I would not wear black to a vow renewal. Any other color would be fine, the lighter ecru sounds beautiful.

Congrats Mr and Mrs Sylvia.  How wonderful :-)  Wear what makes you feel beautiful for your special day.

Ecru lace is better. Black is to bleek for a vow renewal. Ecru lace is so elegant. Congratulations!

Completely agree that you wear whatever makes you feel most special. I know that I would choose black, kinda sexy, and after all these years who doesn't want to feel kinda sexy???
