Celebrating the arrival of a new child (or children) into your family and circle of friends should be a happy and special occasion. Many parents choose to mark it by having a Humanist Naming Ceremony. Elements of the ceremony often include:

• the formal naming of the child or children
• commitments to the child or children from parents & other relatives, such as siblings and grandparents
• commitments from adults taking the roles of Guideparent or Supporting Adult, or however to be called - fulfilling the equivalent role to godparents
• readings
• symbolic gestures such as the lighting candles, planting a tree or releasing balloons

As no two ceremonies or families are the same, I will help you to ensure that your ceremony is exactly how you want it to be – a happy and truly memorable occasion.
