Naming Ceremonies
Thank you for visiting my website as you consider choosing me, as your celebrant, to help you celebrate the naming of your new arrival or the joining of two families.
When we are born our parents proudly choose our name. A name they love for its individuality, or a family name that is passed down through the generations.
It will be a delight to help create with you a meaningful and special naming day acknowledging the giving of a name to your precious person.

Not everyone wants a religious christening and by choosing me as your celebrant to officiate on your naming day, I will be able to offer that little something different and special for you and your new arrival.
Together we will write that personalised ceremony to suit your own individual occasion. This may be welcoming your new baby, welcoming a child through adoption or the joining together of 2 families.
Each family occasion is different and as your celebrant I offer that uniqueness in the ceremony I write and officiate.

Why Choose Me?
I love family. Some of my best times are spent with my children and grandchildren. And that is why you can relax and know your naming day is in good hands. If you'd like supporters for your child then don't be afraid to choose some.

How Does It Work?
First Steps
- We arrange a friendly 30 minute 'no strings' discovery call to get to know each other.
- You'll talk about your vision for your naming ceremony, who you'd like to be involved and the style you're after.
- You are then able to make your decision to book me.
What Next?
Once you've booked me we will arrange a face to face meeting where I can meet you and your family and find out all about the type of naming ceremony you want.
You may want to welcome a new born; celebrating an adoption; the blending of two families as one. Whatever the occasion, we'll create that perfect ceremony to celebrate it.
I then go away to write your unique naming ceremony just for you. It will tell your story and how you have arrived at this special day as a family.
We can if you'd like to, include a special ritual to mark the occasion, or perhaps incorporate guide parents if celebrating the arrival of a baby.
