So, you’ve been through a wedding. Maybe it was beautiful and perfect. Maybe it was rushed, stressful, or simply not “you.” Or maybe you’ve grown together through life’s ups and downs and you want to mark the journey so far and what’s still to come.
A vow renewal ceremony is your chance to say “I still do” in a way that’s 100% yours. No pressure. No rules. Just love, laughter, and a brilliant excuse for a celebration.
As a celebrant based in the North West of England, I create completely personalised vow renewal ceremonies, full of meaning, fun, and whatever feels right for you. Whether you want to keep it intimate or go full-on festival, I’m here for it. And yes, I travel!
Why Renew Your Vows?
Vow renewals are for anyone who wants to:
- Celebrate a milestone anniversary (5, 10, 25, 50 years or any number that feels big to you)
- Recommit after a tough time
- Say the vows you wish you’d said the first time around
- Do the whole thing your way, especially if your original wedding wasn’t fully “you”
- Throw a party just because you can (and why not?)
There’s no legal paperwork. No strict format. Just a chance to pause, reflect, and celebrate the love you’ve built together.
What Can Be Included in a Vow Renewal Ceremony?
Literally anything. That’s the beauty of a celebrant-led ceremony, the sky’s the limit.
Some fun and meaningful elements you might include:
- A vow exchange (original vows, new promises, or something playful)
- A symbolic ritual like handfasting, candle lighting, or a cocktail-mixing moment
- Involving your children, pets, or even your favourite band
- Readings or poems by friends and family
- A confetti finale, dance-off, or singalong
Your vow renewal can take place in your garden, on a beach, at your favourite pub, or under the stars in the Lakes. It can be dressed-up or dressed-down, barefoot or black tie. It’s your love story, you get to tell it your way.
What Does a Celebrant Do for a Vow Renewal?
As your celebrant, I’ll get to know you both, hear your story, and write a ceremony that feels like you. No tired templates, no cringe, no copy-paste. Just a ceremony that reflects who you are now, and everything you’ve shared so far.
We’ll work together to make it relaxed, heartfelt, joyful and totally unforgettable.

Let’s celebrate love, the long-haul kind. The real, messy, brilliant, still-going-strong kind. The kind worth shouting (and dancing) about.
