"My baby blessing was the most magical and meaningful ceremony of my life. Hannah folded my words with hers and created a blessing script that was unique and personal for me, my son, our family, and friends."
"Hannah's presence along with the service she provided for my daughter's blessing was absolutely amazing! It was very heartfelt and unique! She puts all of her heart into the process and has really beautiful energy and grace."
"Our entire family was completely blown away by the beauty of our daughter's blessing ceremony. There was a happy, loving energy which everyone carried afterwards that lasted all day and it's a memory that we will cherish always."
"Hannah was the officiant at our wedding and when we began planning our son's baby blessing we knew she had to be a part of the celebration. The ceremony Hannah crafted was everything I was hoping for and more!"
The arrival of a child is one of the most meaningful and exciting events in a family's life and many of us long to celebrate the occasion in a memorable way. Whether you are adopting, giving birth or becoming a blended family, together we can create a beautiful ceremony that will be unique to you and your child.
I happily offer free initial phone, FaceTime, Skype or in-person consultations. ​This is a time for me to learn about you and your vision for the ceremony and for you to get to know me a bit and see if you'd like to work together. Contact me to set up your free consultation!
Be it relaxed or formal, spiritual or secular, private or with family and friends, I offer three blessing ceremony packages for families and children including baby and child blessings, adoption and naming ceremonies, alternative baptisms and more.
​​Ceremonies range in price from $200 to $400, depending on the size and complexity of the ceremony, level of personalization and any travel expenses. I include 50 miles of travel in each package; additional miles are calculated at $0.55 per mile.
Each ritual and ceremony is different because every person, child and circumstance is unique. Some occasions cannot be outlined in a package, such as mother blessings or blessingways, fertility and birth healing rituals, and ceremonies to mark the loss of a pregnancy or death of a child. I hope you will contact me to see how we might create a ritual or ceremony for you.
Whenever possible, I am glad to offer my services to individuals and families regardless of their ability to pay. Sliding scale and pay what you can options can be discussed during our initial consultation.
One of a Kind Ceremonies are the best choice for families who want a truly once in a lifetime experience. This is a ceremony you and your guests will always cherish. Each parent (if in partnership) gets to complete a detailed questionnaire; your answers help me create a beautiful, fully customized ceremony telling your unique story using your own words and sentiments.
Perfect for incorporating religious, spiritual or cultural traditions, One of a Kind Ceremonies have unlimited potential: research and suggestions for rituals, readings, blessings and songs, ideas for participating in the ceremony and special ways to include godparents/guideparents, grandparents, siblings or other family members and friends.
This package also includes unlimited email/phone support and you get to read and comment on each draft of the ceremony until it is exactly as you envision. You'll get full access to all my samples and a printed, bound keepsake copy of your ceremony. My One of a Kind Baby Blessing Ceremony package is $450.
Customized Ceremonies involve an in-depth conversation where I get to know you, your child and your family. This allows me to share the heart of your story and make the ceremony beautiful, meaningful and unique. I also provide you with a ceremony outline and you and your family are welcome to participate during the ceremony.
This package includes up to two readings and customized rituals such as a water blessing, blessing beads, naming of godparents/guideparents or honoring of family members and friends. You'll get sample readings, ritual planing help and a digital keepsake of your ceremony. My Customized Baby Blessing Ceremony package is $350.
Simple yet meaningful and poignant, I use my handwritten ceremony with ideas and embellishments from our conversation to feel heartfelt and special. You may choose to include a ritual such as water blessing or blessing beads, and a reading may be selected to further enhance the occasion.
