Question

If I told my wife that we customarily immerse 45 minutes after sunset and showed her in the laws that someone writes this, and she agreed that we should follow this practice, and I told her that if it is not after 45 minutes the immersion will not be valid, and she agreed and did so several times, and now she wants to immerse earlier, will the immersion be valid?

Answer

Hello 

Since you have accepted this practice upon yourselves, if you wish to act differently, you must perform a release of vows. 

Without a release of vows, indeed, the immersion will not be effective.
