Fáilte – Welcome to Pagan Life Rites Ireland

The image depicts a romantic wedding scene, with a bouquet of white roses illuminated by soft string lights placed on a wooden table. A glass box, likely for cards or keepsakes, is also visible on the table. In the background, out-of-focus figures, possibly the wedding couple and guests, create a warm and celebratory atmosphere, enhanced by hanging lights. The Pagan Life Rites logo is clearly visible in the foreground, centered at the bottom of the image, adding a personal touch and connecting the scene to a meaningful, spiritual ceremony.

Supporting Pagan Communities, Building a Better Future Together

We offer our clergy services and support to the public regardless of practice, race, gender or sexual orientation.

Pagan Life Rites Clergy are respectful, open, and welcoming to everyone.

Pagan Clergy Services with Pagan Life Rites

We provide a wide range of spiritual and ceremonial services rooted in both Pagan and Traditional Irish customs. Our dedicated clergy offer meaningful, bespoke rituals for key life transitions, whether you seek state-recognised ceremonies or personal, unregistered rites. With a deep respect for Irish heritage and the diverse spiritual needs of our community, we create sacred spaces for moments of celebration, reflection, and transformation.

Marriage Rituals & Handfastings

We offer a variety of marriage rituals, including both State Registered (legal) and Unregistered (personal) ceremonies. Whether you wish for a traditional Irish wedding or a Pagan handfasting, our clergy will work with you to craft a ceremony that reflects your values and beliefs. We also provide Marriage Vow Renewals, allowing couples to reaffirm your love and commitment in a heartfelt and spiritual way, with friends and family.

Funerary Rituals & End of Life Service

Our Pagan and Traditional Irish Funerary Rituals honour the passing of loved ones with deep reverence and connection to both ancestral and natural cycles. Whether you are seeking End of Life Spiritual Support, a funerary ritual reflecting Pagan beliefs, or a traditional ceremony that reflects Irish customs without Church involvement, we’re here to guide and support you through this significant life transition with compassion and care.

Rites of Passage & Ceremony

We recognise and celebrate life’s major milestones through a variety of Rites of Passage. From Baby Naming and Welcoming Rituals, which introduce new life into the community, to Coming of Age Rituals that mark the transition from childhood to adulthood, we offer ceremonies that affirm identity and belonging in a sacred, meaningful way. Each of these rituals fosters a deeper connection to the community and the individual’s spiritual journey.

Life Rituals & Celebration

Life’s transitions, such as Separation or Divorce, can be challenging. Our Separation Rituals provide a way to honour the end of a relationship with respect and closure. Similarly, Croning Rituals celebrate the wisdom and power of women entering their elder years, marking this new phase of life with grace and dignity. Each of these rituals is designed to offer healing, empowerment, and acknowledgment of life’s ongoing journey.

The image shows two hands clasped together in a gesture of unity, with colourful handfasting cords wrapped around their wrists. The cords are braided in vibrant colours, including red, green, blue, white, and gold, symbolising the binding of two people in a Pagan wedding or commitment ceremony. One person is wearing a silver ring, while the background features lush green and yellow foliage, adding a natural, vibrant touch to the scene. This image represents a moment of connection and the sacred tradition of handfasting in Pagan rituals.
