I Promise You walks you through these promises, showing you practical ways to make them work in your marriage. If you give these gifts to each other, you will begin your marriage the right way. If you continue to give them through all the ups and downs of daily married life, you will grow in love and compatibility throughout your lifetime together.

You’ll make those promises before God, your family, your friends, and all who have come to witness your marriage. You’ll exchange rings that symbolize your commitment to those promises.
