Truth time.  Contrary to the title, Justin + Kerlyn weren’t eloping.  They were renewing their vows for their 10 year wedding anniversary.  Having been wed at a courthouse as a couple of young ducklings who just couldn’t stand not being married, this was for them.  With the cutest little boy at home in Texas with Grandma, Justin + Kerlyn took off on their own adventure to recommit to this life they’ve already made together.

We love vow renewals.  Don’t get us wrong.  We love weddings too, but things are different once you’ve been married a little while.  A vow renewal comes from a completely different position of choice and promise, and witnessing it’s beauty firsthand is enough to bring the most stoic of hearts to tears.  Whether it’s been 5, 10 or 50 years, it’s in a beautiful island like Iceland, or the quiet of a backyard ceremony in the place that was once a house you've made into a home, we encourage every married couple to come back to the heart of their initial commitment.  Special doesn’t begin to define the value of these newfound vows.
