Vow Renewal

No, but I was surprised at how much things cost since I got married the first time in 1994, lol!! Best wishes with your vow renewal!

Yes!! I'm completely shocked how the price of things have changed in 10 years! Our first wedding was pretty simple, couldn't really afford to do much. Now, we're in a much better position and can afford the wedding we really want. But oh my goodness how expensive it is! We're basically focusing on the reception, since the ceremony will just be us reaffirming our vows. We're focusing on food, with a buffet of comfort foods (fried chicken, pulled pork, roast beef, mac n cheese, etc.) and doing a limited open bar with frozen margaritas (so yummy), beer, wine, and 2 signature drinks. We're trying to save money where we can but there are so many things that we wanted he first time around that we'll probably end up gong way over budget this time lol.

Hey there Patrina!

Welcome to the WeddingWire community!

It can be quite a sticker shock getting pricing for all the different vendors. Once you and your FS decide on a budget, as the previous poster mentioned, it's all about allocating budget to the different aspects of the day which are most important to you both.

Are you planning a large celebration for your vow renewal? How many guests will you be inviting?
