Fairy Ceremonies!
Fun | Fun | Fun
I love fairies!
It is part of who I am, I love legends, folk lore and mythology.
If you are reading this there is a possibility that you too love the Fae folk, and enjoy the immersion into the fairy realm.
So, how does this work with weddings, naming's and other ceremonies? The direct answer, is how would you like it to work for you?
Some couples want a full on themed ceremony where everyone including the celebrant and other vendors dress up, and this is fabulous, other couples prefer to take elements of their interest and incorporate the elements into vows, readings for example.
​
The prices for these ceremonies are the same for other ceremonies. The only exception is if you require the celebrant to wear a certain outfit which will need to be either provided or paid for by yourselves. I do however have a variety of far ware that i use for festivals and for fun.

​
Hand Tying : Suitable for those who might be getting engaged at the festival or have recently got engaged. This ceremony is also perfect for renewal of vows for our Fae folk who have been married a while and wish to celebrate a renewal amongst fairy friends.
In this simple ceremony, you get to choose the colours of ribbons whose symbolism resonate with you, the celebrant will then take you through promises for engaged couples and newly married couples, and re promises for those who are having a renewal. You will get a commemorative certificate, a special fairy gift and will have the opportunity to purchase a tiara to take a away with you.
​
Naming ceremony: Have you recently had a baby? would you like a naming ceremony at the festival? I have created a simple version of a naming ceremony which is fairy themed where you can welcome into the world and the fairy community your child. You can choose guide parents to guide / care for your child when you are absent and to help you with parenting duties on a daily basis (after all, it takes a community to raise a child). You will receive a commemorative certificate and a special gift to remember this beautiful occasion.
​
Fairy Naming ceremony: This just for fun short ceremony for children allows your child to adopt a fairy name along with fairy naming certificate and a brand new fairy wand, your child will be presented with a naming badge to proudly show the new fairy status. Your child will be asked whether they promise to try to be good, and to make good wishes to help others. This little ceremony can have multiple children, but it is generally capped at five at a time due to space the ceremony space.
​
Friendship ceremony: For teens and adults! This beautiful little ceremony, asks that the individuals make promises to each other to be their for their friends, to support and love their friend, and to be with them in times of fun, and also in difficult times. A certificate of commemoration is given for all taking part.
​
Other ceremonies can be carried out, some of the most popular are freedom ceremonies for those who have newly separated from previous attachments. Coming out ceremonies for those within the LGBT community who have come out as openly gay.
​
Due to the nature of the Festival community is everything, we actively encourage onlookers to cheer and to wish you well. I am a fully qualified and experienced celebrant, who carried full insurance. I carry out full ceremonies as you can see within the other pages of this site. However, due to the nature of festivals, festival ceremonies are shorter and less detailed.
