Baby Blessings

Baby Blessing ceremonies are a beautiful non- denominational way to welcome your baby into the world.  They can be conducted shortly after birth through toddler or school age when the child is able to celebrate in his/her own way.

Baby Blessing ceremonies celebrate your child’s unique spirit, promise your commitment as a parent; and can also welcome the child into your extended family, family of choice or a larger community. 

It is always an honor to bless a baby, but even more so when I am able to continue a connection with couples I officiated for over the years.

I’d be happy to discuss with you the components you would like to include in your ceremony, just drop me a line via the Contact Me page or give me a call and we can set up a time to meet.  There is a great deal of flexibility offered.

Fees- Baby Blessing
In Monroe County the  fee for a Baby Blessing is $175 if before it is held at noon or before. 
If it is after 12 noon, the fee is
$250.  If your Blessing will be held outside of the county, contact me with the address  and I will quote a fee.
 
Parents who book a Baby Blessing will receive the password so that they can select the components they want to incorporate into their child's Baby Blessing.  Parents please note:  The pronouns can modified, ceremonies can be adapted to any situation/family combination/adoption

Thank you for officiating such a lovely ceremony yesterday.  I am so glad you were available and able to bless both of our children - it makes me feel complete in a way. -8/2020
