Yours to Celebrate Your Way

We humans have been marking and celebrating significant life events and achievements with special rituals for thousands of years. Ceremonies represent the human need to mark transitions or milestones in our lives

Imagine Something Beyond the Ordinary.

Birth and Naming

Welcome a new child into the world or an adopted child into the family with honesty, warmth and affection.  Many parents appoint 'Guideparents' for their child as supporting adults or mentors.​

Coming of Age

This rite of passage celebrates a young person's transition into the adult community. Their unique personality is celebrated, adult responsibilities are outlined, and values such as social justice, human rights, equality for all and compassion are emphasized.​

Celebration of Life

This non-religious service is both a dignified farewell, acknowledging the profound sadness of loss, and a celebration of the life and legacy of the person who was known and loved. ​

Celebrating This Life, This World.

Ceremonies express the human longing to honour special moments in our lives. Over the past decades I have helped people create reflective and life-affirming rites of passage ranging from weddings and funerals to coming-of-age ceremonies and baby namings.

A ceremony can be celebratory, or it can be healing and help someone deal with a transition. Consider an 'Unbirthday' party that would allow a loved one with a terminal illness to say goodbye to friends while still healthy enough to enjoy it. Or think of a 'Croning' to celebrate with older women friends as one transitions to being an Elder/Wise Woman. What a positive way to deal with aging! An often-overlooked opportunity for healing might be an intimate ceremony with close friends to acknowledge an abortion or miscarriage. At the other end of the scale, a fun opportunity to party might be a boisterous House Blessing ceremony.  ​

If you can imagine it, we can create it!
