Why Choose a Divorce Ceremony?

 

Unlike traditional, litigation centered divorce, Divorce Ceremonies allow you to get closure in a healthy, positive way with the focus on the process of healing and moving on. Closure is important not just for you and your partner, but for your children and community.

Court centered divorces tend to hold you in a pattern of antagonism and anger, prolonging the healing process.

Divorce ceremonies allow you the option of divorcing with dignity and closure.

 
 
 
 

The greatest gift you can give your family is peace of mind.

Give yourself, your family and community the gift of forgiveness. The peace and power you gain from forgiving yourself and one another, in front of your children and your support network is invaluable.

How can a divorce ceremony help you move on?

A divorce ceremony allows the parting couple to set the tone of their uncoupling. Divorce ceremonies focus on the positive, giving parents, children and loved ones a chance to honor the good in one another and in some instances to speak their peace or acknowledge their faults. This is a diametrically different experience from couples who go through an often arduous and costly court divorce.

How can I make my divorce ceremony unique?

Each ceremony is specially designed according to the expressed needs of the couple involved. In some ceremonies, people may want to just keep things positive and say a few words about the fact that although you may be going separate ways, you still appreciate and honor one another. The fact that this is said in front of an audience of your children and the friends you have met through your union is priceless medicine for moving on. Instead of dividing friends and creating an uncomfortable vacuum filled with idle gossip about what may have happened, a divorce ceremony creates space for understanding and compassion.
