Welcoming a new child is one of life's greatest joys
As a proud father myself, I know that welcoming a new child is one of life's greatest joys. There’s no better way to introduce them to the world and your loved ones than hosting a heartfelt naming ceremony.
These meaningful events allow you to share your dreams, family history, words of wisdom, and blessings for your child's bright future.
We'll blend spiritual tradition, readings and anything your heart desires to celebrate the arrival of your bundle of joy.

Other ceremonies I offer
As a celebrant dedicated to honouring life's significant milestones, I offer a range of unique and meaningful ceremony types, each tailored to celebrate pivotal moments in your journey:
Transgender Naming and Identity Affirmation Ceremonies
Embrace and honour the true identity of transgender individuals with a ceremony that marks their transition and new beginning. This deeply personal celebration is not just about a name change; it's a powerful affirmation of identity, a recognition of courage, and a joyous embrace of their authentic self. I craft these ceremonies with sensitivity, respect, and a deep understanding of the significance of this moment.
Adoption Celebration Ceremonies
The journey to becoming a family through adoption is unique and incredibly special. My adoption celebration ceremonies are designed to honour this journey. They acknowledge the love and commitment of the adoptive family while respecting the child's background. These ceremonies can be a beautiful way to welcome a child into their new family and community, celebrating the love and bonds that unite them.
New Start Ceremonies
Life is a series of chapters, and a new start ceremony is a wonderful way to mark the beginning of a new one. Whether it's celebrating a major personal achievement, a significant life change, or embarking on a new path after overcoming challenges, these ceremonies are tailored to symbolise the closing of one chapter and the hopeful, optimistic start of another.
Each of these ceremonies is crafted with the utmost care, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of their importance in your life. They are more than events; they are treasured moments that acknowledge change, celebrate progress, and honour personal journeys in the most respectful and meaningful way.
