We had a vow renewal in 2009 at WDW. 50 of our family members & friends joined us & were more than happy to do so. We didn't do it because our vows expired. We never had a wedding, just married in the courthouse. We always wanted a Disney wedding & came in to a large amount if money so it was our way of celebrating. We celebrated surviving a horrific car accident followed by years of litigation & health issues. Our relationship was tested in so many ways & we stood strong, together. We felt a vow renewal at Disney was the perfect way to celebrate! You can read about it & see pictures by clicking the link in my signature.
I'll never get the hostility people have against vow renewals. It's a celebration of love. No, you don't have to go & be apart if it, but you don't have to begrudge the couple that does it.
