divorce ceremony
A formal ceremony to officially end a marriage by exchanging divorce vows and returning the wedding rings. As divorce becomes more common, a divorce ceremony can provide people involved with a sense of closure to an important chapter of life.
Many culture rituals exist for important life transitions such as a new born celebration, baby showers, graduation ceremonies, engagement parties, wedding receptions, housewarming parties, funerals and memorial services. However, divorce, as another important transition of life, has largely been ignored.
The recent Chinese movie "IF YOU ARE THE ONE II" showed an elaborate divorce ceremony between a successful business man and his wife, which generated a lot of interests among wedded couples looking to part their ways.
