Take turns finishing this sentence: "If someone had asked me during our engagement why I wanted to marry you, I would have said...”

Alternate sharing how you were feeling just moments before your wedding ceremony began.

You've heard the expression, "the grass is greener on the other side." The truth is, in marriage, the grass is greener where you water it. Take turns sharing a simple way your spouse can intentionally "water" you this week.

End your date by going to a quiet location. While holding hands, renew the following vows to each other.

• Husbands: I take you again to be my wedded wife. I promise to always love you, for better or for worse, in sickness and in health, in poverty and in wealth, from this day forward. I will honor and serve you, and be a faithful husband until we are separated by death.

• Wives: I take you again to be my wedded husband. I promise to always love you, for better or for worse, in sickness and in health, in poverty and in wealth, from this day forward. I will honor and serve you, and be a faithful wife until we are separated by death.

  You may now kiss your spouse. Feel free to take as long as you’d like.

Bonus Option

• Nothing is easier than saying words, and nothing is harder than living them date after day. To help you in this, post your wedding vows in a place where you will see them daily (mirror, laptop, office desk, etc.).
