Naming ceremony
Welcome to Venue Sandal Tree Banquet Hall in Ghaziabad!
A naming ceremony is a special event held to celebrate and officially name a newborn baby or young child. It is a non-religious or secular alternative to a traditional baptism or christening ceremony. The purpose of a naming ceremony is to introduce the child to family, friends, and the community, and to give them their chosen name in a meaningful and symbolic way. Naming ceremonies can vary in format and style, depending on cultural traditions and personal preferences. However, they typically involve the following elements:
- Gathering: Friends, family members, and loved ones gather to witness the ceremony and show their support for the child and their family.
- Welcome and Introduction: The ceremony begins with a welcome address, where the host or an officiant acknowledges the importance of the occasion and introduces the child and their parents.
- Reading or Poem: A meaningful reading or poem related to children, love, or the significance of names may be shared. It can be a piece chosen by the parents or one that holds personal significance to the family.
- Naming Announcement: The child's chosen name is officially announced. The parents may explain the meaning behind the name and why they selected it.
