My ideal collaring ceremony:
micki enters the area chosen by Master for the ceremony blind folded and naked. Void of all earthly possessions. A bowl of purified water is placed in her hands.
Master: “With this water the past is washed away. All the pain, fear, and loneliness. All the sorrow that has weighted you for so long.” Now using a new sponge, Master dips the sponge into the water micki is holding and beginning at her feet, he begins to wash her. He washes every part of her, commanding her to move her body around in ways that he desires. i.e. “spread your legs”
Master: “With this lace I wrap you up and dress your body with my love and protection” Master wraps micki in the lace and removes her blind fold.
On a table nearby are two roses and a vase. Master picks up a white rose and hands it to micki. He then picks up the red rose for himself.
Officiator: “The white rose that micki holds is a symbol of her submission to Master. The red rose that Master holds is a symbol of his heart and his willingness to share it with micki.”
Master then pricks the ring finger of micki’s left hand with a thorn from the red rose and allows two drops of blood to fall on the petals of the white rose.
Officiator: “These two drops of blood from micki that have been shed by Master are to symbolize his acceptance of her body and soul.”
Master then pricks his own ring finger of His left hand and allows two drops of blood to cover micki’s blood on the white rose.
Officiator: “The two drops of blood from Master’s finger that cover micki’s blood are also symbols of their union. The first drop signifies Master’s willingness to give his life to protect micki if necessary. The second drop of blood signifies the sealing of their union.”
The two roses are then placed in the vase together and Master and micki press the two pricked fingers together.
Officiator: “In pressing their fingers together they are signifying their vow to become one in flesh and blood. The two roses will remain in the vase with them until their union has been consummated.”
Master then walks over to the center again and states “micki, would you join me please?”
micki: “It would be my honor Master.”
Master: “micki, it is my intent to offer you my collar as a sign of your submission to me. Are you willing to accept it?”
micki: “It would be my greatest pleasure and joy Master, yes!”
Master then turns toward the small table which now contains a beautifully adorned box. Inside the box is a special collar that has been made especially for me.
micki: “Pink!”
Reaching into the box, Master gets the collar and walks back to micki.
Master: “Kneel”
micki kneels before her Master.
Master places the collar around micki’s neck but does not lock it.
Master looks into micki’s eyes with love and says his vow to her.
Officiator: “Master please repeat after me. With the placing of this collar around your neck…. (Master repeats)
And your acceptance of this collar…(Master repeats) I vow to do everything I can to be worthy of you…(Master repeats) I promise to hold you and keep you safe….(Master repeats) to stretch you and give you flight….(Master repeats) To respect the needs of our relationship above all else….(Master repeats) To love you, to honor you…(Master repeats) to support you in all things (Master repeats) and to be sensitive to your needs and desires. (Master repeats) I acknowledge the trust you have placed in me…(Master repeats) and the responsibility that goes with that trust….(Master repeats) I will never violate or even threaten to violate that trust. (Master repeats) I acknowledge and accept with all my heart (Master repeats) the gift of yourself you have made available to me. (Master repeats) This collar will be a symbol of that which we already know…(Master repeats) that you are mine. (Master repeats) and by wearing it, you will always be safe to be everything that you are. (Master repeats)”
Officiator: “micki, do you accept this collar that Master has given you to symbolize your union with him?”
micki: “ i do accept this collar with great pleasure.”
Officiator: “Then repeat after me… Master it is of my own free will (micki repeats) with clarity of mind heart and conscience (micki repeats) that I surrender my life to you(micki repeats) submitting to your will in all things. (micki repeats) I accept your collar as the outward and visible sign of my deepest joy. (micki repeats) that I am yours…(micki repeats) I gladly accept your authority and trust you to guide me on the right path. (micki repeats) I vow to honor you with my every thought word and action. (micki repeats) I promise to stay with you (micki repeats) support you (micki repeats) and fulfill your needs and desires as you allow me to. (micki repeats) you are the center of my universe, (micki repeats) the light of my life (micki repeats) and the love of my heart. (micki repeats) I give my love to you. (micki repeats) I give my heart (micki repeats) my mind (micki repeats) my body (micki repeats) my all to you now and always. (micki repeats).”
Master then reaches out and closes the lock on Micki’s collar.
Officiator: “Master repeat after me… micki, I will never forget the responsibility that I have undertaken here. (Master repeats) I am charged with your well-being in all you do. (Master repeats) My decisions will affect you in every way. (Master repeats) Your life is literally in my hands. (Master repeats) and I will never shy away from that responsibility. (Master repeats) but I will use this power you have given me wisely. (Master repeats) I will never consider only myself. (Master repeats) I will always remember that you will follow me where ever I may go. (Master repeats) I will not lead you into Masterger(Master repeats) and I will be mindful that you will look to me for guiMasterce and teaching in all things. (Master repeats) I promise to learn from you what is good and safe for you(Master repeats) and be prepared to give as much or more that I receive from you. (Master repeats) The Masters hand is a double edged sword. (Master repeats) It can give you pleasure and it can punish you. (Master repeats) I will never forget that, and will consider every facet of any situation before using that power. (Master repeats)I will never use this power out of anger. (Master repeats) and I will always be justifiable. (Master repeats) Thank you for giving me the gift of you and your submission micki.” (Master repeats)”
Master then takes micki’s hand and helps her to rise. Then we kiss.
AttenMastert then binds Master’s hand to micki’s.
Officiator: “Master repeat after me… What are you pet?”
Master: “What are you pet?”
Officiator: “micki repeat after me….“I am yours… always yours. (micki repeats)You have my mind, (micki repeats)my body, (micki repeats)my soul. (micki repeats)You are the keeper of my secrets, (micki repeats) my fears, (micki repeats) my inner demons. (micki repeats)You own my laughter, (micki repeats)my tears, (micki repeats) my frustrations. (micki repeats) Everything I have is yours… (micki repeats)to do with as you see fit… (micki repeats)always…”
Officiator: “Master repeat after me… “Yes, You are mine. (Master repeats)My possession, (Master repeats)my angel, (Master repeats) my slut, (Master repeats)my pet, (Master repeats)my baby girl. (Master repeats) I will use you whenever I desire. (Master repeats)I will guide you, (Master repeats)teach you, (Master repeats)hold you, (Master repeats)correct you, (Master repeats)and punish you. (Master repeats) I will treasure you gift as the most precious thing in the entire world. (Master repeats)You will obey me, (Master repeats)and I will listen when you need me. (Master repeats)I will be there for you just as you are there for me. (Master repeats)We are one, (Master repeats)unbreakable and connected for all time. (Master repeats)You will need no other.. (Master repeats)as I will need no other. (Master repeats)You are mine. (Master repeats) Now and always. (Master repeats)”
The binds are then removed and Master ties micki to a tree for a public flogging.
Officiator: “This public flogging will be Master’s first act of ownership over micki and micki’s first act of submission to Master.”
Master then flogs micki three times. micki is then flogged by any Dom or Master who wishes to flog her. micki is then unbound and they both sign the contract and the party begins!
