Write your own vows with Yorkshire celebrant Lisa Bourne

Couple exchanging rings in outdoor wedding ceremony

Yorkshire celebrant Lisa Bourne is on a mission to show couples that they can write their own vows and promises that really reflect them as a couple. "It seems like hard work, but it can be easy," Lisa says. "I've created an e-course called 6 Easy Steps To Write Your Own Vows. You get six emails straight into your inbox with all the information you need, including examples from real couples. Sign up to this excellent resource at https://lisabourne.wixsite.com/lisabourneceremonies/shop

Lisa is also developing a vow-writing game with Cards or Die and is looking for game testers. "The aim of the game is to help couples write meaningful vows while having fun with their partner," she explains. "You'll find questions and forfeits, serious and frivolous questions and it's totally inclusive. If you fancy giving it a go for free, all we ask is for feedback before we go into production."
