There is no such thing as a vow renewal wedding. These are two totally different events.
If you're married, you had a wedding.
A wedding is a ceremony (no matter where it takes place, what you wore or if there were guests, cake, etc. - as long as there is a marriage license) to marry two people. You're already married so that ceremony isn't for you.
A vow renewal is a ceremony for couples who want to recommit to each other, usually done on benchmark anniversaries or to reconnect after a particularly difficult time. I can't tell if that ceremony is for you since you didn't offer additional information such as when you were married. But, this is not a wedding and does not include many of the traditional wedding elements like bridal attendants.
If you want your church to bless your wedding you may have a ceremony called the blessing of the marriage. Again, not a wedding.
You may want it all, but you've made decisions that won't allow for you to have it all. You've already decided to get married, for whatever reason. We all have to take responsibility for our decisions.
