Renewing your vows
Say it all again, your way
A vow renewal is a chance to stand up with the person you love and make your promises again, with everything you have learned since your wedding day. There are no rules about where or how, which is what makes it so special.
We are Tommy and Laurene, a husband and wife team of wedding photographers in Northern Ireland, and we have photographed weddings and elopements together since 2014. We photograph vow renewals in exactly the same relaxed, documentary style, with no stiff posing, just the real moments between you and the people who matter. If you are still deciding what to do, our vow renewal ideas for Northern Ireland are a good place to start.

Ideas for your day
Three ways to renew your vows
There are no rules for a vow renewal, so it can be as simple or as big as you like. Here are three ideas to get you started.
Pick a Place That Means Something
Choose somewhere that matters to you both, like a lakeside, a clifftop, the spot where you got engaged or your favourite walk. It does not need to be a wedding venue to be the right place.
Mark a Special Anniversary
A big anniversary is a lovely reason to celebrate again. Keep it quiet with just the two of you, or bring everyone together for a proper party.
Make It a Family Day
Children, grandchildren and close friends can all be part of it. A renewal is a wonderful excuse for the family photograph you never quite got.
A real vow renewal
Bailey and Brandon at Dunseverick Castle
Bailey and Brandon flew over from Wisconsin to renew their vows at Dunseverick Castle on the Causeway Coast, with more photographs at Ballintoy Harbour afterwards.
It was an elopement style renewal and a lovely example of how simple and personal a renewal can be. You do not need a long guest list or a big plan to make it feel special.
Two photographers
Tommy and Laurene, one story
Both of us photograph every vow renewal. At your ceremony one of us can stay close to you while the other watches the faces of the people who love you, so you get the full story of the day and not just half of it.
We shoot in a documentary style, which means we blend in, keep things relaxed and let moments happen. We cull and edit every gallery ourselves and we never use AI to do it, and your online gallery is ready within six weeks.

Questions
Vow renewal photography, answered
Do you photograph vow renewals?
Yes. We photograph vow renewals across Northern Ireland and Ireland, in the same relaxed, documentary style as our weddings.
How much does vow renewal photography cost?
Every vow renewal is different, so we send a quote for your date and your plans. The smallest coverage we offer is 2 hours. Message us on WhatsApp or fill in the form on this page and we will come back to you.
Is a vow renewal legally binding?
No. A vow renewal is a symbolic ceremony, so there is no notice to give and no paperwork to sign. You can hold it anywhere and keep it as short or as personal as you like.
Where can we hold our vow renewal?
Almost anywhere. Popular choices include the coast, the venue where you were married, a lakeside or woodland, or your own garden. Some places need permission, so check with the venue or landowner first.
Who can lead our vow renewal ceremony?
Anyone you like. Many couples ask a celebrant, and Humanists UK celebrants work across Northern Ireland and offer vow renewal ceremonies. You could also ask your minister or priest about a blessing, or invite a close friend or family member to lead it. Our guide on how to choose a wedding celebrant in Northern Ireland is a good place to start.
Will both of you photograph our vow renewal?
Yes. Both of us come to every vow renewal. One of us can stay close to you while the other watches the reactions of your family and friends.
How long until we get our photos?
Your photographs arrive in an online gallery within six weeks. We cull and edit every gallery ourselves and we never use AI to do it.
