Mother Blessing​

honoring the journey

A Mother Blessing is a beautiful pre-birth tradition which has become more popular in recent years. It is very different from a conventional baby shower, which is traditionally more about the gifts. A Mother Blessing is ALL about nurturing the mother and filling her with love and confidence as she awaits crossing the threshold into motherhood. Even if it’s not her first baby, it’s her first time with this baby. 

We would love to customize a beautiful ceremony for you and your closest friends.

FAQ

Mother Blessing

Every ceremony is personal but we recommend no more than 12 people.  This seems to be the sweet spot where the ceremony is still small enough to be intimate.  On the flip side, we have done blessings with as few as 3 people in attendance.

We are always happy to host mother blessings in our space or yours.  We’ve done blessings on the beach, in hotel suites and a variety of other locations.

The blessing ceremony itself is about an hour.  Many mothers will serve food/refreshments either before or after the ceremony.
