They said we'd never make it, But now we've come this far. Today we celebrate our love, And honor who we are.  We had a hard beginning, Adults before our time. But growing up together made, Our deepest roots entwine. You are my life, my love, my hope, My friend, my world, my song, The mirror of my unseen heart, The place where I belong. And as our one life passes, Through love we live for two: A cornucopia of joy, That we this day renew.

There are many reasons for couples to renew their wedding vows - and it makes a wonderful gift to give your parents too!

The primary reason marriages fail is because the romance whitters away. Over the years, grievances and hurts add up - with it difficult to find a way to leave those all behind. A renewal of vows ceremony is both a re-affirmation and a renewal - for which mistakes and regrets can be left behind.

Renewal of Vows ceremonies are often used by couples who married at the courthouse - who now what a REAL ceremony. Renewal ceremonies are often given as gifts by children to their parents as a way of saying thank you - or even in return for all the time and expense the parents put into their wedding.
Sometimes such ceremonies are in the setting of a family reunion.

Usually, Renewal of Vows are held on the couples anniversary date - which may well be a mid-week evening wedding at the home. A renewal of vows ceremony can be as formal or causal as you wish.

Few things more rekindle a marriage than a formal renewal of marriage vows. No license is required for this.
