main content Naming Ceremonies

A Naming Ceremony is a very special way of celebrating the birth of your child and welcoming the new arrival into the family. It is also ideally suited to welcome an adoptive child or to embrace stepchildren into a new family.

The child or children can be any age. A Naming Ceremony is an opportunity for not just parents but grandparents and other special adults to feel involved as they pledge their love and support for your child's future development. 

Where can I have a ceremony?

Ceremonies can be held at Bromley Civic Centre, or in any of our licensed venues.

What is included in the ceremony?

  • Parents promises to the child
  • Parents can affirm they relationship with each other
  • Supporting adults promises to the child
  • Readings
  • Grandparents can be involved

Cost

Costs vary depending on where the ceremony is held. If you book your celebration at Bromley Civic Centre the fee will include the hire of the room for the duration of the service, a celebrant and a personalised ceremony. Please phone for more details.
