A baby naming ceremony is a joyful and meaningful occasion, celebrating the arrival of a child and formally welcoming them into their family and community. As an independent celebrant, I create bespoke baby naming ceremonies that are personal, inclusive, and memorable.
Each ceremony is thoughtfully written and professionally delivered, ensuring it reflects your values, wishes, and the significance of the moment.
A Personal Celebration
Baby naming ceremonies offer families the opportunity to celebrate their child in a non-religious or lightly spiritual way, without the formalities of a christening. The ceremony is entirely flexible and designed around you, your child, and your family.
Whether you prefer a relaxed gathering or a more formal occasion, the ceremony will be structured with care, warmth, and clarity.
What the Ceremony may Include:
A baby naming ceremony can include:
• The formal announcement of your child’s name
• Welcoming words and reflections on family and belonging
• Readings, poems, or music chosen by you
• The inclusion of parents, grandparents, and siblings
• The appointment of supporting adults or “guide parents” (if desired)
• Symbolic elements such as candle lighting or promise statements
I will guide you through each option, ensuring the ceremony remains appropriate, engaging, and meaningful.
Locations
Naming ceremonies can be held at a location of your choosing, including:
• Private homes or gardens
• Parks or outdoor venues
• Function rooms or hired venues
There are no restrictions on location, allowing you complete freedom to create a setting that suits your family.
Professional and Reassuring Service
Families value my:
• Calm, friendly, and professional manner
• Experience in public speaking and ceremony delivery
• Attention to detail and careful preparation
• Ability to create a relaxed yet dignified atmosphere
My role is to ensure the ceremony is conducted smoothly and with sensitivity, allowing you to enjoy the occasion with confidence.
