RENEWAL OF VOWS
There are times when a married couple may feel it is appropriate to express and
renew their love and commitment. Such renewal ceremonies are full of warmth and feeling.
Re-affirmation or renewal of vows ceremonies are also suitable for married
couples, who, after separation, are seriously re-united. Some have also felt the
need for such a ceremony, when their original wedding ceremony, for one reason
or another, was meaningless to them. The third and most common reason is to
re-affirm the marriage on the occasion of an anniversary.
These renewal ceremonies are arranged exactly the same as marriage ceremonies. There is
one point of differentiation, however, which is extremely important. Each
introduction must be unique. It is best for the couple to spend an hour or two
with the celebrant discussing the ceremony and why they wish to have it. The
celebrant should then write the introduction and check it back with the parties
concerned to see if it expresses their views accurately. If this is not done the
ceremony, at this state of its development, may not be successful. It may also
be necessary to write personal vows relevant to the couples changed
circumstances and hopes for the future.
There are no legal requirements for a Renewal of Vows so no birth or marriage
certificates are required.
