New Tradition: The Most Personal Ceremony for a Unique Day

In every life, there are certain occasions that call for ceremonies — the arrival of a child, the onset of adulthood, a wedding, the loss of a loved one. Recognition of these milestones mark one’s passage through life and gives community and family the opportunity to come together. As our society grows increasingly secular, so grows the need for personal celebrations that accurately reflect the beliefs of the individual. We always place the highest importance on helping you craft a ceremony that is unique and personal to everyone involved. Every celebration starts with the people involved. We start by asking about your history and what you are looking for in the occasion.

Working WITH YOU To Build The Perfect Occasion

At New Traditions, we will work with you to help you build the perfect event from start to finish. Importantly, we never impose my own preferences or any unwanted traditions on your day. We are there to help you, to put you at ease about the plans you are building, and to be an experienced voice you can trust.

Why a Non-Religious or Humanist Ceremony?

The fully personalized ceremony is the choice of the future because every aspect can be built around you, your life story, your passions, and your plans. These events are becoming the most popular of all occasions across Europe, and rapidly growing in number in the United States. In the modern world, many couples and families come from very different traditions or no religious tradition at all.

Freedom, Choice, and A Day For Everyone

A Humanist wedding ceremony completely breaks free of those boundaries and constraints, leaving you complete choice and the ability to fully meet everyone’s needs. If you want traditional elements from any culture, We can help you integrate these into your wedding celebration. If not, you can build something totally unique. Either way, we promise we can help you build a wedding day everyone will remember fondly forever.

Incredible!

Scott worked with us through 2 weddings (our tiny 2020 pandemic "micro-wedding", and our 2021 larger renewal celebration). Scott is an absolute pleasure to work with, and we cannot thank him enough for being a part of both celebrations. He is very professional, charismatic, and incredibly easy-going. You will be in for a fantastic, memorable ceremony with New Traditions. We cannot recommend Scott's services enough! Thank you so much, and we wish you all the best!!!! :)

So happy we hired Scott

We didn't want a religious ceremony but still wanted something special and not your typical ceremony. Scott gave us so many different options to choose from that we decided not to write our own vows and picked something from the list that was perfect for us. We even got to pick how he started the ceremony and a reading. Our choices were probably a bit different than most but we loved it and so did everyone else. There were tears and there was laughter it was great and this was only the budget option I can't even imagine how incredible his personalized ceremonies are

Very helpful

Scott was a pleasure to work with and helped my husband and I through every step of planning our ceremony. I love that he offers different packages at different price points and a variety of options within each package. Our ceremony was beautifully written and spoken and made our day very special. I would highly recommend him for your big day!
