An intimate alternative to a hen’s night, the Bride Circle celebrates a woman moving into one of the most significant stages of her life - marriage. The Bride receives love, good wishes and blessings from her Circle.

What happens in a Pre Wedding / Bride Circle?

Whilst each Circle is unique and is tailored to meet individual needs, below are some of the options that can be included in the Bride Circles;

A beautiful altar complete with flowers, candles and crystals sets the mood in the middle of the Bride Circle.

• The Bride Circle opens with an explanation of the ceremony as well as cleansing of the room with a ‘smudge stick’ - a native American custom used to prepare a space.
• An optional short chant is offered to quiet the mind.
• A short, guided meditation continues the process of relaxing and unwinding. 
• Guests share stories and wisdom about the gifts and challenges of marriage or bring along a favorite story/poem/blessing or symbol that represents marriage/Guests share stories and celebrate their friendship with the Bride.
• Pampering time for the Bride begins. She reclines on a sofa, eyes closed and listening to beautiful music. Friends lay their hands on the Bride, sending her love and energy - A wish or blessing for the Bride is written on a beautiful card and presented to her in a special bag as each guest lights a candle to symbolise their wish or blessing.
• Closure of the Circle, which can include dancing to the Bride’s favourite song to celebrate as well as presenting her with a beautiful booklet to keep - full of special mementos from the Circle’s guests and honouring their individual friendships with her.
• Materials are tidied away, leaving the guests to celebrate in another way - eating and drinking!
