Celebrating a New Life – Child Naming Ceremony
A child naming ceremony is a beautiful way to welcome your child into the circle of family and friends - emotional, personal, and created entirely around your wishes. Together, we celebrate the miracle of life and create a special moment filled with love and unforgettable memories.
Every ceremony is individually tailored to your family. Personal words and wishes, meaningful rituals such as wish cards, a candle ceremony, or planting a tree of life, your favourite music, and the involvement of siblings, family members, and loved ones make the celebration truly unique. Whether modern, relaxed, or deeply emotional - the focus is always on your story and what matters most to you.
A child naming ceremony is a wonderful choice for families looking for a personal and heartfelt alternative to a traditional baptism and who want to welcome their child into the world in a very special way.
I look forward to getting to know you and creating a loving ceremony together that celebrates your family and your little one.
Your Questions About a Child Naming Ceremony
A child naming ceremony is a personal and heartfelt alternative to a traditional baptism. In this free and individual ceremony, your child is welcomed into the circle of family and friends.
At the heart of the celebration are your child’s unique story, your family’s values, and the people who will lovingly accompany your child throughout life’s journey.
Every child naming ceremony is individually designed to reflect your family and your wishes. A typical ceremony includes personal words about your child’s story and your family’s journey, the introduction of special people or godparents who will accompany your child through life, heartfelt wishes from your guests, and a meaningful symbolic ritual - such as lighting a life candle or collecting personal messages.
Music and contributions from family members can also be included to make the celebration truly personal and unique.
There is no set time for a child naming ceremony. Many families choose to celebrate during the first few months of their child’s life, while others prefer their child’s first birthday or a time when family and friends can come together.
What matters most is that the moment feels right for you and your family.
The cost of a child naming ceremony depends on the individual requirements, the scope of preparation, and the travel involved for the celebrant. The fee usually includes a personal consultation, the creation and writing of your individual ceremony speech, as well as conducting the ceremony itself.
A baptism is a religious ceremony and an important part of a faith community. A child naming ceremony, on the other hand, is a free and personal celebration without religious requirements.
You can design the ceremony entirely according to your own wishes, values, and traditions, creating a meaningful way to welcome your child into the world.
