Another way of saying "for richer for poorer etc..."

I am writing my own vows and would like to end with something similar to the traditional "church" vows which are:

"for richer and for poorer and in sickness and in health" - does anyone have any alternatives to these as the civil registrar won't let me have them as they are taken from the church wedding wording!

Ta!

Thanks chococlate_e - I already have those words just before it, but struggling for what other words to add!

Have sent you an email with our options for vows as I think they are copyright so best not to post on WWW!

We had the same problem!

I don't have a copy of the words we used to hand but from memory it was something like: "I promise in the presence of our families and friends to stay by your side as your faithful husband/wife, through the good times and the bad, in prosperity and in hardship, whether healthy or sick. All that I have, and all that I am, I give to you; I promise to love you without reservation, comfort you in times of need, and be open and honest with you always, for as long as I shall live". Think there was something after that too but I've forgotten the wording and the order now, sorry!

So ours is:

I promise to care for you with love and friendship, to support and comfort you through good times and through troubled times. I promise to care for you with love and patience, to respect and cherish you and to be faithful always. These promises I make to you for the rest of my life.
