Ben and Joanna's Latin American fiesta wedding had some killer details like authentic Mexican fare, tap dancing, and a live jazz band. But their hand-written and super sweet vows stole our hearts. Want to hear them? I knew you would. Let's see how they incorporated breakfast, tiffs, hand-holding, and support systems to craft super personal vows.

Minster (M) to Ben: Do you promise to tuck Joanna into bed and make her breakfast in bed every morning, and to tell her a new reason why you love her every single day, and to make her feel good and protected as much as humanly possible?

M to Jo: Do you promise to always talk through arguments and resolve tiffs with Ben before you fall asleep, so that he can always enter dreams comforted and protected?

M to Ben: Do you vow to be open to trying new things with Joanna, such as ballroom dance and even tango lessons, to make her laugh and squeeze her hand very tightly when you are holding it, and to cherish and encourage her unconditionally for all the days of your life?

M to Jo: Do you vow to always celebrate Ben’s accomplishments, minor and major, be a strong support system to help guide him through the hard times, and be the number one mega fan of your one true love and best friend every day of your life?

Ben says: With this ring I do promise to be loving, honest, goofy, and supportive toward this woman, with whom I will spend the rest of my life as her partner, lover, and one true confidant.

Jo says: I knew half way into our first date six years ago that I’d finally found my person, and that we were meant to be life partners, and with this ring I do promise that I will do my part, 300 percent, to make our decision to be husband and wife, the best decision of our lifetimes.
