BABY NAMING CEREMONIES
This is a great alternative to christenings and faith based naming ceremonies. The ceremony itself can be fun, unconventional, a mixture of faith elements if appropriate and indoors or outdoors - it will be written just for you and will reflect your lives and beliefs. Filled with joy and love, a naming ceremony is the perfect way to celebrate the birth of your child and formally introduce them to your family and friends.
A baby naming ceremony creates a space and time to formally recognise those people that you have chosen to have a special role in your child's life. It may be more meaningful to your chosen Guideparents if they are not religious and would not feel comfortable standing up in a church to make promises that are not true to them and their beliefs.

There are lots of creative ways to celebrate your baby and to name them in front of those you love!
We can discuss music choices and have special readings or poems - why not include siblings or other family member in the ceremony? Some people like to have some symbolic elements such as lighting candles or planting a tree - or what about sealing a box of port with hand-written messages inside from everyone at the ceremony that can be opened on your baby's 21st birthday?! |

The family usually holds a celebration after the ceremony at the same location so once everyone arrives - there is no need to relocate.

ADOPTION CEREMONIES
When a child is adopted into a family, an Adoption Ceremony allows you to welcome them into the family and to show how special and loved they are. You can make lifelong promises to your new child and get friends and family, including those you have chosen to be Guideparents or have a special guardianship role, to do the same. Working together we can plan a unique and individual celebration that will be remembered for ever.
ADULT NAMING CEREMONIES
A naming ceremony is not necessarily just for children. Adults may also want to mark a change of name after a divorce or a change in family situation, or maybe they have changed gender. During these very personal ceremonies a person is welcomed into the family and promised support by family and friends.
