Is it appropriate to have a wedding party for a vow renewal ceremony?
My husband and I are renewing our wedding vows for our 5 year anniversary. Due to the lack of finances, my mom married us with only my Grandma (who has since passed away), and Dad as witnesses. My husband and I would like to show our renewed commitment to each other in front of our friends and family with a ceremony and I would like to have a wedding party, but I did not know how appropriate it would be.
Thanks for all of the answers. It's really helped.
I found an article regarding vow renewal etiquette. I think you will find it helpful: http://www.idotaketwo.com/vow_renewal_etiquette.html. However, if you want to break away from tradition and have the wedding of your dreams, I say go for it! It is your special day and you want to incorporate all that you missed out on the first time.
