When someone we love dies, we want to do right by them. We want the goodbye to feel like them—not like a formality, not like a template, but like a true reflection of their life, their spirit, and their story. But too often, funerals follow a preset structure. Families walk away feeling like the person, they were honoring was missing from their own ceremony.
There’s another way.
A personalized funeral ceremony gives you the space to say goodbye with meaning, warmth, and dignity—on your own terms.
💫 Why Personalization Matters So Deeply
Every life is different. Every relationship is its own. Why should we all be remembered
the same way?
Personalized ceremonies allow space for:
When a ceremony feels true to the person, it doesn’t just honor their memory—it helps us begin to heal.
🛠️ How to Make It Personal
1. We Talk — And I Listen
I don’t start with a script. I start with your memories. You tell me about their quirks, their values, the things they said that only your family would understand. Those stories
become the heart of the ceremony.
2. I Write Every Word for Them
There are no templates—only truth. Everything I say is written with care, from scratch, for this one person. That’s how it should be.
3. We Weave In What Matters
A favorite poem. A family tradition. A gesture that held meaning. Whether it’s lighting a candle or playing their favorite Springsteen track, the details matter.
4. I Handle the Flow So You Can Be Present
Grief is heavy. You shouldn’t have to worry about who’s speaking next or how long something takes. I coordinate the entire ceremony, so you can just show up, breathe, and be with your people.
🌈 A Ceremony That Reflects Them — Not Just Tradition
Some families I serve are spiritual. Others aren’t. Some follow cultural traditions.
Others want something entirely new.
There’s no one right way to say goodbye. But there is a way that will feel right to you.
Whether it’s in your backyard, by the ocean, in a funeral home, or on Zoom—I’ll help you build a moment that feels real, grounded, and unforgettable.
💬 Let’s Create Something That Feels True
If you’re holding onto love, and not sure how to let go, I’ll help you say goodbye in a way that reflects everything they were—and everything they meant to you.
You don’t have to settle for generic. Let’s make it personal.

Personalized ceremonies allow space for:
- Real stories—funny, loving, even messy ones
- Music they actually loved (not what 'should' be played)
- Rituals that reflect who they were, not just where they were from
- Words spoken by those who knew them best
