Sonia and Jeff contacted me last May, well in advance of their 25th wedding anniversary in March.
Now with two young adult children, they knew they wanted to have a vow renewal ceremony to celebrate, in their words, "how far we have come and what we have accomplished as a couple and family, as well as recommit to growing with each other as we move into a new phase of our married life."
Jeff and Sonia didn't have a clear vision of what their vow renewal might include, but together we planned a special ceremony attended only by their children and parents, complete with a beautiful reading and an exchange of new vows and wedding rings.
Here is what they shared with one another:
Before God and these loved ones,
With my whole heart I promise
To remain your devoted partner,
To continue to grow with you
In mind and spirit,
To practice patience, kindness and understanding,
And to make time to enjoy
The life, and the love
we have built together.
Once more I vow to cherish you
For as long as we both shall live.
♥️ Best. Job. Ever. ♥️
