A naming ceremony is a great way to celebrate the birth of a new baby or to welcome an adopted child or stepchild into your family and wider community.
Many families choose to hold a naming ceremony to celebrate the arrival of a new family member.
Naming ceremonies have no legal or religious requirements with the opportunity to create a personal and unique ceremony.
Special opportunity to share your hopes and dreams for your child. You will have the option to include readings and music in the ceremony, or a different element such as planting a tree or bulbs, lighting candles, or creating a memory box.
As there is no legal aspect to the ceremony, it can be held wherever you wish, as long as you have the necessary permission.
Ceremonies can be held at home, in the garden, in a park, in the woods, in a hotel or in your local community Centre.
