Elevate Your Celebration with Optional Extras
Some end of life celebrations are more formal with speeches and eulogies by invited family and friends. If families choose to include speeches and a photo slideshow, these elements can contribute to a more reflective and celebratory atmosphere, allowing attendees to remember and honour the life of the person who has passed away.
Experience the convenience of our diverse beverage packages, designed to cater to your unique event needs. Whether you prefer the flexibility of hourly packages or the precision of consumption-based options, we have you covered. Elevate the ambiance of your gathering by setting up a personalised bar tab for your guests, allowing them to savour the Wake at their own pace.
To ensure a heartfelt and organised commemoration, consider engaging a professional celebrant to skilfully manage the proceedings at the wake. A celebrant brings a compassionate and experienced touch to the event, guiding the flow of the ceremony with grace and sensitivity. Entrust them with the responsibility of managing speeches, allowing the mourners to express their thoughts and memories seamlessly.
All packages are based on minimum number at each venue. If you have a specific number of extra guests in mind, let us know and we will provide the per person cost for additional guests. This way, you can tailor the package to suit your end of life celebration and budget.
Allow us to arrange beautiful flowers at our reduced rates for the day of the end of life celebration. Whether delicately placed on tables or positioned near the lectern, these flowers serve as a poignant symbol of beauty amid moments of reflection. Our thoughtfully arranged floral offerings aim to bring a sense of comfort and grace to the space, offering a visual tribute to the life being remembered during this time of mourning.
Our favourite part of end of life celebration planning is assembling the ‘Forget Me Not Gifts’ gifts for friends and family of the loved one.
These items need not be extravagant; a simple flower, a potted plant, a stubbie cooler, or a pen – whatever holds special significance to your loved one – can serve as a meaningful tribute. Consider including your loved one’s favourite beverage or tea, providing guests with the opportunity to raise a heartfelt toast in their memory from the comfort of their homes. Or gifting a cherished photo with an expression of gratitude to family and friends for being a part of today’s celebration. We can find the perfect gift for you and have them ready to share with your family and friends.
The suggestion of having gentle music in the background, either from an acoustic guitarist or playing the favourite sounds of your loved one, is a wonderful and thoughtful addition to an end of life celebration. Whether it’s the strumming of a guitar, a playlist of meaningful songs that hold sentimental value, music can enhance the overall atmosphere and contribute to a positive and comforting environment.
During this difficult time, we understand the emotional weight of notifying the public about the passing of a loved one. Allow us to alleviate some of your burdens by taking care of the details involved in placing the notice in the newspaper. Our compassionate team is dedicated to ensuring that the announcement reflects the life and legacy of your loved one, with the utmost respect and consideration for your family’s wishes.
Let us arrange printing and display of a beautiful portrait accompanied by a floral arrangement of your loved one. We can incorporate their favourite colours or showcase cherished items to reflect their individuality. Whether it’s through personalised decorations, themed displays, or thoughtful touches throughout the venue, our aim is to create a meaningful and respectful tribute.
Photographs can serve as cherished mementos for the family and friends, documenting the moments of connection, laughter, and shared stories. They also offer a way to share the celebration with those who may not have been able to attend in person, extending the reach of the commemoration.
Create a heartfelt and enduring memorial by arranging a signing book, a keepsake box, cards for guests to pen down stories, and even rocks for them to sign, leaving a tangible mark of their presence. The possibilities extend to memorial books and photos, offering a diverse range of options to commemorate the occasion. These thoughtful elements not only enrich the celebration but also provide comfort in the aftermath of the festivities, serving as a tangible collection of shared memories and sentiments.
