Vow Renewals

A Renewal of Vows Ceremony is a meaningful, loving
and romantic ceremony for you and your partner. Spirituality, love, relationship, marriage and family
are emphasized. It’s also a wonderful re-affirmation of
your love and commitment for your children, families and special friends. Significant anniversaries are
an especially appropriate time for renewing your commitment and love for one another. Often couples comment on how surprisingly romantic the ceremony felt!

Annemarie offers a selection of vows, blessings and rituals which are appropriate for mature love – whether you are renewing your vows after 2 years or 25 years. Some couples choose to take the very same vows as when they first wed. Others write new vows to reflect where they are now in life.

Sometimes new rings are purchased for the occasion. During your ceremony, Annemarie offers readings, rituals and verse which celebrate every tradition, creed and culture. And there are wonderful ways to involve your children and grandchildren in the ceremony.

What questions must you ask before selecting your Officiant to renew your vows? Go to Top 10 Things To Consider When Selecting a Celebrant.

Annemarie looks forward to meeting with you to custom create, write and design your vow renewal ceremony. If you have more specific questions on your vow renewal ceremony that you want answered now, please go to FAQ's .

And if you're seeking superior vendors for your wedding, please go to resources for my personal recommendations.

Annemarie has dedicated the past 15 years of her volunteer life to animal rescue and has been with dozens of animals at the end of their life.
