Jeff, you have nothing to worry about posting that on here. I don't know the answer but I'm sure someone will :hug2:
aww thanks I am always nervous when posting message like this.
I truly hope that I will be able to renew my vows in Florida!
It would be a dream that come true!
:hug2:
I really don't know the answer. I am pretty sure Disney and regrettably large chunks of the US aren't as open on this as we might like. From what little I know of Florida and some dear friends there are finding life pretty tough at times :sigh:
Welcome to the forums and you've no need to be nervous whatsoever :yes:Quote:

Hello Jeff! Welcome to Secrets!!!
You can now actually have a vow renewal ceremony through Disney. They reversed there "no same gendered" ceremonies decision a little while ago.
If you want to do it through them, you can contact their Weddings group and be assigned a planner. I don't know terribly much about it, but I do know that it's now allowed and can be quite nice.
Disney is expensive though! :eek:
Otherwise, if you wish to renew your vows, you'll need to pick carefully outside of Disney. Same gendered marriage is not allowed in Florida, and there is much intolerance out there. There is a gay based church in Orlando, and they would be more than happy to assist you.
I hope that helps a bit. If you have other questions, post here and I'll be happy to try and help. :yes:
The problem would be that Florida does not recognise same sex marriages so therefore vow renewal would be difficult too.
We'll help you all we can though - be sure you are among friends here.
Actually, no one can stop a vow renewal. :) It has no legal status, so it can take place. The issue would be having the renewal in a place that is gay friendly, or at least tolerant.
I'd not want Jeff to inadvertantly wander into one of those horrendously fundamental places that make it clear we aren't accepted.
There is a place on Cocoa Beach, owned by two men, and they specialize in Gay ceremonies. It too is expensive though. Anything of that sort will be.
Well I don't know if it's any help but I found this place in Ft Lauderdale
