NAMING CEREMONIES
A naming ceremony led by a celebrant is a joyful, non-religious way to welcome a new child into the world—or into a new family. It’s a celebration of identity, family and belonging.
Great ideas for Naming Ceremonies that I can help you celebrate include:
Create a ‘wishing tree’ where all guests write good wishes and messages for the child; this is often kept and presented to them later in life, such as on their 18th Birthday!
Sand Blending is a lovely way to show the unity of the new family. Each parent pours a coloured sand into a glass jar and then a further layer is added for the child. This is then shaken until the sand is inseparable, just like the family unit.
Lighting a candle accompanied by personal vows to the child feels more like a traditional christening and might suit you if some of the family are religious, or you want a more formal approach.
Please do get in touch if you would like to talk about this lovely ceremony, which can also be held for older children joining a new family such as when adopted or two families are joined together.
