We are going to get married in Las Vegas. We invited both sets of parents. His parents will be there but mine wont be. My mom has a fear of flying. My parents want us to renew our vows the following weekend at the reception, In front of everyone? Is this a good idea?

Re: [Angeleyez0424] Renewing vows the week after destination wedding

I'm sorry that you will not have your parents there with you are you marry. You may want to re-think the ceremony location if having both sets of parents witnessing the vows is important to you.
This is a bit too soon to renew vows. After all, what is there to renew? Typically a vow renewal takes place after a rift in a relationship, a separation, illness or significant anniversary. If your parents cannot make the trip , and you are set on marrying in Vegas, then videotape the ceremony and play it for your parents. A reception after the fact is a fine idea too. Playing the video at the reception can make everyone happy. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
