- Renewal of vows
Conducting and leading a humanist vows renewal ceremony
A vow renewal ceremony is held some time after the wedding ceremony: to celebrate an important anniversary or to reaffirm publicly declare commitment to one another and to give meaning to the journey travelled together. The primary inspiration for the creative process is you and your story, along with shared experiences and lessons learned.
Ceremonies conducted at your chosen venue and time
The duration of the ceremony is 25-45 minutes.
Lithuanian, English, French, German, Italian and Russian languages are available
With the help of the Master of Ceremonies throughout the entire process
ceremony, a berry of truth, personality, and warm emotions.
A vow renewal ceremony offers an opportunity to celebrate and give meaning to the journey you've shared since your wedding, as well as to include important people in the celebration: children, grandchildren, or perhaps friends who have been with you throughout your married life. The ceremony is usually held after 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, or even 60 years of married life. It can be organised in consultation with the anniversary couple, or as a surprise, where information is gathered from loved ones. Unsure which option is best for you? Let's talk!

What is a vow renewal ceremony?
This is a symbolic celebration at which a couple reaffirm their love, commitments, and shared life journey. The ceremony is not legally binding; it is an emotional, meaningful gesture to each other.
How does a humanist ceremony differ from a religious one?
A humanist ceremony is based on human values, individuality, and the couple’s story. It is not religious, so it can be completely tailored to your wishes – without templates or rules. It does not worship higher powers, and the responsibility for building and nurturing the relationship is given to the person.
When do couples most commonly renew their vows?
The most popular occasions are wedding anniversaries (e.g., 5, 10, 25 years), a new stage in life, or after challenges that have brought the couple even closer. But the real time is when you feel that it is important to you.
Where can the ceremony take place?
Anywhere: in nature, in a garden, at a family home, on a beach, at a restaurant or even at the same venue where the wedding took place. The location is chosen according to the couple's vision and mood.
Do new vows need to be prepared?
Not mandatory, but very meaningful. You can create new vows based on shared survival, experiences, or even humour. You can also renew old ones, giving them a new context.
Can this ceremony be the same as a wedding?
Yes – it can be intimate for two, or festive with guests, decorations, a photoshoot, and a party. No rules – just what's important to you and how you want it.
Can children be included in a vow renewal ceremony?
Yes! Children can be a beautiful part of the ceremony – after all, they are often an extension of the love story. There are many involvement opportunities and options, and together with your officiant, you'll find the most unifying and suitable way for your family.
Is music required at a vow renewal ceremony?
Music is not mandatory, but it adds more sentiment to the ceremony's atmosphere. You can choose your couple's/family's favourite song, gentle instrumental music, or even a live performer. It can accompany the entrance, the vows, or the conclusion of the ceremony.
Are any documents or registration required?
No, the ceremony is symbolic and requires no legal action. It is a personal celebration for you only.
