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.

rituals. Spirituality is emphasized, not religious dogma. All readings and
rituals are offered in a universal context. Creative alternatives and solutions
are offered and welcomed. Begin or continue a process of healing and letting
go - with love and honor.
