Today, babies are still welcomed formally into their communities all over the world by way of ceremony. We are delighted to offer stunning baby naming ceremonies in Dorset and beyond to those of all faiths and none.
Baby namings in all their varieties, have formed a sacred rite of passage for communities welcoming precious new life into the fold since the ancients first walked the Earth.
What greater cause for joy than when a tiny new soul arrives to join us on planet Earth?! For our ancestors, being recognized as one of the tribe’s own not only meant love but protection – and therefore, life itself!
In this way, a new baby is formally introduced to their family and community, and if desired, those who will have a special role in the baby’s life can come forward and make their vows in the presence of the gathering.
As a poet, playwright and storyteller, it also brings me great joy to create completely new ceremonies for those who desire something specific – or for those who have no idea what they want – and I thoroughly enjoy idea storming with my clients over copious cups of tea.
One of the most popular baby naming ceremonies I offer is deeply rooted in the ancient symbolism of the four elements – Earth, Air, Fire and Water.
Earth represents family and the home, Air represents higher learning and wisdom, Fire represents creativity and passion, Water is the home of emotion and experience.
During this ceremony, Baby, parents and guests are guided through a gentle, loving journey around the wheel of the elements in honour of this beautiful new life.
Our Baby Naming packages range from £298 – £589.
