Naming Ceremonies
A Naming ceremony is a public and official welcoming of your child into your circle of family and friends. It recognises the role of the Parents, Grandparents, Godparents or Guardians or Mentors and all of the people that are important in the life of your child.
If there are other children in your family, it is nice to include them in the ceremony. I can present them with a certificate on becoming a big brother or sister if you wish.
In personalising your ceremony, I would like to have some background about the Godparents so that I can include in the ceremony why they were chosen. Perhaps they are close family or friends or someone who has been committed to your and your child.
It is also an exciting and proud occasion for the Grandparents and Great Grandparents. If you wish to acknowledge them for their support they can be acknoweleged in the ceremony.
My aim is to personalise the ceremony for you and your child to make it a memorable occasion for you to cherish and remember always.
