My husband and I have chosen to reaffirm our vows with a simple church ceremony and casual reception with about 60 close family and friends. We have had a lot of challenges in our lives during the past 10 ys, With having 2 boys with autism and many other challenges yet have stayed strong and just as in love. We are holding this the day after our 10th anniversary and I have gone with simple elegant Ivory dress, not a gown and plan on doing a family medallion ceremony with my 3 children. I haven't been able to find any wording for this so was wondering if you had a nice site to check. I Do Take Two didn't seem to have it. Also should we put out a basket at the reception in case our guests bring cards or does it appear we are expecting something?

The vow renewal is not a gift giving event so you shouldn't be expecting gifts. Even if some guests may not know this and might bring a gift anyway, it would not be polite to have a receptacle in which to place gifts if not expecting them. Having one would make guests who do not bring a gift feel embarrassed.
Please remember to post only one question per post.
Thanks. Wishing many, many more years of happiness for you and your family. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
