I'm going to be getting married soon but just at the court house.... I want to do a ceremony but not until next year...... So my question is should I do an actual wedding ceremony or just a vow renewal? 

If you want a wedding, have a wedding. Why would anyone want to attend a wedding of someone who has been married for a year? I could understand if you are marrying out of the country and came back here a year later to have a reception so everyone could meet your spouse. 

Renew vows with a reception. 

Oops double post 

Just have a big anniversary party. 

Just have a big reception dinner party. The whole point now is the celebration with loved ones, right? 

Reception only. 

A wedding ceremony? When you are already married? A renewal of vows? After only months of marriage. Why? Both seem really odd to me. Too pointless after the actual wedding. But that's just me. I could see if you are returning from overseas and want to celebrate with a gathering to introduce new hubby.......but another ceremony??? Odd. 

A renewal is appropriate at oh maybe 25 years. So I would wait till then for that! 

What we did was have my closest friends and family and then had a wonderful dinner for our wedding. 

just have a party, not the ceremony. vow renewal within a year of being married? that would seem odd to me, but I'm single, lol.
