Renewing Wedding Vows and Special Anniversaries
Renewing wedding vows can take place in a ceremony that is either formal or informal,
brief or elaborate, serious or light hearted. The ceremony can
be at home, a restaurant,
a park or even the place where you were married.
The ceremony can be romantic and private, that includes just the couple and the celebrant,
or it may be part a large party with the kids and relatives.
Couples who wish
to renew their wedding vows often chose to do so at the time of
a significant anniversary (10, 15, 20 years and beyond of marriage together ) or an important
event such as recovering from a serious illness or in conjunction
with a special vacation or family reunion.
The renewing vows can be
personalized, and other rituals may be included that particularly
recognise family and friends.
Milestone wedding
anniversaries such as a Silver or Golden Anniversary often have
a ceremony as the focal point of the celebration. Such a ceremony
may include renewing vows, tributes from family members and friends,
and the presentation of gifts.
A ceremony when
renewing wedding vows or celebrating a Gold or Silver Anniversary
gives a couple time to reflect on what the years have meant and
what they hope for in the future.
I include a Certificate of Renewing Vows l
that is presented
to you at the end of the ceremony.
