Vow Renewal and Marriage Recommitment
Can we have another meaningful celebration ?
It is a wonderful idea to have a vow renewal or marriage recommitment in all sorts of circumstances.
Often the marriage took place when various important people were unable to attend, so it is a good idea to have another ceremony when those people can be present.
Sometimes the couple marries when they are overseas and they want to bring on board their family and friends in another ceremony.
Celebrating this way can be a helpful way of fixing things that have not been expressed adequately or in a way that later feels appropriate.
Sometimes our vows are recommitted after a significant trauma or distancing, and other times it is a celebration of a relationship that needs re-celebrating.
A word of caution: I am occasionally asked to 're-marry' people whose marriage has been kept a secret, with the intention that the second ceremony is to look like the proper marriage.
This cannot be done as there are legal ramifications in a marriage and it is unlawful for a celebrant to pretend to be marrying a couple when that is not the case.
Contact me to discuss how I conduct these ceremonies while still remaining within the law.
These ceremonies are very affirming and special for the couple and all who attend. I welcome your enquiries about how I can assist you to plan a unique, uplifting, meaningful and memorable ceremony.
