Importance of Ceremony | Why Hire a Ceremonial Leader Our Background


Ceremonies used to be pretty straight forward.  People were born into the same community in which they married, had children, and eventually died.  Customs were seldom questioned.  Today, though, people often live far from their families of origin, question the practices and beliefs they knew as children, and find partners who bring different traditions, customs, and beliefs to the relationship.

Finding someone to lead a ceremony, let alone create one, isn’t always easy.  Ceremonies and Event Planning of the Finger Lakes can work with you to help you meet your unique ceremonial needs.  Whether we are creating a wedding/commitment ceremony, a baby naming ceremony, a B’nai Mitzvah service, or marking any other special life moment, our philosophy is based on humanistic values:  equality, dignity, inclusivity, warmth, and belief in human potential.
