There is no better way of reaffirming your love for one another than with a Renewal of Vows. This is a time when you acknowledge how special your life together has been, and will continue to be in the future. Let me help you create a moment in time when you speak to each other from the heart.

Why are more people renewing their wedding vows?

• After the birth of a child or recovery after traumatic event or illness;
• Because of a pending separation by distance or call of duty;
• Because of tender wishes to revisit their commitment to each other;
• Because of a "quickie" marriage that didn't hold much meaning;
• Because of separation or problems and desiring to reconcile with ceremony;
• Because it is a fun way to celebrate your anniversary, regardless of the number of years.

All the elements of the traditional marriage ceremony are suitable for renewal of vows. It must be clear that this ceremony is a renewal, not a marriage.

Miami University in Ohio was the setting for a massive wedding vow renewal ceremony on Saturday, June 20, 2009. The event gathered 1,087 couples, beating the Guinness World Record of 624 couples in Pittsburgh in 2008.
