Wedding Ceremony

The most recognised ceremony throughout the world - a Wedding symbolises the coming together of two people in love. The celebration can include just the couple themselves, or be a celebration of family and friends.

Marriage ceremonies incorporate legalities and require a small amount of additional process for the couple - the Our Spiritual Earth Solemnisers can assist with all details

 

Re-Affirmation Ceremony

Be-it if for a significant anniversary, for a re-commitment to vows, or even as an annual celebration, a Re-Affirmation of Vows or Vow Renewal ceremony celebrates the love that a couple have to each other and, if chosen, along with their children and families.

Naming Ceremony

A naming ceremony’s purpose is to officially give a child their name. It has an extended purpose of presenting the child to their community, family and friends and to celebrate the arrival of a new person into that community.

Funeral and Committal, and Celebration of Life ceremonies

Celebration of Life/Funeral & Committal - A ceremony that looks back over the life of the deceased and is life centered, celebrating that life. Various family members and friends can be included in delivering their memories of the deceased or perhaps reading a suitable poem. The ceremony is looking back at the person, who they were, the impacts they had on their family, their community, their friends, etc.

Committal Only - A ceremony held at the crematorium or graveside. This will include brief words about the deceased, a reading and then the words of committal. This can be followed by another reading finishing with a favourite piece of music or a song.
