Every New Life Deserves to be Celebrated!

Pregnancy, childbirth, and the newborn period are a wonderful time to share the joy of your growing family with friends and loved ones.  Whether this is a first baby or a fifth, celebrations to honor the family and welcome baby are always appropriate!  
 
In a time when friends and loved ones may live far away, or may not have the knowledge or resources to plan the celebration that you wish to have, WellBegun is here to help!  We offer comprehensive planning and hosting services for a variety of celebrations:  
 

Mother Blessings 

Also known as Blessingways, these intimate, ceremonial gatherings offer a wonderful alternative to the typical baby shower.  They focus on celebrating the transition from pregnancy into motherhood, whether for a first or subsequent baby.  It is a time to honor the mother and offer her moral and practical support for the birth and the early postpartum period. 
 

Baby Showers 

Particularly with a first baby, many mothers would like a typical American baby shower with cake, games, and gifts.  This can be great fun, and help outfit a nursery.  Various themes and activities create an enjoyable experience for family and friends in female or co-ed settings! 
 

Welcome Baby Parties  

Celebrations are not limited to pregnancy!  A "Welcome Baby" or "Coming Out" party can be a great opportunity to celebrate the baby and let him or her meet family and friends on the outside!  While these are often similar to a baby shower, the baby is obviously the center of attention.  
 

Memory Books

As an add-on to any type of party, WellBegun can set up a means for your friends and loved ones to send messages or pictures that will be bound into a custom book for you to enjoy and cherish for a long time to come - perhaps to share with your baby someday.  This can be a great way to involve friends and loved ones who are unable to participate in a gathering.     
 
  






"Birth is a portal, and the way through is indeed a potent rite of passage, not only for mom, but for dad (or partner), baby, and the new family that is formed.  Consciously moving through this doorway is important." 

-- Anna Stewart, "Mother Blessings"
