Why does Gibraltar make so much sense for a renewal of vows ceremony?
Renewing your vows can be a truly magical thing for you and your beloved, for so many reasons. It’s the perfect opportunity, of course, for the two of you to reaffirm your love for and commitment to each other. Moreover, it can give you certain freedoms and choices that you might not have been able to enjoy when you first got married.
When you combine those freedoms and choices with the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar, well… let’s say you’ve got a recipe for warm memories the two of you will be keeping for a lifetime.
Here are a few of the specific reasons you should give serious thought to a renewal of vows in Gibraltar.
It allows you to do what you couldn’t do first time round
The beauty of a renewal of vows ceremony is that because it isn’t legally binding in the way a marriage is, or even subject to the same traditions and rituals, you really can make it whatever you want it to be.
That very much extends to the location of your ceremony. Yes, Gibraltar is a real hotspot for weddings, with even many famous names – such as Sean Connery, John Lennon and Yoko Ono – having been married here. But you might not have seriously considered Gibraltar for your wedding – perhaps because you felt under pressure at the time to tie the knot somewhere closer to home, or because one of you wanted to get married in another part of the world.
Well, you can throw all of those constraints to one side when you opt for a renewal of vows in Gibraltar. Whether the two of you want to faithfully recreate the vibe of your wedding or instead go off-script with something drastically different, a renewal of vows ceremony enables you to do exactly that.
Gibraltar just isn’t like any other wedding destination
If you’re interested in a renewal of vows ceremony specifically due to the opportunity it gives you to organise a much quirkier celebration than your actual wedding, why wouldn’t you want the location of your ceremony to evoke a similarly offbeat and unusual vibe?
Gibraltar’s long been a place for defying convention. It’s British, for example, but also has a Mediterranean climate, and is home to the only wild monkey population in Europe.
Speaking of the local population, Gibraltar also has a thoroughly multicultural vibe, as may be to you and your sweetheart’s taste if you’ve been discussing holding a renewal of vows ceremony somewhere a bit more cosmopolitan than where you got married. Even Gibraltarian cuisine isn’t quite like anywhere else, such has been the foreign influence over many centuries.
