[@a_baub8005]

Girl same 😂

[@karenwalters1211]

Getting married in a week. Starting mine tonight.

[@shannonsnell1533]

My husband (we eloped first) talks sooo much and is so long winded. I told him 2-3 minutes and he told me I can't tell him how to express his love for me. lol Pray for me.

[@timberseay-binkley6705]

We did too!! We eloped in 2018 but are having our wedding in five days. So good to see others have done the same 💜

[@squigley4809]

I’m doing this. In eloping on Friday and then big stuff in December hopefully

[@taylergrayson8381]

We eloped in July 2020 and are having the wedding tomorrow!! Congrats to you guys ☺️

[@sabrinaguerra78]

[@alexisreynolds4277]

That's really cute 😆

[@anjanaecapri5515]

Wow this video could not be more perfectly timed. That's the last thing on our to do list. Jamie is a wizard!!!!!!

[@valerielinares2068]

"You're a WIZZARD, Harry!" LOL!

[@lunarvyx4005]

Watching this 3 days before our wedding and I'm stuck on my vows 😅 Thank you so much for this video!

[@damariselizabethbautista9723]

Same here 😂

[@anggieperez8584]

You’re probably the only channel I let the ads run for, thank you for all your help ! ❤️

[@ameliaakers2290]

Same! Lol I was like "damnit I hate these ads but I love Jamie so I'm going to let them play for her..."

[@anggieperez8584]

Amelia Akers 😂 That’s exactly what goes through my mind !

[@bridgettdent4416]

Me too! I appreciate her SO MUCH!

[@inhighdefinition1111]

Same cause she explicitly asked and made realize “hell yeah I wanna support”

Tips for Vow writing: I have all of my messages that I sent to him on his birthday, Valentine’s Day or anniversary on my phone notes to use some sentences for this future reference. As I see other wedding videos and hear other vows if I like something they said and I feel like I relate I write it down in a notebook I have. As of now I have a list of sentences which I will put together and add some more for the special day. Also my fiancé and I have discussed on wanting to do our own vows but maybe sharing somethings with certain extended family or church people wasn’t intimate so we decided to do our very intimate vows during the first look and the traditional “I do’s” for the ceremony and possibly with a small note vow just to have some words that are still loving, meaningful and we wouldn’t care of certain people heard them.

[@rubymoon9079]

Great idea 🥰 I found some old love letters that I was thinking of using for inspiration 💕

[@jordanhill9261]

I’m over here crying and I haven’t I even written my vows yet 😭

[@adlza88]

Getting married in a week and a half and I just landed at the procrastination station ! This is probably the most helpful video I’ve seen and I’ve probably went through about 12 videos on how to write vowels. I love the template idea. This video made managing my ideas and what I wanted to say so much more organized. Thank you!

[@michelleleal4464]

Perfect timing! Seriously! We're getting married this Saturday and I've procrastinated. Lol thanks Jamie!!!❤❤

[@reekahd7695]

Aww happy first year anniversary!!

[@johnnygalvan5202]

Thx for your help... wrote mine today and will be married in 2 days. I timed myself speaking it out loud....3 minutes.

[@clairehung8311]

Thank you!! Procrastination queen here too hehe, 2 weeks before and yes it’s a whirlwind. Here we go……..

[@shutupsarahh]

omg you say 2-3 minutes and my anxiety SKY ROCKETS

[@clumsyninja1172]

I have been watching your channel for like 5 or 6 months! I just got engaged 3 weeks ago, but your content is so encompassing that I feel ready to take on wedding planning. I am so grateful to you! (Hoping to get Master Plan once we start getting into the nitty-gritty of it all)

[@kailebrogan447]

The master plan is amazing and there's a sale right now. But it's your choice. Congratulations

[@2015SFA]

This helped so much. How my fiancé and I met... he's my brothers best friend haha and we finally started dating after ten years of knowing each other! Fun times lol. My family and his are so amazing and love us and it was meant to be. Good luck to everyone on your special day!

