Renew Your Vows: Your Story, Your Song.

The first one was small. A courthouse on a Tuesday with two witnesses and lunch after. A church squeezed in around a deployment. A reception you paid for yourselves, cutting every corner you could find. Whatever song played that day was a song about two people who did not know anything yet.

This one gets to cover the part that came after. Four apartments and then a house with a driveway. The kid who is now taller than both of you. The year one of you got sick and the other learned to do the taxes. The stretch where it was not obvious you would make it, and then it was. The running joke about his parallel parking that has outlived three cars. No first dance song could have known any of that. Yours can name all of it.

Send it in whatever order it comes out, including the hard parts, and tell us where you want the song to sit. Mostly warm. Mostly funny. Or honest about the difficult year and glad to be standing on the far side of it. Shaping that into verses is the writing job, and the writing job is ours, not yours.

You get an original studio-quality song written from your details, $19.99, delivered by email within 24 hours, whether the ceremony is in June or this Saturday.

Start with the year you would never put in a toast. Decide together whether it belongs in the song, then tell us either way and we will work from there.
