    Just found the marriage certificate from 1976. May have been 45 years ago but cannot remember what my weddings vows were. Not to mention that I'd forgotten that it was the Methodist church .... but at least I remember it was at Hornsby

    We are approaching 50 years of marriage and planning a renewal of our vows. I found this site while looking for possible ways to accomplish this. I like the #2 sample for our renewal. It seems to speak better about pre-existing commitment. And we are Methodists a long time.

    Women take things a lot more lightly than men do. I've had a very similar experience with the exception of her leaving. Maybe she is waiting for us to trade cars?
