Elevate Your Celebration with Optional Extras
Some living wakes are more formal with speeches and shared stories by invited family and friends.
Having these amenities can enhance the ceremony and help create a meaningful and personalised experience for everyone involved. If you choose to include speeches and a photo slideshow, these elements can contribute to a more reflective and celebratory atmosphere, allowing attendees to remember and celebrate your extraordinary life.

Experience the convenience of our diverse beverage packages, designed to cater to your unique event needs.

In the sombre context of an end of life celebration, we understand the importance of creating an atmosphere of solace and remembrance. 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’ for your friends and family.
These items need not be extravagant; a simple flower, a potted plant, a stubbie cooler, or a pen – whatever holds special significance to you, can serve as a meaningful tribute. Consider including your favourite drink or tea, providing guests with the opportunity to raise a heartfelt toast in your 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 commemoration.
Let Happy Endings End of Life Celebrations assist you in managing the process of organising your Will, Advanced Health Directives, Enduring Power of Attorney, and end of life celebration plan. Providing these documents is a significant gift to your loved ones, alleviating the uncertainty and stress of planning during the difficult period of grieving your loss. Allow us to support you in getting everything in order.
Whether it’s the strumming of a guitar, a playlist of meaningful songs, or sounds that hold sentimental value, music can enhance the overall atmosphere and contribute to a positive and comforting environment for those in attendance. We have an array of talented musicians ready to make your living wake memorable.
In the sombre context we recognise the significance of crafting an atmosphere of warmth and remembrance. From incorporating your favourite colours to showcasing cherished items, we can skilfully theme the event to reflect your 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. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that every detail contributes to a heartfelt and personalised experience.
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. If you would like to engage a professional photographer for part or all of your living wake, we can arrange this.
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, giving you something to reflect on, after your living wake.