[@robinruane6255]

I was so proud of my idea to get pretty blank cards and I printed out my vows & taped them inside mine, hubby wrote his in his card... gave them to the JP and never saw them again until I asked for them back 2 days later. We went back to the beach where we had our wedding and said our vows to each other on the last day of our honeymoon.

[@lindsaymoser3114]

Robin Ruane that’s so sweet! And special

[@robinruane6255]

Thanks ❤ I wish we had gotten to say the vows we wrote during our wedding ceremony but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. It was funny because on the way to give them to the JP I told my husband that I had a feeling we were dropping them into the abyss. Little did I know 😉

[@bang-uptilly6892]

This is so helpful! I have been so stuck on forming words and how to start. This helped so much! Thank you

[@shannonwooten6154]

Well this video was Long-awaited and much-needed.. in the past months so much has changed and now with 18 days before my wedding we Have had to cancel the Caterer and the cake and the reception and cut the guest list and downsized to just an intimate ceremony. we are in Arizona, My fiancé’s daughters are stuck on the East Coast, my dad and step mom are stuck in Iowa and it’s been a mess but we are persevering and just ready to get married and spend the rest of our lives together. In 18 days we will vow to love and honor through good times and bad and persevering through this coronavirus apocalypse is a testament that we can.

[@valerielinares2068]

Some great tips here! I added it to my "Wedding Tricks & Tips" playlist - even though I'm not even engaged yet, lol!

[@ryleejohnson1938]

Valerie Linares Same! I’ve been watching Jaime for months but am not engaged 😂

[@cheryllynn988]

Bahahah, I've been watching Jamie since she first startered this channel and I'm not engaged either 😂

[@irishredhead14]

I am absolutely dreading writing my vows and speaking in front of everyone that will be at our wedding. But these tips should help a lot thank you!

[@antoineparker7929]

Thanks for sharing this info. I get married in 9 days an I was nervous about writing them. But I got it now.

[@Shadeadder]

I'm so glad my man and I are staunchly Trad Catholics and thus will use the traditional vows of Latin Mass. We take comfort in the tradition behind it. I can't imagine trying to come up with my own!

[@rebelgirl6252]

Off topic, but Jamie i LOVE your hair! It looks so good when it's up! 💙

[@elenamarmo3458]

Thank you!!!! This is great. Until now, the idea of writing my vows seemed unapproachable because I was letting the worry of making them "perfect" get in the way.

[@emmadawson1158]

Can you do a video on tips and tricks if you have a friend/relative officiating your wedding?

[@margolucas470]

Your makeup looks incredible!

[@kenideg1558]

Makeup looks gorgeous on you

[@recel9598]

Literally four days out lol. Thank you for the tips!! 🎉

[@Teresa-en1ft]

5 days over lol

[@EBoone503]

How have I missed this video? I have watched just about all of them and then this one pops up! 🤗🤗

[@rachjade8785]

Been for a my run, got my overnight oats and cup of tea, ready for Jamie! No better start to the morning ❤️

[@alansixx3446]

I've written my vows 2 years ago but I'm not satisfied with how it sounds so hopefully this video can show me how i can perfect it before the wedding.

[@shandelvega]

Thinking about doing our vows to ourselves personally during our wedding day. Just makes it more personal and less nerve wrecking reading infront of everyone lol

[@daynagould1497]

Same!

[@sum12sumwhere]

I am most nervous about this task I believe. My partner isnt much of a talker and I dont want to have a overly drawn out ceremony. I also want to make it special and not feel rushed through

[@adiposeNarnian]

Not gonna lie, I clicked just to see Jamie with that stellar hair and lip combo.

