspiration.
On that note, I’ve compiled the best 100 wedding vows for him that make you cry. They consist of heartfelt wedding vows for him, traditional wedding vows for him, funny wedding vows for him, and short wedding vows for him. Let’s dive in!
Heartfelt Vows For Him
This section contains wedding vows for him that make you cry. They are heartfelt wedding vows for him and come straight from deep within. There are also some traditional wedding vows for him contained within.
1. Love is a word that is much too soft and used far too often to ever describe the fierce, infinite, and blazing passion that I have in my heart for you.
2. Falling for you wasn’t falling at all—it was walking into a house and knowing you’re home.
3. Everything in me recognizes your heart as my home and your arms, my shelter.
4. I promise to pray with you, to dream with you, to build a family with you, and to encourage you. I admire you. Simply because of your kind soul, tender heart, and a positive mindset. I especially appreciate your endearing sense of humor. I am ever so grateful for your love and selflessness. In return, I offer these promises.
5. You know me better than anyone else in this world and somehow still you manage to love me. You are my best friend and one true love. There is still a part of me today that cannot believe that I’m the one who gets to marry you.
6. I love you because you make me proud. Because you are adventurous and happy. You are the dream I never dreamed of come true. I love you because you make me say, ‘Yes, we can. Yes, I want. Yes, I do.
7. All that I am and all that I have, I offer to you in love and in joy. From this day forward I will love and comfort you, hold you close, prize you above all others, and remain faithful to you all the days of our lives.
8. I vow to love, honor, and cherish you, forsaking all others, as a faithful husband as long as we both shall live.

13. I love you without fear, without hesitation, and promise to support you, encourage you, and cherish you as your wife.
14. Live with me, laugh with me, love with me, and I will be your devoted wife forevermore.
15. And I’d choose you; in a hundred lifetimes, in a hundred worlds, in any version of reality, I’d find you and I’d choose you.
16. I didn’t fall in love with you. I walked into love with you, with my eyes wide open, choosing to take every step along the way. I do believe in fate and destiny, but I also believe we are only fated to do the things that we’d choose anyway.
17. I saw that you were perfect and so I loved you. Then I saw that you were not perfect and I loved you even more.

24. What can I say that I haven’t already said? What can I provide you that I haven’t already given? My body, my mind, my soul, and my heart. They’re all yours.
Everything that I have. Everything that I am, belongs to you long before this day. And I promise that I shall be yours forever. I will follow you anywhere you go, everywhere you lead me to. Hand in hand. Heart in heart. Let’s grow old together.
25. I used to be afraid of falling in love; of giving my heart away. How could I ever trust a man to love me? How could I love a man and wish he’d love me back the way I needed him to? But when I met you, I realized that it’s possible to meet a man I could trust; a man who could love me the way I wanted to be loved. You’ve renewed my perception in life. Today, I join that life with you, forever.
26. I humbly give you my hand, my heart and my life as I promise my faith and love to you. My love for you is eternal, just like the ring I give you today. It’s a circle without end. Just like this ring, it’s made of incorruptible substance, my commitment and love to you will never fail.

33. The adventure we are about undertaking is filled with precious moments between us, to look forward to. I say all that because you are my best friend, my true love, and my most dependent partner. No other person will do.

39. The other half of me you are, bringing on laughter when I’m sad. The constant voice of reason when I’d be rash, my finder when I’m lost. My patient teacher, guide, and one true love.
40. Ever thine, Ever Mine, Ever Ours.
41. At the most inordinate time, it dawned on me that my best friend has been the man my heart waited for all those years. Suffice it to say that the heavens shined on me to give me one of life’s top rated blessings. I am destined to love and honor you without looking back.

In this moment, as we stand before our family and friends, hands joined and ready to pledge our future, I’m thinking one thing as I look into your eyes: “Is it too late to consider eloping?” No, really, I’m thinking how lucky I am to spend the rest of my life with this beautiful and strong person. I pledge to make you laugh every day, starting today. I pledge to love you forever.
