Vow Renewal Island Wedding Ceremony
Today is a day of celebration. We are here, on this Caribbean island, surrounded by incredible beauty to celebrate life, love, and the beauty of relationships. But more importantly we are here to celebrate the relationship of two people who have come here to reaffirm their commitment to each other on their continued journey together.
It is true gift when you find someone in this world that you wish spend the rest of your life with and marry. But it is a bigger blessing when after years of marriage you look at this person standing next to you and say you want to do all over again.
The beauty of this marriage is that you always continue to learn together and teach each other, to open each other to explore new ideas, to share life and bring out the very best in one another. As we stand beside the ocean tide, may your love always be as constant and unchanging as these never ending waves, flowing endlessly from the depths of the sea.

The Exchange of Vows
Your vows are the promises that you are making to this person standing in front of you. It's letting eachother know that through thick and thin you will always have this person by your side.
Do you, ( groom ), promise ( bride ) to be forever faithful and honest, to share with her your dreams and your fears, to continue to cherish her for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health and to be forever close in your souls? ( groom ) :" I Do"

The exchange of rings
Let these rings serve to remind you of vows you make here today. They are a symbol of wholeness, peace and completeness. These rings are very special because they remind us that we are individuals yet we are not alone. Wear them to tell each other and the whole world that you are in love with the very special person wearing the other one.
( groom/bride ), place this ring on ( groom/bride )'s finger and while holding his/ her hand repeat after me.
I, ( groom/bride ), give you this ring ~ and I give you my heart. May you feel surrounded by my love ~ each time you look at this ring.
With this ring, I thee wed

Pronouncement of Marriage
Having witnessed the vows you have just made to each other,
surrounded by your love, the sun, the tropical sea of the Caribbean, by the loving grace of God, and by the authority vested in me, by the U.S. Virgin Islands, I now pronounce you co-captains in life, best friends forever, and most of all for the second time, husband and wife.
( groom ), you may kiss your bride.
xxxoooxxxooo
My husband of 20 years asked me to marry him all over again while we were on a cruise ship.
When arriving in St. Thomas he swept me away on a helicopter to re new our vows on a private island.
My eyes swell up with tears of how much I love that man
after all these years.
What a perfect moment in my life.
Thank you Island Wedding Services for making this possible.
