Funerals & Memorials

"Grief is the price we pay for love." - Queen Elizabeth II

Being a celebrant is something I’m truly passionate about. I feel privileged to guide individuals and families through some of life’s most meaningful moments, creating ceremonies that genuinely reflect the unique life and story of each person.

Whether religious, semi-religious, or non-religious, my aim is to craft heartfelt experiences that align with a family’s values—be it a traditional burial, a pure cremation, or something entirely unique. These moments provide an opportunity for closure, bringing people together to remember, share stories, and find comfort in each other’s presence.

A memorial ceremony offers a thoughtful and versatile way to honor your loved one, giving you the freedom to create a tribute that truly resonates. Unlike a conventional funeral, memorials provide flexibility in both timing and location, allowing you to choose a setting that feels most fitting—whether indoors, outdoors, at home, or in a place of special meaning like a beach or park.

These ceremonies can incorporate music, photos, videos, meaningful rituals, and shared stories, fostering a rich and personal experience. Free from the formal constraints of traditional funerals, memorials allow for an intimate, vibrant, and deeply meaningful farewell, celebrating the legacy and unique life of your loved one. It’s a privilege to help families create a heartfelt expression of who their loved one was, offering a lasting celebration that brings comfort and honors their memory authentically.

Feel free to reach out to me by email, text, or phone—I’d be happy to hear from you. During our initial conversation, we can discuss your requirements, preferred date, and the details of the service to ensure everything aligns perfectly with your needs.

Initial Chat

In Depth Meeting

Next, we’ll have an in-depth conversation, either in person or over Zoom, to go through all the important details. This is an opportunity for us to ensure you feel confident and comfortable working with me. From this discussion, I will create for you a personalised service including eulogies, music & hymns, readings and slideshows.

Approval

The eulogy will be sent to you for approval and I will be on hand to support you throughout. Feel free to contact me about any last minute changes and I will be happy to assist.
