ONE of the first registration services in the country to offer couples a chance to renew their wedding vows has been set up.
Married couples in North Yorkshire can choose to hold a service at several venues across the county, with relatives and friends able to take part as witnesses, or perform readings.
North Yorkshire's head of trading standards and regulatory services, Stuart Pudney, said: "We recognise the desire of many married couples to renew their vows and publicly demonstrate their commitment to each other.
"These days a successful marriage is worth celebrating. We have ideas for the ceremonies and staff will be happy to advise at all stages.
"However, the vows, readings and content will be for the couple to decide."
