A rededication of wedding vows is a way for a married couple to celebrate the love they still have for each other after all of these years. Unlike traditional weddings, guests aren't normally required to give gifts to the couple going through a vow renewal, according to the I Do! Take Two website. Even so, you may want to give them a gift. Vow rededication can also feature party favors for the guests or presents between the couple. - Unlike newlyweds, couples renewing their vows already have kitchen and home items. Instead, look for a gift that has a personal touch. Give them a photo album where they can store their rededication pictures, or a couple's spa certificate as a way to relax. If you have experience with special events, you could offer your services as a gift. Offer to perform the rededication ceremony, take pictures or bake and decorate the cake.
- Party favors are a good way for the happy couple to thank guests for coming to the vow renewal, especially if the guest list is small. Stationery and pen sets work well for a more expensive party favor. Small bags of colored candies make an appropriate inexpensive gift. Consider the theme of the vow renewal ceremony when considering party favors. For an elegant outdoor rededication, give guests white votive candles. They can light the candles at the reception or take them home and use them on their own. A beach vow renewal could have decorative sea shells as a party favor.
- The most important gifts at a vow renewal are between the couple. Take this opportunity to buy or make something personal and thoughtful. Set a spending limit and stay within this range. The gift you give depends on the personality of the person you're renewing your vows with. A golfer may want a new set of clubs, or a crafter may want a complete scrapbooking kit. Jewelry is another acceptable gift for a vow renewal ceremony. Consider working together for one unified gift instead. The couple could each pitch in for a second honeymoon or for a new home entertainment system.
