Do they have to be religious or can you pick what you want? If you can pick what you want I LOVE the lyrics to 'Grow Old Along with Me' by John Lennon:

Grow old along with me
The best is yet to be
When our time has come
We will be as one
God bless our love
God bless our love
Grow old along with me
Two branches of one tree
Face the setting sun
When the day is done
God bless our love
God bless our love
Spending our lives together
Man and wife together
World without end
World without end
Grow old along with me
Whatever fate decrees
We will see it through
For our love is true
God bless our love
God bless our love

I LOVE that. I'm definitely asking our priest if it has to be from the bible. Thanks for posting it!!!

ditto, plus if you have an understanding priest see if he will allow 'nonreligious' readings that may have sentimental value to you and your Fh....i'm using Martin luther king, we're writing our own vows, and a few other things and my priest was like 'sure, it's your wedding'. it never hurts to ask.
