                                     Separation Rituals
    Everyone is aware that many marriages do not survive.  There are varying reasons for this.  Carolyn and Tom have officiated weddings that have not lasted.  A few years ago a couple whose wedding Tom had officiated, asked to meet for a ritual of separation: the severing of the bond formed a number of years earliler.  This was a blessing for the couple, as it provided opportunity to express in the ritual both the gifts and difficulties of thieir years together, as well as making fully conscious the decision to end the marriage relatiohship between them.  Because of this experience (and it was not the only one), Carolyn and Tom decided to offer such a ritual to others who might wish such a  ritual.
     So if on reading this, it speaks to your need, please contact us and we will arrange a meeting with you.
