A vow renewal ceremony, step by step

Arrival – you walk in together, or your children walk one of you down the aisle.
Welcome – the celebrant welcomes you and your guests and tells a little of your story.
Looking back – a reading, a song or a few words from a child or friend.
Your renewed vows – new promises, written for the years ahead.
Rings – exchange your original rings again, or add an eternity ring.
Blessing – optionally a Balinese blessing with holy water and flowers.
Celebration – a toast at sunset, photos and a candlelit dinner.

When to renew your vows

There is no wrong moment. Popular milestones are the 5th, 10th, 20th and 25th anniversary, but many couples also renew their vows after a challenging period, when they never had the wedding they dreamed of, or simply because they are in Bali together. The dry season from April to October gives the best chance of a clear sunset – check your date with our date checker.
