Please would you all come and stand around Daniel and his parents and link arms to form a circle. Just as your hands have been linked to form a chain, so each of you will be a link in the future of this family. As you now surround them, let this be a symbol that you are surrounding them with your love and care.
The Laurel that we will be planting today is symbolic of the new life we are celebrating, It’s growth represents Zoe’s’s development into adulthood and it will remind us all of the commitment we have made today.
I would now like to ask everyone who is holding a flower to come forward and place them into this vase. These roses are symbols of the love you have for Sophie. The flowers are placed in the vase along with all of your hopes, best wishes and love for her.
Welcoming twins into your family is double the giggles and double the grins, and double the trouble if you’re blessed with twins!
Wishing you many smiles and happy times to come
May life’s adventures be exciting and sweet
Filled with love from the friends that you’ll meet
You’ll soon grow up for time does fly
May today and tomorrow and all days hereafter
Be days that are happy and filled with your laughter.

One of the most exciting events in a family’s life is the arrival of a new baby or child, whether by birth, adoption or joining of families and many of us would like to celebrate this occasion in a memorable and special way.
When Children come into our Lives
When children come into our lives, they bring a world of joys,
laughter and discoveries, kisses, hugs and toys.
Each day brings new surprises, special wonders to explore.
When children come into our lives our world is new once more.

The Guild of Cornish Celebrants has been set up by Denise and Nicola to promote quality celebratory ceremonies which fully reflect the wishes and beliefs of the couples and families they work with. The aim of The Guild is to give an assurance of excellence – they are passionate about providing bespoke and unique ceremonies for any occasion. The hallmarks of a mediaeval ‘Guild’ were their professional ability and demonstrated accomplishment; they are redefining the ‘Guild’ concept for the 21st century, bringing a traditional quality standard to a new contemporary offering, ensuring ceremonies from the Guild always meet or exceed our clients’ expectations.
After a very successful meeting with Nicola and Denise from the Guild of Cornish Celebrants, I am pleased to announce that I am now an Associate of the Guild performing ceremonies in Devon for them. I will continue to help you create and then conduct your unique and individual Ceremony where ever and whenever you wish. I believe that your Ceremony is at the very heart of your day.
Together we will create meaningful memories, which will bind you closer and give joy to all the special people on your special day.
