Renewing our vows during our vacation
 
Greetings Everyone,
My wife and I will be celebrating our 25th anniversary next year by taking a 3 week once-in-a-lifetime vacation to Australia (mid July - early August 2010). The initial plan is to visit Darwin (Kakadu), Ayers Rock, Port Douglas, and Sydney. Before I mention it to my wife, I want to see if it is possible to renew our vows in some romantic location during our trip. I would greatly appreciate and and all help.
Thanks!

Scudam,
Of course it will be possible. Would you want a religious or civil ceremony? Many romantic possibilities sping to mind.
Uluru with the rock behind you, Port Douglas in the Chapel which overlooks the coral sea or on a boat on Lake Barrine.
Congratulations and good luck with your planning and celebrations.

I would second the suggestion of the chapel at Port Douglas... its beautiful!!

BTW the Chapel is called "St Mary's by the Sea" there are pics of it on flickr

Thank you all. Salty, I would think it would be a simple civil ceremony. All of the sites sound great, but my next question would be, how could I arrange something like that? I suppose I could contact St Mary's but if my wife wanted to do it at Uluru any suggestions how to set that up? Again, thanks for all of the help!
