Extended Service into the Wake Venue

Would you like me to extend the Ceremony into the Wake Venue. Following the funeral ceremony I’m happy to come to the Wake so that family and friends can have more time to share any stories that they wish to or maybe read a poem.

I can play pre-chosen music for one hour at the Wake. You can choose music that has a special relevance to your family and loved one.

Full Ceremony at your chosen Venue

Would you like to have a more relaxed ceremony at a venue of your own choosing, where you can invite children along to, giving them an opportunity to be included in this very important occasion instead of being excluded.

A great way to say a very personal goodbye and include all of your family is to have the Celebration of Life Ceremony at a more family friendly location.  This will give you more time (no more 30 minute rushed ceremonies) for poetry, contributions from family members, more readings, tributes and as many music choices as you want.  You can play music pre-chosen by you and your family, that has special relevance to you and your loved one.

When considering the kind of venue that will be suitable it can be anywhere that hires a room for get togethers. A golf/football/rugby club or a hotel venue would be ideal. Even your home/garden if you have enough room and  I’m happy to advise you on this option.

Initial meeting is free of charge
