Noémi & Paul got married

Our Vows

On the first day of the week, the 30th day of the month of Av in the year 5765, corresponding to Sunday, September 4, 2005, in Montclair, New Jersey, USA, Noemi and Paul entered into a mutual covenant as husband and wife, loving and supportive companions in life, and said each to the other:

"I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine"

I choose you. I have chosen you every day for years, and I will every day for the rest of my life.

I choose you to be my best friend. I will let you know everything there is to know about me, and I will trust that you will still like me.

I choose you to care for me. And I choose to guard your wellbeing: material, physical and spiritual.

Love has to be made fresh, every day, like bread. I choose to make love with you.

I choose to make my home with you. It will flow with milk and honey - sustenance and sweetness - contentment and delight.

I choose to stay by your side through bad times as well as good.

I choose to multiply our love by keeping our family ties close and by strengthening our communities.

And together with you I choose to throw hope into the world, by raising children of our own.

I choose you to help me hasten the coming of a world of peace, justice, and human kindness.

I choose you to remind me that imperfect as it is, the world and everyone in it is still a miracle.

We joyfully enter into this covenant and solemnly accept its obligations. Our promise to each other, in the presence of loving family and friends, is valid and binding.
