Should Marriage Come with a Renewal Date? A Fun Thought from Your Favorite Travel Matchmaker!
At Footman Travel Agency, we help couples plan their dream destination weddings—on beaches, cliffs, islands, and everywhere in between. But what if… weddings came with renewal dates?
I was chatting with my girlfriend (married, of course), and she joked:
“What if marriage licenses expired after five years? If it’s working, you renew. If not—no hard feelings!”
We laughed hard. But then, I thought… wait, she might be onto something!
Let’s Look at the Numbers:
• 22% of first marriages in the U.S. don’t make it past five years
• 60% of second marriages end in divorce
• And third marriages? A whopping 73%!
So maybe a little “check-in” wouldn’t hurt?
Imagine This:
You get an email that says:
“Time to renew your marriage license. Need a getaway to talk things over? Click here to book a second honeymoon!”
Or how about a couples loyalty program?
• Silver Tier: Date nights and spa credits
• Gold Tier: Free couples therapy and a romantic weekend in Jamaica
• Platinum: Your love is seasoned—renewal is automatic, with a beachfront vow renewal in Santorini!
Why It Matters:
Jokes aside, we believe love should be nurtured, revisited, and celebrated. Whether you’re getting married for the first time or saying “I do” again, Footman Travel Agency is here to make every chapter unforgettable.
