In this world where divorce seems to be the norm, a couple managing to stay together through thick and thin deserves some celebration! If you and your spouse have made it to a significant anniversary, or you just want to have a "do-over" wedding, consider a vow renewal.
 You want to celebrate your 5-year, 10-year, 25-year etc. wedding anniversary.- You only got married legally before, and now want to marry religiously.
- You only got married religiously before, and now want to marry legally.
- Your first wedding had some element of disaster, and you want a do-over.
- You didn't have much money for your first wedding, and you want a more elaborate wedding.
- You got married with only a few people present, and you'd like to say wedding vows in front of lots of family and friends.
- You've had some rocky times in your relationship, and would now like to reaffirm your commitment to one another.
- You think it would be romantic.
A Bad Reason to Have a Vow Renewal Ceremony
- You miss wedding planning and want to throw another party. The focus of any wedding, but especially a vow renewal, should be the promises you are making to each other, and the sacred ritual of marriage, not the party.
