You don’t need to prepare for our meeting. As your funeral celebrant, I’ll gently guide our conversation, and we can take things as they come.
But if you’d like some time to think beforehand, this guide introduces some of the things we may talk about as we begin shaping the ceremony together.
Before our meeting
The guide may help you think about:
- the person we’ll be remembering;
- memories and stories you might want to share;
- music, readings and contributions;
- the choices available for the ceremony;
- anything you’d particularly like included — or left out.
It isn’t a questionnaire, and there’s nothing you need to complete. Use as much or as little of it as feels helpful.
You can read the guide below or download a copy to keep.
