Funerals, Burials, Memorials and Remembrance
As your celebrant, I will be dedicated to providing a suitable ceremony that says goodbye to your loved one in a way that is right for you and in a way that honestly and respectfully reflects the personality of the one we are saying farewell to.
I will come to your home and discuss with you your needs and requirements. We will talk about what type of ceremony you require and together we will tailor-make the ceremony to include what aspects you’d like- perhaps song, music, prayers, hymns for example. Any aspect of the service can be personalised, anyone who’d like to read can be included, or I will be able to read in their place. You may wish to include religious aspects, you may not. You may choose to incorporate items from other religions or spiritual beliefs, you may not.
There is no right or wrong.
With me as your celebrant, you have completely free reign to the type of service you require- where (crematorium, forest,sea), when, how… it is totally up to you. I will honour you and your loved ones wishes. You have total freedom of choice.
You may choose to have a celebrant- led memorial or scattering of ashes, or a natural burial. Again, this ceremony can be where and how you wish. A beautiful celebration of the life of a special individual, celebrated in a way that reflects their personality.
Alternative themed funerals, medieval themed or Viking themed memorials are possible.
A celebratory ceremony to share the memories of a special individual’s life is possible- with no ashes or coffin present if that is what you wish. This type of ceremony could involve all who knew them as a positive reflection of the joy that individual brought to everyone’s lives.
I will be with you from start to finish, sympathetic to your feelings of grief and loss, designing the ceremony right for you and delivering it professionally and respectfully on the day.
I can also provide drumming, vocals/song or music if requested. A special piece of music can also be composed with Michael, my partner, if desired.
