Renewal of Vows

Many couples choose to renew their wedding vows, often on their wedding anniversary.
 
A vow renewal can take place amongst family and friends, or simply between the two of you.

In renewing their vows, couples reaffirm the love they have for one another and reinforce their commitment to their relationship and to their partner.

In creating a vow renewal ceremony, I will work closely with you to develop a ceremony which accurately reflects the road you have travelled together and which reaffirms your commitment to a shared future. Your ceremony could include the following:

§ Pre-ceremonial music
§ Request to silence mobile phones and pagers
§ Entrance music and entrance
§ Introduction of ceremonial party and welcome
§ Acknowledgment of absent or deceased family members and friends
§ Reason for ceremony
§ Extracts/passages/poems/songs/original pieces
§ Interactive symbols and motifs eg warming or blessing of the renewal rings;
    exchange of roses; reconstruction of elements of original wedding ceremony
§ Vows
§ Exchange of rings/gifts
§ Music/Serving of drinks/Signing of the certificate
§ Declaration
§ Music
§ Photos

When you have reached the summit of Life's hill,
May it be possible for you to say, 
' Married long years, But we are lovers still'

 

Fees

My fee for anniversaries and renewal ceremonies is all inclusive, with the exception of unusual travel costs.

The ceremony date and time will be confirmed and secured by the return of the booking confirmation fee of $200.00  Please note that I will try to hold your time and date, but cannot guarantee the booking until the booking confirmation fee has been received.

No drafts of the ceremony will be released until the booking confirmation fee is received. The celebrant retains all intellectual property rights over the ceremony created.

The outstanding balance is payable six weeks prior to the ceremony date (where appropriate). I will not attend the ceremony unless all fees have been paid by the above time before the ceremony.  
In the event that the ceremony is cancelled by you, the deposit is non-refundable. Should either of you cancel the ceremony within 30 days of the scheduled ceremony date, having paid the balance, no refunds will be paid.
 
*A surcharge applies to all ceremonies conducted on New Years Eve, New Years Day, Australia Day, Anzac Day, Easter, Labour Day, Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
