Let me tell you, one of the hardest things about planning my own wedding was trying to write the wedding ceremony. I was not a fan of the traditional vows (I obey no one but myself thankyouverymuch) and really wanted to find something that reflected our concept of what we wanted our relationship to be. If you're in the same boat and looking for alternative vows here's a few from the amazing and truly missed Robin Williams. As a child of the 80's, I loved him and felt like I knew him. How sweet a memorial would it be to use a few of his best movie lines and quotes about love in your wedding ceremony?

"Good Will Hunting"
You're not perfect, sport, and let me save you the suspense: this girl you've met, she's not perfect either. But the question is whether or not you're perfect for each other.
"What Dreams May Come"
You have to break in half to love somebody.
"Good Will Hunting"
You don't know about real loss because it only occurs when you've loved something more than you love yourself.
"The Big Wedding"
Marriage is a triumph of imagination over intelligence.
I used to think the worst thing in life was to end up all alone, it’s not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people that make you feel alone.
"Good Will Hunting"
But you've never looked at a woman and been totally vulnerable. Known someone that could level you with her eyes, feeling like God put an angel on earth just for you. Who could rescue you from the depths of hell. And you wouldn't know what it's like to be her angel, to have that love for her, be there forever, through anything.
You will have bad times, but they will always wake you up to the stuff you weren’t paying attention to.
