Ritual & Ceremony
with Amy Rodquist, MA
I create and facilitate rituals and ceremonies for times of celebration, loss, transition, and becoming. These are experiences designed to help you feel seen, grounded, and supported as something important unfolds.
Ritual is a fire we gather around - - a place of warmth, reflection, and light as we step into what comes next. Joy has room to deepen. Grief is given dignity and care. Thresholds that might otherwise feel overwhelming become moments we can stand inside with steadiness and meaning.
Through thoughtful design and facilitation, I help individuals, families, and groups slow down, listen for what matters most, and honor the passage they are moving through.
Gatherings, Rituals & Ceremonies
The following examples offer a glimpse into the kinds of rituals and
ceremonies I’ve created and facilitated with clients.
End-of-Life & Vigil Rituals
-
Gentle, family-centered rituals that help loved ones prepare, stay present, and find moments of meaning, grounding, and connection during the final stages of life.
Marriage & Commitment Ceremonies
-
Thoughtfully designed ceremonies that reflect a couple’s shared values, story, and intentions. Creating a ritual that feels authentic, spacious, and deeply personal.
Baby Blessings & Welcome Ways
-
Ceremonies that honor new life, invite community support, and mark the profound transition into parenthood.
New Home Blessings
-
Grounding rituals that help individuals or families consciously arrive in a new space while also honoring what’s being left behind. Setting intentions for safety, belonging, well-being, connection, and care.
Uncoupling & Conscious Separation Rituals
-
Compassionate ceremonies that honor the end of a relationship with closure, clarity, and respect. Can be created for both partners together or for one person individually. Supports emotional regulation, meaningful completion, and steady forward movement.
Life Transitions & Threshold Rituals
-
Personalized practices to mark moments such as career changes, retirement, menopause, milestone birthdays, identity shifts, or other significant crossings where the old no longer fits and the new is still forming.
Remembrance Ceremonies
-
Rituals that offer structure and tenderness in the wake of loss. This creates space to honor love, memory, and ongoing connection for beloved people and animals.
Healing & Restoration Rituals
-
Simple, embodied ceremonies designed to support recovery after burnout, illness, trauma, or prolonged stress. This helps the nervous system settle and reorient toward safety and wholeness.
Seasonal & Nature-Based Rituals
-
Ceremonies attuned to the rhythms of the Earth. Honoring solstices, equinoxes, full moons, and seasonal turning points. These guided experiences invite reflection, renewal, and deeper alignment with the natural cycles that shape our inner and outer lives.

Ritual Bundle
design, facilitation & full support
This bundle includes consultation, ritual design + my presence as facilitator. I guide the ceremony from beginning to end, attending to pacing, emotional flow, and group dynamics so you can fully be in the experience rather than managing it.
My experience as a facilitator brings an added layer of support, especially for moments that carry complexity, tenderness, or strong emotion.
You’ll walk away with:
-
A fully held ritual or ceremony, guided with steadiness and care
-
Relief from having to “do” or manage the moment
-
A shared experience that feels meaningful and complete
-
A sense of having been accompanied through something important
This option is especially supportive for end-of-life moments, uncoupling rituals, family ceremonies, and significant life transitions.
Pricing: Ritual Bundle
