A living funeral is a truly unique experience for those attending and gives you, the ‘guest of honour’ a great opportunity to say goodbye to your loved ones in a way that you prefer.
Here’s what I’m able to do to make your living funeral a really memorable event:
- I can visit you at your home or another venue of your choice to discuss the ceremony with you.
- We will decide what the content of the ceremony will be and who will be involved.
- I can help you to select suitable music, readings, poetry, or anything else that you wish to include.
- I can write a tribute if you think it appropriate or work with you to create one.
- I will send you a copy of the entire ceremony for your approval.
- Between our first meeting and the event itself, we can liaise to edit any aspect of the ceremony until you are completely satisfied.
- At the event itself, I can conduct the ceremony and liaise with any other organisers to ensure that everything runs smoothly.
- Once the living funeral is over, I can supply you with a printed copy of the ceremony for you to keep, and an electronic copy to email to friends and family.
I must stress that the content of the living funeral is completely your choice and nothing will be included that you have not agreed to. If you or other members of your family or friends wish to take part in the ceremony in any way, by taking on some of the readings, the tribute or even singing a song or playing an instrument, then that is easily arranged. I would liaise with them to make sure that the ceremony delivers what you expect. I am simply there to facilitate your wishes and can create and deliver some or all of the ceremony, as required.
