Wedding Vows Renewal

The Purpose of a Vow Renewal

A marriage vow renewal ceremony, also known as a wedding vow reaffirmation ceremony, is a ceremony where a married couple renews or reaffirms their original marriage vows as a way to celebrate and display their commitment to one another. There are no rules on marriage length, and when you can or shouldn't have a vow renewal, but here are some examples of why you may want to renew:

• For a big wedding anniversary (10th, 25th, 50th).
• Your children are older and you want them to be a part of your celebration.
• You want to have a larger celebration than the one you were able to have when you got married.
• You have overcome some difficult times in your marriage, are stronger for it, and want to recommit to your love and start over.
• A method to reignite the newness and passion in your marriage.
• A way of saying goodbye to your spouse due to illness.

Whatever the reason, your vow renewal can be a wonderful and meaningful milestone in your marriage.
