Saying goodbye to those we love is never easy.
Providing personal, tailored and loving funeral ceremonies for your special person
After Life Ceremonies
"Love doesn't end with dying,
Or leave with the last breath.
For someone you have loved dearly,
Love goes on forever."

When life ends, a new journey begins. A funeral offers an opportunity to give your loved one a personalised and meaningful send-off. Whether it is a funeral, a burial, a memorial or a scattering of ashes, it is the final chapter of their life story. So, close their book with love, laughter and tears.
As a funeral celebrant, I can provide a celebration of life, free of religious constraints. Especially significant if religion is not in harmony with your loved one or their grieving family.
Let me take some of the weight off your shoulders by helping you write this final chapter. We can meet and go over stories and family history. The script can be short or detailed. Some prefer music with few words or a combination of words and a favourite song.
A personalised funeral ceremony offers the opportunity to come together. Take comfort from the memories, the music, photos and slide shows and the unique rituals your loved one lived and believed.
It gives you, family and friends a chance to tell the funny stories, share the great memories and achievements. It's the opportunity for tributes and a time to remember who this person was and how they lived their life.
I am a local to the area. I understand our community and our ways. Please do not be afraid to ask if you have an idea you would like to include in the final celebration of your loved one. Anything is possible. Don’t restrict your thoughts because you are afraid ‘it’s not the norm’ or ‘what people may think’. You know your loved one better than anyone.
Gathering to celebrate the passing of your cherished is the opportunity to re-live their life in full glory. I'm here to support you and make it a celebration filled with love and memories. Celebrate their life the way they would. Be colourful, be bold and play that music loud.
After we meet, I will create the draft funeral ceremony and email it to you. We can discuss any changes over the phone. And then you can approve a final version. On the day of the funeral, I will dress to complement the nature of the service.
