WEDDING VOW WRITING SERVICE

Help me write my vows!

Wedding Words by Katelyn provides a custom vow writing service to remove your stress and spark excitement when it comes to writing your wedding vows.

Why should you hire a wedding vow writer?

Just like you’d hire a wedding planner to organize the reception or a baker to create a delicious three-tiered cake, you can hire a wedding vow ghostwriter to provide help with writing your wedding vows. 

Start the Process

“Hands down the absolute best decision of my wedding planning process was choosing to work with Katelyn!”

– Nikki

Who should hire a wedding vow writing service?

Hiring a wedding vow writing service might be for you if…

  • You’re worried about sounding generic and crave being able to articulate the love you feel in a way that’s authentic to your voice.

  • You’re ready to have peace of mind, and the confidence to recite your vows because they’ve been thoughtfully prepared in advance, not hurriedly scribbled the night before or generated by a soulless robot. 

At Katelyn’s Wedding Words, I work one-on-one with every bride and groom to provide completely custom wedding vows. Plus, I provide a personalized video—made just for you— to walk you through how to deliver your unique wedding vows and how to overcome common public speaking fears.

“Can’t recommend highly enough! Was so easy. You won’t be disappointed using Katelyn!”

– Scott

What’s the process like when you hire a wedding vow writing service?

  • TALKING & LISTENING

    First we’ll meet over a video call. I ask the right questions to understand your love story, what makes your relationship unique, and why you chose to marry this person. This is my favorite part. And it's so totally conversational—you'll enjoy sharing your love story details too. 

  • WRITING & STORYTELLING

    Then I begin writing with one goal in mind—to write what's already in your heart. No clichés, no templates, no questionnaire you have to complete. It's your story. I'm just wordsmithing what to include and remove, how to make the words flow, and which themes can be used to tie everything together. 

  • FEEDBACK & REVISIONS

    You’ll provide feedback on parts you really love and you'll likely become inspired to add or change a few lines too. You can send as much feedback as you want. I love editing. I’ll revise the draft and then you’ll receive completed wedding vows that you’ll truly love.

  • DELIVERING & EQUIPPING

    Along with the finalized wedding vows, you’ll also receive a personalized video. In this video I explain how to recite your vows with impact and poise. I’ll also review how you can overcome common public speaking fears.

“She took the words right out of my heart and soul and wrote the most amazing vows. I reached out Katelyn because I was too emotionally overwhelmed when it came to writing my vows. She helped me do something I just couldn't put in writing.”

– Stephanie

Wedding Vow Writing Service FAQ

  • The process is completely custom. At Katelyn’s Wedding Words, we do not believe in using vow templates. We also do not believe in having you fill out a questionnaire. This is not an effective way to learn your unique love story.

    Instead, we have a video call. During this call, I’ll ask you a series of questions to discover your personal story. I record the audio of our call and this is used as the basis for your custom wedding vows.

    I’ve had clients describe the vow writing service as stress-free and fun. I’ve been repeatedly told the vow service exceeded expectations.

  • I earned my B.A. in journalism and my writing has been published in places such as Chicken Soup for the Soul, The Everygirl, Wedding Chicks, Aisle Perfect, Destination I Do, and Bridal Musings. But these are just my “professional bio credits.”

    The real reason that I’m qualified to be a vow writer?

    I adore learning someone’s story. I’m moved by how a person has overcome challenges, what makes them who they are, and what motivates them. I see everyone’s story as something special that should be shared. So when I hear about a person’s love story—I can visualize how to frame that story and articulate it into wedding vows that will capture that person’s feelings in the most impactful way. 

  • I do not post actual wedding vow copy I’ve written for couples as it’s their personal vows. I will however share wedding videos from couples who provide their permission.

  • Clients come to me stressed and anxious with one plea—”Help me write my vows!” They leave calm and confident with love notes of their own about how great their experience was with Katelyn’s Wedding Words.

    You can click through here to read client testimonials or you can read our reviews from WeddingWire and The Knot.

  • Yes! In working with couples, I know that writing custom wedding vows is only half of a bride or grooms challenge. The other half is overcoming their fear of public speaking. I help with both areas.

    Once you’ve approved a finalized version of the wedding vows, I create a personalized video for you. In this video, your personalized wedding vows are on the screen and I walk you through line-by-line how to effectively deliver your wedding vows.

    For example, I will point out which words you may want to really emphasize or which parts you should pause after—knowing the guests are going to giggle a bit.

    These public speaking queues will make your vows more impactful.

    Within the video, I also include general tips for how to overcome common public speaking fears like being worried you’ll be too emotional to speak.

    You can set your anxiety aside—I’ve got you covered.

  • I promise you this—your wedding vows will be amazing! This is a common concern but you really do not need to worry.

    You have a beautiful love story and meaningful things to say to your future spouse.

    We’ll work together to identify which parts are most important to share and I’ll wordsmith your thoughts and feelings into wedding vows that you’ll be excited to share and proud to rewatch on your wedding video.

  • Yes! If the one-on-one custom vow writing service is not the approach you’re looking to take right now, Katelyn’s Wedding Words does offer a vow editing service.

    The vow editing service is for the bride or groom who would like to write their own vows but needs help putting the polishing touches on it.

    We’ll help to make sure you have an organized structure in place and that the overall message within your vows is being communicated in the most articulate and impactful way.

  • Yes! I work with couples to write their unique how we met story.

    Most couples use the story on their wedding website, at their wedding reception as decor, and as a keepsake at their home.

    This also makes for a wonderful wedding day or anniversary gift.
