To be part of and to witness a blessing way is like being a goddess draped, cuddled, and encircled in a blanket of etherial beauty, high intention, and heavenly nourishment. The ancient ritual of a bridal blessing way honors a woman's transition into a lifetime of love and marriage. A day devoted to sacred love, support, and guidance through the honorary maiden's transition. Women gather to create an enchanted space as a community effort. These goddesses sing, chant, dance, write, eat, offer, encourage, reflect, and share the joys and challenges of marriage, all while massaging, treating, and adorning, the bride to be, as a symbol of how she will continue to bloom and transform as she steps into this new stage in her life. A celebration of honesty, love, admiration, and deep rooted connection like none other.
