If you’ve been searching for a way to honor a loved one without a religious service—or if traditional funerals just don’t feel like the right fit, you’re not alone.
Maybe you’ve been to a service that felt distant. Formal. Like it could’ve been for anyone. And you walked away thinking: That didn’t feel like them.
More and more families are choosing something different: heartfelt, inclusive ceremonies led by celebrants who take time to listen, understand, and tell the story of a life well lived.
🕊 What Is a Funeral Celebrant, Really?
A funeral celebrant is someone trained to create and lead custom end-of-life ceremonies
that reflect your loved one’s values, spirit, and personality.
We are not clergy. We don’t follow a script or require religious language.
What we do is listen. We craft something meaningful, from scratch that honors who your loved one truly was, in a way that feels emotionally authentic to your family.
A celebrant helps you create a ceremony that feels personal, not performative — one where every word and gesture feels like your person.
🌿 Is This the Right Fit for You?
A funeral celebrant might be the right guide if:
💫 Your Ceremony, Your Way
There is no "one way" to say goodbye. A celebrant gives you permission to shape a ceremony around what truly matters: the person, the connection, the life.
Whether you want a moment of silence under the trees or a tribute full of music and memory, the beauty of a celebrant-led service is that it bends to you—not the other way around.
If you're planning something that feels different—a garden gathering, a sunset beach memorial, or even a virtual tribute for faraway family—this is a path built for you.
💬 Let’s Create Something That Reflects You
“April is ONE OF A KIND! She listened to stories from 5–6 family members and told the story of our uncle so beautifully. She captured a part of each of those she spoke to and truly relayed how the family loved him… She truly is a superb celebrant and captures every detail.”
— Suzanne Beck, Walk Manager – Long Island, Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America
If you’ve been wondering what your options are or how to honor someone in a way that feels
real, I’d love to talk.
You don’t need all the answers — just the desire to honor someone you love. I’ll help you create something beautiful, together.

A funeral celebrant might be the right guide if:
- You identify as spiritual but not religious — or not religious at all
- You want a more personal, story-driven ceremony
- Your family is blended, interfaith, LGBTQ+, or nontraditional
- You’re planning something nontraditional—a backyard service, a beach ceremony, a Zoom memorial
- You want warmth, clarity, and calm during a hard time
