Renewing wedding vows

[loobylou]

It will be our 10th wedding anniversary next year (29th aug) and want to spend it in Florida. I thought it would be nice if we renewed our vows while we were there as family and friends are going too. Has anybody any experiences of doing this or information on it? It''s my friends 40th birthday too and she wants to do a cruise!

LOOBYLOU, my husband and i did this in 2004 for our 10th anniversary. we booked it all through virgin. the venue was cypress grove, a lovely old house on lake jessamine. the renewal of vows was held in a beautiful gazebo on the edge of the lake. the blessing package included a delicious cake, sparkling wine, flowers and a button hole.

We had a limo to and from cypress grove, a lady came and did my hair and make up and a photographer. it was the most fantastic day ever. :)

Hi loobylou. Another company we know well and would definitely recommend are "www.getmarriedinflorida.com" who do the full range of weddings and vow renewals throughout central Florida. It is run by a British lady called Lorraine Ellis and she has been a specialist in the area for the last 15 years or so.
