My husband and I got married 3 years ago in July. We didn’t get to have the actual white dress wedding. I’ve chosen to have a vow renewal but have an actual not huge wedding but small wedding with our 5 year vow renewal. Is it normal? Like is it okay? I’m only asking because I have a mother in law who thinks it’s not normal and it’s weird and just very Opinionated on it. I literally have wanted this but due to being pregnant with our son we didn’t have an actual white dress wedding. Any advice is greatly appreciated

Especially after COVID this is much more common now. I think it is definitely acceptable.

If you wanted to do a vow renewal that’s fine but call it a vow renewal not a wedding since your already married

It is 100% OK to do a vow renewal! It's not weird at all. Many people have done this, especially over the past year and a half due to COVID. If you want to do one, I say go for it!

Do whatever you like.
Some people will judge.
I've seen a lot of people say people only renew vows because someone cheated.
I've seen people say a vow renewal shouldn't look anything like a wedding.
We're having a 20-year vow renewal where I plan to wear a wedding gown and carry a bouquet and have a tiered cake and everything, just because we went to celebrate. And it's going to be a small guest list.
Anyone who thinks it weird is welcome to decline attending. Do what you want and enjoy yourself and celebrate your marriage and family. Cheers.

Thank you so much. I truly appreciate it. We just never got the chance and I’ve always wanted one so we’ve decided to have one finally

Go for it, it's definitely normal. But who cares whether it's normal or not? If it's something you & your husband wants to do then do it!

It's definitely OK to do!!! Everyone's situation is different and decsions should never be judged by anyone. Ignore the people who tell you how to live your lives. You do what makes you happy.
