Hello, I would like to have advice on some ideas for my vow renewal. We were going to have it out at my father in laws house which is in the country, I brought a trellis from ebay and plan on using that for our backdrop between 2 big trees, What shall I serve? It will be a casual event so I was thinking on the lines of cake and punch and maybe take a few people out to dinner with us and swiss off to a motel for the night, we are only having immediate family members present for the vow renewal.  What shall I wear, I have a pink to peach like cocktail suit dress I was going to wear and my husband a pair of dress pants, white dress shirt and black tie. we weren't going to have anybody stand up with us. Could you please email me with any ideas for this type of ceremony
 



What you have planned sounds just right for a vow renewal.  You can have anyone perform the service, since it isn't a legal ceremony.  Therefore, your dad, a grandfather, or another relative or friend can perform it.  You don't need to have witnesses, as you mentioned, nor do you need a bouquet, though you might want to have a corsage and a boutonnière for your husband.
 
Your dress sounds fine, or you could even go a bit more casual if you want.  The cake and punch reception is fine also.  You could also have a picnic or a BBQ if you decide to make it a longer reception instead of going out to dinner.  Be sure to have several people bring cameras to record the happy occasion.
 
Best wishes to you on this happy occasion.
