Vow Renewal Invite Tips
Here’s some general advice on crafting a vow renewal invitation.
Get nostalgic
A vow renewal is all about rekindling those old feelings, so hearkening back to the early days of the marriage is appropriate.
There are at least a couple of ways to do this. One is by adopting the style of a formal wedding invitation (even if the event itself is casual). The other is to include an old wedding photo of the couple.

3. Your presence on this special day is the only gift we ask for.
