10 Things We Did Differently at Our Vow Renewal

10 Things We Did Differently at Our Vow Renewal

A vow renewal is one of the most beautiful events. It combines our favorite parts of weddings with a calm confidence that’s rarely present between nearlyweds. Couples who choose to renew their vows have been married for a year or longer, and it’s a day to reflect on their journey together. It’s not about the start of their marriage – it’s about the continued commitment to choose and love one another. Often, the couple has experienced a significant life change or milestone that makes them want to celebrate again, and in many cases, the vow renewal experience differs significantly from the original wedding day. After years of marriage, a couple renewing their vows has a better understanding of who they are as individuals and a couple, what marriage means to them, and how they prioritize experiences and finances.

Does personality matter when hiring wedding vendors? For planners and photographers, the answer is yes!

Does personality matter when hiring wedding vendors? For planners and photographers, the answer is yes!

Whether you’re planning a full wedding or downsizing to an intimate event, hiring the right vendors is essential to creating the day you want. Booking professionals with experience takes stress off your plate as you finalize your plans, and vendors often work behind the scenes on your wedding day, making things run smoothly. For most vendor types, hiring a quality pro comes down to asking the right questions to make sure they can accommodate your style of event and execute your specific needs, which can be determined via email and quick phone calls, but there are two vendors you need to hire with an extra aspect in mind – their personality.

Kirsten Alexandria Photography

I am a wedding & elopement photographer who mainly focuses on elopements and adventurous engagement photoshoots. Some unique aspects of my business are that I offer astrophotography, shoot with both film and digital, and I’m a wilderness first responder for my adventure clients’ peace of mind.

I absolutely LOVE backpacking & hiking. My first night on the Appalachian Trail was only my 3rd ever backpacking trip & after hiking about 1500 miles of it, I knew I had to find a way to combine my love for photography & hiking. Adventure elopements just happen to be that! Besides that, I love cooking new recipes & baking, gardening & canning/preserving my harvests, traveling whenever and wherever I can, and taking care of my two adorable pups.
