What happens at a naming ceremony?
The simple answer to this is that it can be whatever you want it to be.
Elements that can be included are:
I will listen to your ideas and use these to tailor a service that suits you and your child, your individuality and your style. I have suggested readings, poems and promises that I can share with you as examples, to help you with your planning. I will provide a copy of the service in advance to you, and this can be altered as much as is needed to make sure that it is a perfect fit and I will be on hand throughout the naming ceremony to guide you through and ensure that it runs as smoothly as possible.
For clients that live outside of Sussex, Brighton Baby Naming can provide you with a completely bespoke, personalised ceremony script for you to host your own Naming Day ceremony, wherever your location. Please contact us for more details.