[@d.w.2908]

I really enjoy that you are paing Attention on so many Details. Acually I really Love that you are this (AS you say) "worried" Kind of Person. It helps us a Lot to overthink Details from a diffent Angle. Really Love your Channel and aprieciate the amout of Work you Put Into this. Thank you so much. Will give you thumbs Up every time. Thank you thank you

[@iluvzurara2]

We already decided we wouldn’t do vows haha neither of us like public speaking but i know i will also cry immediately haha i tear up just thinking about all the sappy mushy stuff haha

[@marierodriguez6317]

Thank you for making videos even in this difficult time.

[@euponines2000]

The procrastination is real! Getting married in two days

[@Gabviotahh]

I get married in 3! 😂

[@lorettadavis550]

I'm renewal my vows but did not do any vows for my 1st wedding. So doing this vlog is just what I needed. My wedding date is August 8th 2020. Hoping Covid-19 doesn't cancel my special day. You looks absolutely stunning and I appreciate your expertise🌷🌷🌷

[@lopezj1011]

Well did your special day happen back in 2020?

[@snappinback5252]

It’s two days before my wedding & im writing them now🤦😅 thank you for your help though!

[@saradirksen7711]

Jamie! Great videos, I have a request for a video about planning LGBTQ+ weddings. Have you ever planned a "gay" wedding? Anything different (besides all the hetero verbage in all of the vendor contracts) that I should be aware of? Thank you for all the great ideas by the way! Your channel is wonderful ♥️♥️🌈🌈🌈

[@rachelcox791]

I love, love, love this video!!! So helpful 💕

[@jennyjesseisloislane]

3 days til the wedding and I’m watching this at work…I’m doing as you did not as you said Jamie. Sorry 😅

[@kenideg1558]

Just started watching your channel yesterday I got great tips for my wedding but I’m only 16😂 love you girlie❤️

[@janboleyn]

Thinking of you and this is the first video I see when I opened KZbin 🤍🤍

[@lilred5339]

I was suuuper nervous about writing my vows (Mainly because I had no idea what I was doing) but this has totally cleared things up :D

[@Isabella7448]

Jamie, this channel is saving my life. Thank you, kisses from Brazil.

[@Yaya-gd6to]

I loveeeeeee your Chanel.... thank you for your content!

[@wendy645]

Jamie, I love your content so much that I just watched through two ads to support you, and I *abhor* ads. Lots of love your way - thank you for your lovely content! I'm not engaged yet, but I'm a total wedding-holic and you're my favorite content creator in the industry! 💒👰

[@erikaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Jamie, could you please make a video about postponing your wedding due to coronavirus (or any reason?). Do I need to re-send invitations? What if one of my vendors is booked on my new date? Love your videos

[@treboltreacy9498]

Im glad i saw this and very usefull! ❤️👍🏻 i still got 4 weeks 💪🏻😜

[@alohilanizapata53]

I love this Rock Pirate vibe you have going on btw, and thank you so much for the extra tips on the vows writing!!

[@Jessicapinkrose06]

You're the best!!!

[@kimberlytolson6342]

I love your videos! They have really helped me with planning my wedding ❤

[@tiandramua6275]

OMG‼️ thank you so much!!! I love you’re channel

[@brianneberg4567]

I'm thinking about just taking the vows from my favorite show Outlander ^_^

[@tigertills]

hi Jamie, love your channel, would you consider doing a indoor vs outdoor wedding, struggling to decide which I want to do

[@tiffanyrutherford388]

Love your videos girl! Hoping this crazy mess of a world returns to normal so I can still get married in September 🤞🏻

[@Mrs--ld2qi]

Me too! ❤❤

[@kristin4241]

Same here

[@coookiemonster95]

This was such a helpful video, Jamie!! Thanks so much

[@happydodgegirlevans2233]

You are so amazing!!!!Thank You for all your videos!!!!! I am getting married to my soulmate in July 2020! Can you please do a video on 2nd Brides and beautiful diy ideas. Love Christy

[@stephyjadeeb2639]

This is the video I’ve been waiting for! Granted I now have another year to write them due to the mess that’s going on with covid 19..... but still finally some guidance ahaha

[@claraborisov01]

My goal is to include as many nerdy quotes as possible. Somehow , somewhere there will be a princess bride quote.

