Planning a Lockdown Naming Celebration
When Nicole ( Bonnie Wee Ceremonies) got in touch over on Instagram she explained that they'd been planning a humanist celebration for their family and friends in Ramsbottom, Lancashire.
Which included the beautiful gown that had been made out of her wedding dress, previously worn by her eldest daughter Roslyn, and lots of personal touches to make it really special for Bronagh.
Sadly a local lockdown came in to place in Ramsbottom due to Covid19 and it meant that households couldn't mix and they couldn't welcome even the Grandparent's over to celebrate with them.
Instead of postponing (and risking Bronagh not being able to fit in to her dress) they thought it could be wonderful to capture the unique naming celebrations anyway and wondered if my relaxed, documentary style of family photography and videography would be the perfect way to document this historical and unique family moment.
They even downsized the cake and had naming cupcakes made so they could deliver them around to family and friends who were joining virtually on Zoom instead of in person.
Despite the lockdown restrictions there are still lovely ways to include family and friends in a really personal Naming Day celebration...
