Celebrating
and honouring the events, milestones and love that make up
your journey in life is something that should be as personal,
unique and beautiful as possible. And because these events
are part of your experience, they should reflect your personal
tastes, wishes and lifestyle. We don't believe any church,
religious group or other "authority" should dictate
how, where or what your celebrations of love and life should
include... nor should anyone else.
That's why we brought together the diverse and
professionally trained staff who make up the Celebrate Love
- Celebrate Love Officiant Network. Whether your event is
in a park, by the ocean, in the mountains, at a banquet hall,
civic centre or house of worship, your ceremony will be unique,
memorable and respectful of your style, beliefs and traditions,
and as individually tailored as you wish.
Your officiant will assist you in planning the
ceremony of your dreams -- one that reflects who you really
are, spiritually, personally, and emotionally.
Our officiants are available for all types
of events, ceremonies and milestone occasions, including:
Weddings
Commitment Ceremonies
Baby naming or blessing
Memorial Services
Funerals
Renewal of Vows
Handfasting
Adoption
Elopement
Sacred Unions
Civil Unions
House Blessings
Ship Christening
Coming of Age Ceremonies
Croning
Family Blending Ceremonies
Companion animal memorials
Ritual Cleansing (Smudging)
Phowa (Shedding of the Mortal Coil) Ceremony
...or any other important life event
Celebrate Love - Celebrate Life is a non-denominational,
interfaith network of professionally trained, cerified and
licensed officiants, who come from diverse backgrounds, faith
traditions and personal philosophies. However, what we share
is a commitment to serving the individuals, couples and families
in a very personal, respectful and individualised way. In
fact, the spiritual tradition or beliefs of the officiant
should not ultimately matter, because your celebration is
about you, and should be about YOUR beliefs, YOUR philosophy
and YOUR traditions... not theirs.
As a result, whether you want a secular or civil
ceremony, a traditional (or non-traditional) Catholic ceremony
or nuptial Mass, a traditional Jewish ceremony, a Celtic handfasting,
a non-denominational Christian ceremony, a commitment ceremony,
a secular yet spiritual wedding, or something very non-traditional,
we have the right Officiant for you! All of our Officiants
are Licensed Marriage Officiants, and most perform other ceremonies,
as well.