[@LostArtOfAbby]

Do you have a winter wedding video!

[@MeganQuada]

I love writing, so I’m not so much nervous on what the content of my vows will be. I’m just terrified of speaking in front of everyone. Gotta love stage fright. 😓 Any tips for that?

[@kristin4241]

Honestly, since we feel the same, we don't wanna do it in front of the guests, but keep it simple and sweet but still write vows which we want to exchange before the wedding, when getting ready ;)

[@MK-leaves]

Thank you so much!!! I needed this help so much!

[@Lucyhenry1509]

I'm just watching to watch.

[@sophieedens9928]

Just found out my fiance is writing his own vows...didn't think we were doing that, so good thing you did this video!

[@courtneymcgregor2542]

Do you have advice on choosing between private vow exchange vs choosing to write and read your own vows at the ceremony?

[@americantoadsarecool]

I need help! My wedding is cancelled bc of COVID and I want to know how to handle it. I am hoping to elope with just my fiancé and our roommates to adhere to social distancing and then live-streaming it. We would have a vow renewal/public wedding when this is all over and I was wondering how to handle the second set of vows. Same ones? Vow renewal ones instead of classic wedding? Looking for advice!

[@michelleleal4464]

Same here! Our April 4th wedding is still happening but only a couple people present and live streaming! Anywho we're planning our vow renewal for next year but I dont know how to go about it!

[@americantoadsarecool]

Michelle Leal we are all in this together! My fiancé and I are just trying to focus on how lucky we are to have each other but it is so stressful. Best of luck to you ❤️

[@caitlinbishop6624]

I’m in the same boat. Doing the same thing - and have been super confused as to what the ceremony will look like at our vow renewal/reception thingy lol

[@kailebrogan447]

I'd write new ones and sharing how you two made it through this hard time together

[@americantoadsarecool]

Kaile Brogan I have thought about that. Don’t know if it will be a bummer or not though. Plus we are very fortunate to be able to work from home so the lockdown is disappointing but not too bad for us. It has given me confidence though that even staying in our tiny apartment 24/7 with no one but each other that we are still very happy after 4 weeks. :)

[@gindymartin8979]

Really great advice ❤️

[@victoriae6311]

Thanks for the informative video! Would you be able to do a video on microweddings (~30ppl or less)?

[@emmacruz7021]

MY WEDDINGS IN TWO DAYS OMG

[@adiposeNarnian]

Also a small, simple, silly suggestion: if you are writing something, like a wedding vow, that will have to be read or recited aloud, try to work the phrasing to avoid the letter S (and other harsh sounds to a lesser degree, but if you go back and read this aloud, you may find that from the words "small, simple, silly suggestion", you hated me).

[@nataliekoen2967]

So, my wedding is on May 15th, and we don't know what's gonna happen yet, we're trying to continue getting things ready as much as normal, but we're starting to dab in the hypothetical as far the postponement of it all. Due to the longgevitiy of our long distance relationship come hell or high water we still want to get married, but we're also kind of wondering if people will still come to the big (planned for 280 people) shin dig we've got planned if we elope and then do a big ceremony and reception for everyone later on. Thoughts?

[@Tomatoemom]

That’s a lot of people in a not long from now point! I think at this point the unfortunate reality is that you will need to postpone 😞. My heart is with all the spring/summer 2020 brides because this has got to me so stressful

[@caitlinbishop6624]

Keila Marina my wedding was for May 16th and we are eloping that day and having our big party in October! Similar situation, we have been together for 6 years and do not live together & are not going to postpone our marriage just because we can’t have the wedding. I don’t worry about anyone not coming because they know we eloped, our friends and family have been so excited for us to be married for so long and I know they’re all ready to party and celebrate with us and I’m sure that your friends and family are the same way. :)

[@Tomatoemom]

Caitlin Bishop that’s great! I would do the same if I were in the same situation. Our wedding isn’t until April 2021. Hopefully by then things will feel somewhat normal! Otherwise if it isn’t then we would just elope :)

[@rr_spec1809]

Take them on a journey of why you fell in love and why you will stay in love or at the least into the foreseen future. Vows shouldn’t be a copy and pasted thing. It should be the journey you did and are on with each other with promises to not allow the things they fell in love with you to disappear

[@cc_animals]

Can you do a full video on hichswitch please trying to figure out how it all works and when toget it? Please and thank you I love watching your videos!!!!

