Celebration Circles
A milestone such as the transition from maiden-to-mother, bride-to-be or a significant birthday, is a beautiful opportunity to host a women's circle, co-created and guided by a facilitator, to celebrate and honour this time with your chosen attendees.
The circle is a safe and supportive space where participants can feel seen, heard, and validated in their experiences and challenges, while also receiving guidance and support from other women. Throughout the circle, participants are encouraged to listen deeply, share authentically, and practice empathy and compassion towards themselves and others.
The circle is led by a facilitator who creates a structured and intentional space, perfectly curated based on the wishes of the host.
Bride-to-be Circles
A bride-to-be circle is a unique experience to celebrate and support the transition of the bride-to-be into this next chapter of her life. It is a safe and supportive space where the host and participants can come together to reflect, and share their experiences and wisdom related to their own experience.
Maiden-to-mother Circles

Birthday Circles
A women's birthday circle is a unique and empowering experience designed to honour the journey of the host, reflect on learnings from the year that's gone and share wisdom for her year ahead.
