End of Life Ceremonies

We offer ritual ideas and ceremony inspiration that can help mark the different stages of death and dying with intention.

The Moments Surrounding End of Life

There are so many moments surrounding the end of life that deserve to be acknowledged. Finding ways to acknowledge both the visible and invisible moments surrounding end of life is so important to our wellbeing. Ritual and ceremony can offer an opportunity to express what you’re carrying while also creating meaningful experiences with those that surround you.

Time of Death

★★★★★ 5/5

As funeral directors, we often struggle with finding ways to support families beyond our services with them. Be Ceremonial is an invaluable part of aftercare services for increasingly busy funeral providers, giving families the tools to honour their loss on their own terms and in their own time.
