Although I officiate a lot more weddings than baptisms, I really enjoy doing other rituals as well.  I was a part of Dave and Jenna’s wedding two years ago, so it was a joy to be asked to do a baptism for their one year old daughter, Elizabeth.

What does Koru mean?

KORU (kor-roo) is the Maori word for “loop.” For the indigenous people of New Zealand, the koru spiral represents a fern frond beginning to unfurl. The koru symbol embodies new beginnings, a new phase of life, renewal, hope for the future, positive change, personal growth, working in harmony, bringing people together, and being mindful of the good things in life.

At Koru Ceremony, we strive to personify these ideals and celebrate a new beginning through ceremony and ritual.
