Wedding Ideas - Vow #2

Hannah, a wedding photographer, and her husband James decided while on holiday in 2013 that they wanted to renew their vows. They decided to do it in France in July this year. They only brought their two children with them as witnesses, but having a great photographer was also really important to them.

Happy Thursday Peeps! We are feeling the love on Festival Brides today with the latest guest post from Rachel of Bride By The Beach. She is discussing ideas and inspiration for those all important ceremony readings and wedding vows and has made some great suggestions.

I’m such a sucker for a love story! Especially the kind that remind you why you got are getting married in the first place.  Case and point. Melissa + Jeff.  A reminder to us all that a wedding is because you want to look your partner’s face every few years and let them know you love them even more than you thought possible on the first day of marriage.  Tiffany […]

Behind every great wedding, there's a team of wedding pros who are working their magic behind the scenes. They are florists, stylists, cake artists, calligraphers, and photographers. They are the ones who make sure that everything is in place. They work tirelessly and are often unseen.

Our Vendor of the Week this week, is the one who puts the pendulum into play and has a huge part in the bride and groom's vows: Van Atkins Jewelry in New Albany, MS. Since 1982, Van Atkins has provided the unique and unusal jewelry pieces to women and men throughout Mississippi and the United States.

Tilley Photography Rachel Bond is one of the Mississippi Gulf Coast's top florists and designer. Pine Hills Floral Designs is located at her family's nursery Pine Hills Nursery in Pass Christian, MS. Growing up around plants and landscape, it was only natural, that Rachel would gravitate and head toward floral design.

For as long as I can remember, That Special Touch in Pearl, MS has been the place for wedding cakes, groom's cakes, birthday cakes, any cake. I have had my fair share of cakes. And, of course, I have my favorites as well. For 32 years, That Special Touch has been a part of central [...]

This intimate vow renewal makes you want to cozy up in a little cabin out in the woods. Designed by Claire Duran Weddings & Events and captured by Bonnie Sen Photography, this shoot is a wintry dream. The moody florals by Blossom & Vine make this amazing setting that much more romantic!

In 1986, two sister-in-laws, felt there was a need for a centrally located bridal shop with "Big City Selections" in the small town of Brookhaven, Mississippi. Their goal was to offer high quality gowns at affordable prices to Mississippi brides. It wasn't long before Imaginations Bridal had brides flocking from across Mississippi, surrounding states [...]

Sarah and Josh were married in 2004. After being together for so long, and having two kids, they decided to renew their vows in June of this year. "We've been together a long time and our kids are out of the 'little' kid phase", said Sarah.

If you're thinking of renewing your vows, make sure you check out this beautiful vow renewal from V.A. Photography, Events by Elizabeth Palmer, and One Sweet Day in May.

This week's Vendor of the Week is Sharon Coker Photography. Sharon not only is a great wedding photographer, but also fashion and commercial photographer. Over the years that I have gotten to know Sharon, I have found that she is always going to seminars and classes to improve her skills.

When one of my couples contacted me about a vow renewal ceremony it got me thinking about wedding readings that are a fit for two people who want to renew their commitment to each other and honor the place they have been, as well as the place they want to be going together.

While I adore the myriad of heartfelt, cute, humorous, serious, and geeky wedding vows I've seen all over Offbeat Bride, promises of specific behavior didn't quite fit the relationship philosophies held by my partner and I. Eventually we decided to write a mission statement for our marriage and expand that into something more poetic in lieu of vows.

Today’s incredibly fun styled shoot was inspired by a simple mantra: ”Let’s celebrate marriage.” And since nothing is more motivational than a love story, and nothing is more beautiful than someone’s real-life love success, Amanda of In the Now Weddings and Events worked with a real couple + their adorable kiddos to bring this gorgeous vow renewal inspiration to [...] You Might Also Love Opulent + Playful Gold Wedding InspirationOrganic Wedding Inspiration Set Along A RiverBright + Playful Surf Wedding Inspiration

Renewing vows is surely one of the sweetest things a married couple could ever do. Reminding each other just how in love you are and planning a celebration that (let's face it) in hindsight may actually be a little more reflective of the two of you is a beautiful thing!

Imagine renewing your vows at Burning Man, not planning to have a photographer, but then a professional wedding photographer walks past and offers to shoot your ceremony for free! That's exactly what happened to Kirsty and Amir.

Here at GWS, we wholeheartedly believe that each + every day is a reason to celebrate your love. So when we came across this vow renewal, photographed by Julie Paisley, we were ALL about it! Amber + Josh got married in their early twenties, but their wedding day didn't really reflect their personalities - the...
