What to Look For In Vow Books
A vow book is something that's both practical and sentimental. It needs to be sturdy enough to get you through the big day (shaking hands, tears, and all), and also last for the long haul—hopefully it's an heirloom that you will treasure for the duration of your marriage. Look for high quality materials that stand the test of time. Leather, heavy-duty papers, and wood are all great options. Keep the size small and handy, so it's easy to hold during the ceremony. Personalization adds an extra touch that makes the vow book feel special, whether it's for the individual or the couple.
