Default Already married weddings
I've been reading alot about 2nd weddings, but have yet to find any advise/info about reaffirmation or vows or already married weddings. My husband and I will celebrate 12 years or marriage next year and are planning a wedding/reception (we never had a wedding, we got married one night after bible study) I am planning this event as if I am a bride. I am wondering if there is info taliored to my situation specifically?

applause hey me too
Sharon Naylor (she is on this site) has a great book on renewing your vows! I say if you didn't have the wedding you wanted the first time do it the way you want this time for the renewal ceremony...I am having the attendants and the dress and the reception afterward Plus you have plenty of time!

Welcome to Pash.

What you're actually doing is a vow renewal as you mentioned, it's not a wedding.

There is a difference and it has to be acknowledged when you're planning the celebration. You can have the renewal ceremony as formal or informal as you wish, but some things would be different. You wouldn't register for gifts, you wouldn't have someone host a shower for you, and you must indicate on the invitations that it is a vow renewal.

I think there are some other "rules" that must be adhered to, but I'll leave that to the pros.

Congrats on your 12 years of marriage!

Welcome!

As Heather said, plus usually there is no garter tossing, bouquet throwing or blusher veil over the face. (Its a little bit late to be blushing, LOL)

I don't have any advise on this one, I think the other girls had some great advise.

I do want to say Welcome to pash!!!

Welcome to pash! My grandparents just had their vow renewed last year and it was somewhat formal. They invited all of their relatives and their closest friends.
