Re-affirmation of marriage vows

A ceremony for married couples who wish to celebrate their marriage, renewing their commitment to each other, reflect on their achievements and acknowledge the family that surround them.

The ceremony gives a focus to your celebrations and an opportunity to renew your marriage vows or make fresh promises to one another.

Couples often choose to celebrate at key times in their married lives, on special anniversaries or birthdays. A re-affirmation ceremony may be an opportunity to confirm your love and commitment after a particularly difficult time or illness.

Couples who marry abroad may choose to re-affirm their marriage vows here in the company of their family and friends.

Any couple can celebrate at any stage in their marriage from newly wed to diamond celebration. The selection of words for the ceremony are designed to suit all circumstances so that you can develop a ceremony appropriate to your needs.

Your celebration may take place at the Register Office situated just behind Plymouth’s famous Hoe, with it’s secluded gardens or in a venue registered by Plymouth City Council for this purpose.

The ceremony can follow a traditional format with attendance and best man and family and friends taking part with readings and music or maybe a less formal occasion for a small group or just the two of you.

You will be provided with a selection of choices to help you develop a ceremony unique and appropriate for you. Our experienced celebrants can guide you through the options available to you.
