Getting married to your partner-in-life and adventure the first time around is undeniably special. Now imagine your lives 5, 10, 25, 50 years later. For many, it’s hard to picture! But there’s usually a hopeful vision full of goals to achieve and dreams to manifest. The truth is life will deliver all kinds of detours and surprises that will add to your journey.

Over the course of your married lives, you’ll likely experience the highs and lows that come with living this human experience. You’ll travel, change careers, start a business, buy a home, move, graduate, grow your family with fur and/or human children, lose loved ones, and everything in between. You’ll experience those normal day to day moments of figuring out what to eat for dinner, folding laundry, walking your dog, and choosing the next series to binge.

Some years test you, take a toll, and wear you down. Some years are reenergizing, transformative, and exhilarating! Some years, you don’t quite recognize each other and others, you couldn’t feel any closer. The truth is working through the challenges and getting through the hard stuff is part of your growth as individuals and a couple. It’s as much a part of the journey and deserves to be celebrated. 

Renewing your vows is not only a sign of recommitment but a moment to reflect on your lives with a bit of pride and a whole lotta love. Whether you plan a vow renewal alongside your community or choose an intimate adventure, just the two of you, your vow renewal will be this magical moment set in the middle of your busy lives that you’ll treasure.
