St. Mary of the Woods in Avon hosted a lovely ‘Vow Renewal’ on Thurs., Feb. 12, as resident couples renewed their lifetimes of love and commitment in the senior living community’s chapel in anticipation of Valentine’s Day.
About a dozen of the community’s couples took part in the exchange, proving that love does endure forever!
Afterwards, a reception was held where brides, grooms, family members and guests had the chance to review original wedding photos of the couples. A Valentine’s Day theme was also in place with a Kissing Booth to go along with roses, punch, cookies and lots of love. St. Mary of the Woods proved once again this year that there really is a connection between love and longevity!
