There are many reasons a couple may choose to celebrate and reaffirm their love and commitment to each other by a vow renewal ceremony. Just like any celebration it may be a small or large scale celebration. It is not a legal ceremony but a symbolic, sentifmental ceremony and can be done after any length of time after the wedding ceremony.
The following is not exhaustive but covers some common reasons:
-
Couple married in a different country/state/region and wanting to have another ceremony with friends in their regular
country/state/region. -
Style of original ceremony doesn’t fit with who they are now – original was non-religious and now they have strong beliefs, or vice versa.
-
Couple have gone through a particularly difficult period (a multitude of reasons might apply) and want to mark a new and positive ‘fresh start’.
-
A significant anniversary
It was so neat to celebrate with Rose & James last year in June when I had the privilege of witnessing them say “I still do” when they celebrated 30 years married. A big congratulations to you both, now at 31 years.
