It is the free, non-denominational alternative to a christening: a personal ceremony in which your child is festively welcomed into life among family and friends – with an individual speech, rituals and, if you wish, godparents.
Where can the celebration take place?
Wherever you like: at home, in your garden, at your favourite restaurant or at a special place in nature. The celebration should take place where you feel at ease.
Can godparents be involved?
Yes, very gladly! Godparents can take part with their own readings, promises or rituals – entirely according to your ideas.
Which children is the ceremony suitable for?
All of them! Whether you have just become parents, adopted a child or welcomed a foster child into your family – every child deserves a heartfelt welcome celebration.
