What do your funeral services cost?
My price for conducting any type of funeral is £250. This includes a visit to your home or another place of your choice to talk about the ceremony you want and for me to learn about your loved one. You can have as many people present at this meeting as you wish, and I will be happy to hear as much about your person as possible. I will the
My price for conducting any type of funeral is £250. This includes a visit to your home or another place of your choice to talk about the ceremony you want and for me to learn about your loved one. You can have as many people present at this meeting as you wish, and I will be happy to hear as much about your person as possible. I will then produce a draft service which I will share with you, with unlimited edits to ensure that we create the send off that you want and that your loved one deserves. I will be at the Crematorium or Chapel on the day of the service at least 30 minutes in advance and will be there to ensure that things run smoothly on the day.
Please note, if you have booked me through a Funeral Director, you will probably pay this directly to them and they will reimburse me. If you have booked me directly, then I will liaise with the Funeral Director to ensure you are only charged once.
Get in touch, I'd love to help you celebrate the life of your loved one.
Can I plan my own funeral?
Can you help me to do my end of life plans?
What do your funeral services cost?
Of course you can. You could work with me to plan a service for me to deliver when you have died, but why not consider a "Living Funeral" - you get to work with me to plan the event, with the benefit that you get to be there and spend time with your loved ones before you die, rather than waiting until after the event. Get in touch and we can discuss what you want.

We've had a baby but we aren't religious. Is there an alternative to a Christening for us?
End of Life Planning can help you to put your affairs in order long before you need to. You can get all your paperwork in order and even make your wishes clear for when you reach the end of your life. Knowing your wishes will make things easier for those who are left behind. Get in touch and we can chat about what you need.

Absolutely! A Naming Ceremony can be designed according to your own needs and can incorporate different symbolic elements and include whatever family members you want. It can also be held anywhere you want.

Absolutely! A Naming Ceremony can be designed according to your own needs and can incorporate different symbolic elements and include whatever family members you want. It can also be held anywhere you want.
Naming ceremonies are not legal ceremonies, so the only restrictions are basically those of good taste. You can have any venue you want, from your back garden to your wedding venue to your local pub, and you can include any features you want (I have lots of ideas!) If you don't want a religious service, but want to include some religious aspects, I am also happy to accommodate this. We can also include as many people as you want - siblings, family members - the sky really is the limit.
You might be wanting a Celebration of Transition, again, we can talk about symbolic ways of marking the change from your old identity to your new one and giving those who love you the opportunity to celebrate your new identity.
The price of Naming Ceremonies is £250, this includes visiting you at your convenience to plan the event, up to three drafts of your service for you to agree and my attendance at the venue of your choice to conduct the ceremony.
Get in touch, I'd love to work with you to create the perfect event for you.
My pet died, can you help me do something to remember them?

My pet died, can you help me do something to remember them?
First of all, can I say how sorry I am for your loss. Our pets are very precious to us and sometimes those without animal friends don't realise how important they are.
I can help you to mark your pet's loss by working with you to create a service that honours the part they played in your life. This might be at a burial or perhaps burying
First of all, can I say how sorry I am for your loss. Our pets are very precious to us and sometimes those without animal friends don't realise how important they are.
I can help you to mark your pet's loss by working with you to create a service that honours the part they played in your life. This might be at a burial or perhaps burying their cremated remains. As pet services tend to have less people present and a shorter eulogy, these are charged at £125. I will meet with you and hear about your pet, then create a draft service which I will share with you. I will then do any edits required before the service which I will, of course, attend. I will lead the service if you wish, or support you to do so.
Get in touch, I'd love to help you remember your pet and honour the role they played in your life.

A standard cremation or burial can sometimes feel quite rushed. There are time limits and you are generally limited to a couple of pieces of music, a few people being able to say anything and whilst you can have a double slot, it will cost more. However a Celebration of Life removes all those limitations. It can be held wherever you want
A standard cremation or burial can sometimes feel quite rushed. There are time limits and you are generally limited to a couple of pieces of music, a few people being able to say anything and whilst you can have a double slot, it will cost more. However a Celebration of Life removes all those limitations. It can be held wherever you want and you will have the venue for however long you have booked (you could even hold it at your home, or that of a friend, which will remove all time constraints.) It might be that you hold it somewhere that was important to your loved one, or somewhere that you know will help you create lovely memories - it really is up to you.
You can have as many people contributing as you like, and as many pieces of music or readings as you want. You might have your person's ashes present, or you might take everyone on a guided walk where you pause at landmarks to share memories. You really can do anything you want, and I would love to work with you to create the perfect event to remember and celebrate your loved one.
The price of my input into a Celebration of Life service is £250, this includes visiting you at your convenience to plan the event, up to three drafts of your service for you to agree and my attendance at the venue of your choice to conduct the ceremony.
Get in touch and let's plan something perfect.
