Naming Ceremonies
Fancy celebrating the arrival of your little one with a ceremony in your garden? How about welcoming foster or adoptive children to the family at a local beach, or changing your own name in your favourite wooded area? As a non-religious celebration with no legal aspect, a Naming Ceremony allows you the freedom to create your own unique celebration.
