Wedding vow renewal is a ceremony where loving spouses reaffirm their wedding vows.
Why do it? You don’t express words of love just once for a lifetime, but repeat them every day in different variations. After all, it feels wonderful to hear: “You are my only one!” “I will support and care for you, no matter what happens!” This is exactly the same idea with renewing vows. It doesn’t matter how long ago your wedding was – whether a year or 20 years ago. The purpose of the ceremony is to once again testify your love, respect, and loyalty. These could be the words spoken on your wedding day or new vows that reveal new facets of your married life.
There is no exact origin for the tradition of vow renewal, it developed gradually. In Ancient Rome, for instance, there wasn’t a precise counterpart to this ceremony, but strong families were highly valued. The Romans frequently made offerings to the gods. These pleas for divine blessing reflected their constant desire to maintain harmony in marriage.
In the modern world, time definitely moves faster than in Ancient Rome. The pace of life is becoming more intense, and stability in any sphere has become rare. It is important to find a moment to show your partner that your love is a constant, unaffected by eras and changes.
Unlike an official wedding, vow renewal can be organized wherever you want, without any restrictions. And where better than in Italy, a country of bright sun, passionate feelings, and architectural masterpieces, to confess your love to each other?
