Janet O'Connor Celebrant
Discover the beauty of a Naming Ceremony, welcoming all new additions to your family.
​
If you have decided to celebrate this special moment with an event, whether through birth or adoption, I am here to create a wonderful ceremony that reflects your family values, hopes and dreams.
​
A naming ceremony can be hosted in your home, garden or at any venue of your choice.
​
You have the flexibility to involve siblings, grandparents, other family members and friends in the ceremony, incorporating music, readings and rituals to make it truly special.
Let's begin the journey ...
We'll begin with a complimentary chat to see if we are a good fit (no obligation).
​​
To secure the date, you will need to pay a client contribution to the Humanist Association of Ireland of €40 and a booking deposit of €50 directly to me.
​
We will meet up in person or via zoom to chat about your plans for your naming ceremony. I can help with reading, poem and music choices and you can decide if you would like to include any rituals such as wish trees, bubbles, candle lighting or sand blending.
​
I will ask you to complete a naming questionnaire so that I have some information about your family and your wishes for your child/children.
​
With your input, I will create a first draft of your ceremony script and share this with you for any edits you would like, to make sure we have the wording exactly how you want it.
​​
Final draft of the service will be prepared and sent to you for your sign-off.
​​
On the day, I'll deliver a beautiful welcoming ceremony for your family and friends.
