ORANJESTAD, Aruba, June 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Love is in the air on the One happy island as Aruba I Do, the Caribbean's largest vow renewal, returns for a fifth year.

Additionally, 83% agreed that vows can be renewed multiple times throughout a marriage and 86% felt vow renewals are an opportunity for couples to create new memories in a special location.
