The Hardest Thing I've Ever Had To Do Is Say Goodbye To You...

We understand that today is a day you have probably dreaded your entire life. We know that a funeral is a day to let go, to scream, cry, shout, grieve and be angry but there's more to a funeral than just sad emotions. A funeral is also a joyful way of remembering that person's life, a celebration of all the treasured memories you hold and a way to share family stories. A gathering of love to say goodbye to the people we treasure the most.

• A one hour Home visits.
  
• Email and Phone Support.
• Everything you need on the day, I will be there 30 minutes before the start time.
  
• Religious, Non-religious or Humanistic content.
  
• Guidance in choosing prayers, music, poems and family readings.
  
• Catering specifically to your needs, there is no right or wrong way.
  
• Working with your choice of Funeral Directors.
  
• A lovely presentation of the ceremony, a little keepsake to remember.
  

From £190 or via your funeral directors.

A Memorial Service is where the body is not present. This type of ceremony is for family and friends unable to make the funeral due (e.g. to it being in another country or a way to celebrate their life less formally.) There are no restrictions to a memorial service. They are a lovely way to remember that special person-either by their graveside, in their favourite location, or indoors. The choice is yours.

We also offer Scattering of Ashes and Interment of Ashes Services.

Do not stand at my grave and weep

I am not there. I do not sleep...

"I was lucky enough to have Daniel perform my handfasting in October 2016, it was structured to my personal beliefs and was magical in every way. The support from Daniel from start to finish was amazing, I had none spiritual people there and many were in tears with the beauty of the whole experience"

Edwina & Martin

"I was lucky enough to meet Daniel while looking for someone to perform my sons naming ceremony. It was the perfect ceremony for us, everything I hoped it would be. I can't recommend Daniel highly enough"

Declan's Mum Jenna

Thank you again for everything and for being so kind and warm. Everyone has said what a beautiful and genuine ceremony it was and so many people were really taken with you and your lovely kind manner.
