As part of her service Emma strives to provide a completely unique ceremony. Below are samples of some of the pieces she has written
Wedding ceremony:
By Air, by Fire, by Earth and by Ether do I bless and consecrate there rings. Rings have no beginning and no end, as with life, as with love.
May these rings be a reminder of the vows, which you have made to one another and your eternal bond, which can never be broken.
They are also symbols of the circle of frineds and family in which we all now stand as witness.
Above you are the stars
Below you are the stones
As time does pass remember
Like a star your love should be constant
Like a stone should your love be firm
In all affairs of your relationship remember to be true to yourselves
Be loving in response to your vows
Make love often and be sensuous with one another
Have no fear, and let not the words or ways of the unenlightened give you unease
For the Goddess and God are with you Now and Always

Naming Ceremony:
When a child enters this Earth it is time to take a deep breath
For in those moments when time stands still, a miracle takes place and a bright light shines upon hope
With all her strength and courage the baby makes its long awaited journey towards her parents arms
Amongst which she feels her place in the world and is constantly safe.
Songs are sung and wishes are made in these precious moments. Names are whispered through the breeze and come to settle on knowing ears.
