Ceremonies of loss and grief

“When you’re sad, don’t try to hold it in. It’s okay to cry a lot....So don’t ever try and hide from the sadness. When it comes, cry it out. It’s better to keep moving forward with that sadness; that’s what it means to live.”
— More Days at the Morisaki Bookshop by Satoshi Yagisawa

Empathy, understanding and a loving regard for people at every stage of their lives is at the heart of celebrancy and at the heart of what I offer. Deep listening combined with kindness and with empathy creates a place of safety where you are encouraged to come as you are, be yourself and get the ceremony you need.

I offer full funeral services (including burials, woodland burials and scattering or interment of ashes) as well as memorial services and Celebrations of Life, and living funerals and my basic fee is £230. A simple souvenir script will be created and posted to you after the ceremony.

I also offer spiritual, nature based or pagan ceremonies, please see the next page for more details.

I offer a free and no obligation twenty minute enquiry call before a first meeting. You can ask me any questions and tell me a bit about what you are looking for and then we can decide if I am the right celebrant for you. My email address is merielwhale@protonmail.com.
