Brief wedding vows for a husband at a beach ceremony

I remember that evening we walked the shore after the tide pulled back, and you stopped to show me a shell you swore was special. It wasn't, but I kept it anyway, because you were the one who found it.

I promise to keep noticing the small things you point out to me, even when I don't quite see what you see.

I promise to walk beside you, slow when you're slow, steady when the ground shifts.

You are my favorite find. I choose you today and every day after.

That same evening, I remember handing you that shell and watching you turn it over like it mattered. It did matter, because you were the one holding it.

I promise to keep finding small things worth showing you, even the ones that turn out to be nothing.

I promise to match your pace, to rest when you rest, to move when you're ready to move.

I kept looking until I found you. I'm done looking. I'm staying right here.