[@kristalowe6408]

Hey! Just curious what song you were playing in the first minute of your video?

[@mayagriffin2826]

Very timely.

[@mirsey93]

We are not even close to writing our vows (I've got some faux flowers waiting for me when I'm less busy with school 😉) but this was helpful as always Jamie ♥️🙏

[@jordantaylor7904]

In my state we typically have just a reception (cuz Utah;P) but I’m looking to do a ceremony and short reception! Any tips on how to make that work? We don’t do things like a dinner, and the reception is typically flowing. Any advice on how to still make it special and not feel cheap or rushed??

[@your.local_ghost]

this saved me thank u

[@MrsAlexCampbell]

Can you have a wedding registry if you’re going to have a courthouse wedding?

[@SamRadecki]

Alex Ortiz absolutely! Many people want to gift you things when you get married so you can have the registry Incase anyone wants to gift you anything. (: Feel free to hop on over to my channel, too. I post wedding planning videos every Wednesday 🥰

[@laurenmatthews2908]

I follow both your channels, I LOVE this channel though and I’m not even engaged yet. I learn so much every time and you’re hilarious. I seriously wish there could be daily videos! 🙌🏽

[@michaelthompson9548]

Good tips.

[@aamariamason4562]

Everyone getting married tomorrow or in a week and here I am 5 years early

[@iamsoupi]

I’ll probably come back to this vid in a few and update y’all😂

[@emmamcdonell6478]

I can't figure out if the story about our relationship is told directly to my partner (you and I) in second person or with the audience as the audience (Eddie and I). Can you help me out? thanks!

[@asthmaplasma6019]

Is it to cheesy to make my vows into a poem? Like it rhymes and everything is that bad?

[@jasminebrown6858]

That's exactly what I thought about doing so no I don't think it's cheesy to do so.

[@kaitlinhussey2838]

I SUCK at writing out my feelings. I don’t have a journal for a reason and I can’t speak publicly to save my life. Please help

[@JMAN112378]

Welp I pulled a high school move 😂

[@mylieherman3958]

Last couple weeks, the whole world could be in the middle of a pandemic and the country is almost on lockdown 😭

[@teapennell3016]

I get married in 5 months and I am on my 6th draft 😂 I am a perfectionist

[@cherierose713]

i have 6 days to write my vows lmao

[@rr_spec1809]

If you have to be on the same page your doing it to please the crowd and it’s not about you and your spouse. At that point it’s to look like you both know each other versus just how you perceive the life you’ve lived and see moving forward. Vows are for your partner not the crowd, screw the crowd if they don’t understand it. 🤷‍♂️

[@jenniferabbate7298]

I never got married

[@EvilJack2]

I don’t know that you know what spitroast means. 😂

[@candacewebb120]

💞🤍💞🤍💞💒📜✍🏻

[@hardchooligan]

I love your advice but I have to respectfully disagree on one point and that's the inside jokes. If you are a couple that loves inside jokes you should do them and give zero explanation or backstory because that moment isnt for the crowd its for your spouse. As long as they understand that's all that matters and if people don't like it they need to stop being selfish and let you have YOUR moment. During the toast I agree not to many jokes because that's for everyone,but the vows are the couples one moment just for them and they should do it however they want. Just my 2 cents,love your channel!

[@alaskanhobbit7748]

i think inside jokes are fine, the vows are for the people getting married, not the people watching.

[@emilyestrada6863]

James Charles is that you?
