Baby & Child Naming Ceremonies by Elaine Foster Celebrant

Celebrating Family with Elaine Foster Celebrant

A name is the very first gift you give your child, full of meaning, love, and hope for the future. It’s a moment worth celebrating, and a Naming Ceremony is the perfect way to do that.


Much like a traditional Christening, a Naming Ceremony brings family and friends together to welcome your child into the world but without any religious content. It can be as formal or as relaxed as you like, tailored to suit your style and values.


These ceremonies are wonderfully inclusive. Older siblings, cousins, and children from blended families can all be part of the celebration, helping to create a sense of unity and belonging.


You might choose to include symbolic gestures, such as a sand ceremony, where each family member pours a different coloured sand into a single vessel, creating a beautiful keepsake that represents the unique blend of personalities and love within your family.


Whether you’re welcoming a newborn, celebrating an adoption, or honouring a child at any age, a Naming Ceremony is a heartfelt way to mark this special chapter in your lives.

Baby & Child Naming Ceremony

£250

Package details:

  • A free initial meeting to get to know each other and chat about your ceremony ideas.
  • Follow-up meetings face to face or on zoom, to explore your ceremony requirements in detail.
  • A personalised ceremony script, shared with you 4 weeks before the big day (once the final balance is paid), with plenty of time for adjustments.
  • A venue visit closer to the date to finalise logistics.
  • A rehearsal, if you'd like one, not all families choose to have this.
  • Unlimited support during the planning.
  • Conducting the ceremony.
  • Travel within a 40 mile radius (additional costs apply outside this range, 45p per mile). I am based in Mawsley, Northamptonshire, NN14 1GJ.


To secure your booking, I ask for:

  • A signed booking form.
  • A 50% deposit, with the remaining balance due 4 weeks before the ceremony.
  • If you'd like to include elements like a sand ceremony, you're welcome to source those yourself, or I can provide them for a small additional charge.


It’s so important to find a celebrant who understands your values and can help you create a ceremony that feels just right for your family.


If you have any questions at all, feel free to ask, and if you'd like to arrange that free first meeting, just let me know.
