The 2023 wedding season will be unlike any other.
Many couples will choose to celebrate their three-year anniversary with a vow renewal ceremony. This group got married in 2020.
While a once-in-a-century pandemic raged, love endured and weddings marched forward. Not like usual, but they did take place.
Now that things are back to normal, these couples are planning vow renewal ceremonies to give their “I-do” a “Take Two”!
Traditionally vow-renewal ceremonies have been reserved for major milestones (10-, 25- and 50-year anniversaries).
Or you may think of them as being for couples coming out of a rough patch in their marriage, people who want to make amends and recommit to each other.
But think about it — has anything been normal the last few years? The global pandemic upended everything we used to know. As a result, seismic shifts are underway.
Couples are doing things their way.
Ditching traditions, forgoing old expectations, deciding what’s important to them and then planning their wedding day around their values.
This has even led to one couple getting married as part of an art exhibition!
In 2020, venue closures, travel restrictions and social distancing guidelines created all sorts of barriers for couples holding pandemic era weddings.
Many couples were forced online and into Zoom rooms on their one and only special day. Robbed of intimate moments.
Devoid of hugs and kisses from family and friends. Stripped of the emotions summoned by the first few notes of the wedding march.
For a time during the pandemic, weddings felt more like elaborate PowerPoint presentations. Ick!
But in this new, post-pandemic, world it’s time to make up for what we lost. “Here Comes the Bride” is becoming “Here they come again,” this time with feeling!
That’s where a 2023 vow renewal ceremony organized by Cactus Collective Weddings comes in. Make this year your chance to give your “I Do”s a “take two.”
Let Us Organize Your Special Vow Renewal Ceremony
Our vow renewal package includes everything you need for reaffirming your love!
Did flimsy disposable masks ruin your perfect pictures?
Was the courthouse in your hometown not exactly the destination you dreamed of?
Was the guest list lacking your loved ones?
Did fears of spreading the virus overwhelm what should have been an overjoyed occasion?
If you got married in 2020 then the answer is most likely “YES.”
According to The Knot’s 2020 Real Weddings Study, 90 percent of couples made changes to their wedding plans due to COVID-19 during the worst of the pandemic in 2020.
So, while you may have felt like you missed out, you shouldn’t feel alone. Now it’s your turn to get it right.
