Civil Wedding in Poland - can I write my own vows?

Hello my name is Steve and I live in Rzeszow.

I am going to be getting married soon and I was curious to know if I can write my own vows at a civil wedding or I will need to repeat the polish vows that are being said?

My polish is "below par" so I am worried I might make some mistakes repeating the words in Polish.

Any clarification would be appreciated!

Thank you!

Steve, my understanding is the ceremony is all in Polish and that if you don't speak Polish you'll need to have a translator, as per the information provided here bip.erzeszow.pl/sprawy-obywatelskie/sprawy-urzedu-stanu-cywilnego/zawieranie-zwiazku-malzenskiego

If you wanted to say something specific to your bride to be in English I'm sure they wouldn't mind this. A quick visit to the marriage office in plac ofiar getta would answer your question. I'm also in Rzeszow and when my misses and I went to enquire about the ceremony we were greeted by a non too friendly lady, ended up eloping and getting married in Gibraltar as it was much easier.
