What is a naming ceremony?
Whether you’re welcoming a baby or child into your family, or celebrating a new chapter as an adult, naming and adoption ceremonies are all about identity, belonging and marking the moment in style. The beauty of these naming ceremonies lies in the personal touch. Embracing identity through a personalised ceremonies can be so special.
Your ceremony can take place anywhere – at home, in a sunlit garden, or even your favourite local café.
Getting to know you
When we meet, you will tell me their entire story. Everything from the first hello until now.
We will talk about why you want a ceremony, what’s important and what this means to you and your family.
Creating their Ceremony
Once I have their story, I will go away and write your ceremony. I write everything from scratch, taking care to get the important details right.
You will always get to sign off the ceremonies to make sure it’s right and throughout that process, you will have unlimited contact with me for those inevitable last minute questions and changes.
The Celebration
I will officiate on the day, leading you and your friends and family through the entire celebration. We will celebrate together your new addition (or circumstance) in a way that feels just right for you.
For adults, naming ceremonies can be a powerful way to honour change – whether you’re embracing a new name, a fresh identity, or simply stepping into a new version of yourself. It’s about celebrating where you’ve been, and where you're headed.
Your writing radiates positivity and affection, perfectly capturing the love, values, and joy surrounding Frankie and his family. The storytelling felt authentic, personal, and full of warmth.

Gill officiated our Wedding on Saturday! She has been amazing throughout, nothing was too much! She had made sure to get our story right and it was so lovely to share out story on the wedding day.
She made sure that everything we wanted was carried out and made sure to co-ordinate on the day, speaking to our photographer and venue. Even going the extra mile to check out our wedding venue before the day. Thank you so much for making our day so special.

Gill was amazing and such a lovely lady who made both Ian and me feel at ease! She literally saved the vow renewal by jumping in last minute and we could not have been more grateful.
I would highly recommend her to any couples looking for someone who is calm and giving individual.

Gill recently officiated our wedding and we couldn’t have had a better day. We felt Gill got to know us, understood us, who we are and what we wanted, and tailored the day, it was perfect.
We’re not the most traditional of people and don’t like to conform to the usual wedding norms, Gill didn’t bat an eye lid. The day went as expected, Gill was so lovely, and we would highly recommend her – thank you x”
