Naming Ceremonies

What moment in life could be more special and worth commemorating than the beginning of a new life?

Many people today shy away from the traditional baptism or christening of days gone by but still wish to celebrate the arrival of their child.

A naming ceremony provides an opportunity for family and friends to express their commitment to caring for the child. You may choose to involve ‘godparents/guardians’, grandparents and siblings by inviting them to be a special part of the child’s life.

A ceremony gives an opportunity for parents to express their hopes and wishes for their child’s life.

The use of symbols such as blessing messages, release of balloons or creation of a time capsule can provide a unique memory or keepsake of the day.
