You should always say what is in your heart. My wedding vows was short and sweet.
Example: i have learned over the many years together that no matter where we go or what we do as long as we are together our lives will be everything we will ever want. I love you with all my heart and can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you.
This is the traditional time at which it is done. That being said, there is no rule against renewing your vows anytime you feel like it.
* Yes, if a married couple are renewing their vows then a gift should be given unless the invitation has stated that no gifts be given.

No, the gifts are given as a boost to the new couple. You are not obligated by any means to provide a gift to a married couple that is renewing their vows.
we had our renewal nearly five years ago, i just used a search engine (google etc) and typed in 25th wedding renewal vows......got tons and tons of (free !!! ) ideas..........good luck !!!!!!!!!
* People renew their vows because they love each other very much and it's to dedicate that love a second time around and involve family and friends. Generally renewing vows is more pleasant and relaxed than when you got married.
It means that you feel a sense of renewed commitment to your spouse and/or your family. Something probably has happened quite recently that has caused you to have a fresh appreciation of your loyalties and commitments.
A couple in any State can say their own vows to each other if they so choose, but the Minister will say what he needs to say to legally marry you after you have said your own vows to each other. It's a nice touch to make up your own vows.
Say The Vows And Put The Ring On The Finger
Vows are what people write at a wedding. Vows can say anything but people using write what's in their heart.
* The bride and groom say exchange their vows in front of the altar.
