Naming Ceremonies & Celebrations of Birth
The moment you decide to celebrate a new life, a new name, or a new beginning, with the people you love, something special is already happening. My job is to make sure your ceremony matches that feeling completely.
I create naming ceremonies for families across Essex, London and beyond who want to celebrate identity, belonging and new beginnings in ways that feel warm, genuine and entirely their own. Whether you're welcoming a new baby, celebrating an adoption, honouring a blended family coming together, or marking a change of identity, I'm here to help you shape something that reflects who you truly are.
Every family is different.
Every family is different. Your ceremony might be joyful and a little chaotic, gentle and reflective, or somewhere beautifully in between. Children can be involved in as many ways as you'd like, from symbolic gestures and readings to promises, or simply being their brilliant selves. All of it is welcome, and all of it belongs.
These ceremonies are built around love, affirmation and connection. I'm more than happy to weave in symbolic elements that feel meaningful to your family's story, whether that's candle-lighting, naming ribbons, sand-blending, a keepsake box, or something entirely your own.
I particularly love working with families celebrating identity in all its forms. Whether you or your child are embracing a new name, honouring a gender identity that finally feels right, or marking a transition that deserves to be witnessed, these moments matter. They deserve to be held with care, warmth and genuine joy.
Naming ceremonies are some of my absolute favourites to create. If you're looking for a celebrant who brings heart, creativity and real inclusivity to your day, I'd be honoured to help you make it one your family carries with them always.
