Renewal of Vows and Blessings Abroad

"I love your relaxed and honest approach to wedding planning." Quote from Sarah Lords Father.

Say I love you again.
At some point in your marriage you may decide that you would like to re-affirm your love for one another, a renewal of vows ceremony or wedding blessing abroad can be a unique opportunity to do this. Whether it's just 2 of you or with family and friends. These type of ceremonies are free from the rules and restrictions of a legal ceremony so offer more flexibility with content meaning that your ceremony can be more personal to you and your partner.

Wedding blessings are often associated with special anniversaries such as 10 or 25 years, however no matter when in your marriage you choose to bless your love, it's just as special.

A blessing is a good way to renew your love after experiencing a difficult or challenging time in your relationship.

Maybe your original wedding wasn't quite what you dreamed of so you want a second chance.

Perhaps you want to surprise a loved one, we especially like organising these!

A gift for your parents on a special anniversary.

You would like to bless your wedding in a more special setting following a civil wedding in the UK.

You want to have a ceremony abroad but without all the legal paperwork (a valid marriage certificate is necessary for this).

Give some thought to the type of ceremony and setting you would like. Do you want to include children or guests who were at the original wedding? Is there a special venue that particularly means a lot to you? By personalising your ceremony you can create a special day that will be meaningful for both you and your guests. For example unity candles and the passing of roses add a special significance to a wedding blessing.

Special Readings.
Often our couples like to personalise vows, exchange new rings or have a friend or relative read a special poem like this one below:
Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful or proud.
Love is never haughty or selfish or rude.
Love does not demand its own way.
Love is not irritable or touchy.
Love does not hold grudges and will hardly notice when others do it wrong.
Love is never glad about injustice, but rejoices whenever truth wins out.
If you love someone, you will be loyal to them no matter what the costs. You will always believe in them, always expect the best in them, and will always stand your ground in defending them.

Keep the love alive.
A wedding blessing can be anything you like, as simple or as flamboyant as you please, as traditional or symbolic as you desire and most of all personal to only you, no two ceremonies are the same. If you have an idea or want to discuss the possibilities with one of our wedding consultants then please contact us and start planning your special day...all over again!
