Hi, I'm Helen

Just because " A Christening is always how its been done!" is being muttered in your ear - IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THAT WAY!

Personally I just don't think that babies are born into sin so why have a religious ceremony that starts with saying this?

Humanist naming ceremonies allow non-religious or mixed-faith parents to welcome their child in a way that feels personal and relevant to the lives that they actually lead.

Not really sure what a naming ceremony is? Best thing is to give me a call and we can chat about ideas.

I am lucky enough to be based in the heart of England in Worcestershire, but am happy to travel all over the country to conduct amazing ceremonies for amazing people.

"Oh wow Helen!!! Stunning!!! It took me ages to read it because I kept crying!

You have capture all we said so well. How did you do that?? Thank you, so much.

WE LOVE IT!"

Humanist naming ceremonies

A humanist naming ceremony is a joyous event, and the perfect opportunity to gather friends and family to welcome your child into the world, with no reference to religion. It focuses on the child, their future and the circle of love and support around them, offering a sincere and personal alternative to a christening or other religious ceremony.
