Thankyou for visiting my site, I offer a variety of ceremonies to celebrate
Weddings, Namings, Commitment Ceremonies, Renewal of Vows, Funerals and Memorial
Services and for each type of occasion there are many options and choices for
each types of ceremony. My role is to work with you to design the perfect
ceremony and then assist in producing a stress free, enjoyable and memorable
ceremony.
The
Baby-Naming’ Ceremony is an expression of Joy, Hope and acceptance as well
as your official announcement of the chosen names and formal welcome to the
new addition to the family OR a young child, step-child/children in an
extended family, adoptee or a foster child.
You are welcome to include adult supporters that
you have chosen to assist your child
through life. This is a time for all to
quietly examine our duty over the coming years, and assist your child by
developing a broad view of life and encourage them to portray the virtues that
we all cherish - integrity, honesty, compassion, fairness and love towards their
fellow human beings".
This ceremony service can be as personal and customized as you wish, and
will assist you to to celebrate life as a couple. Not only does the
ceremony bestow all the excitement of a marriage, it also allows couples and
their family and friends to rejoice at their courage and integrity to live
life to reflect their joint values.
Reaffirmation of Marriage Vows
Couples who are already married are not able to go through a further
legal ceremony of marriage, however, through a re-affirmation of marriage vows
ceremony, they can re-affirm their original marriage vows, promises and ongoing
commitment to each other.
Rituals
To assist you in planning your ceremony, a large selection of wording, vows,
verse and prose is available, and I can support you in designing all aspects of
your ceremony. Family and friends are also welcome to participate or contribute
with verse or music. (Also - " Many couples request the performance of a ritual
during their to ceremony as a way of assisting them to move forward in their new
lives. This may represent the blending of two families, children from other
relationships, closure for a bereavement in a past relationship or even allowing
a member to cast out sad memories. Should you like a ritual added to your
ceremony this can be accommodated - See options for these at the
RITUALS page).
Funerals
Funerals ( After June 2008) - My role as a Celebrant is to create a ‘celebration
of life’, to develop a eulogy that is an accurate and authentic representation
of the person who has passed on, paying tribute to their joys, sorrows,
qualities, relationships and achievements; big or small. A ceremony based on
your requests will be developed by speaking to members of the bereaved family,
and nominated relatives, relatives and work colleagues. Your thoughts often so
hard to be spoken at this time, can be shared as part of the ceremony.
