A funeral celebrant works with families to create meaningful, personalized ceremonies that honor a life and reflect its unique stories, values, and experiences. Celebrant services often include:
Meeting with family members to gather stories, memories, and personal anecdotes.
Guiding the creation of eulogies, readings, music choices, and rituals that make the ceremony unique.
Offering support for advance planning, helping individuals envision their own celebration of life.
Designing ceremonies for any size or style, from intimate gatherings to larger memorials.
A funeral celebrant can work independently to lead a celebration of life in any location of the family’s choosing, bringing complete flexibility to the service.
When working with a funeral home, a celebrant coordinates with the funeral director to ensure the service fits within the established schedule, timing, and logistical requirements. This includes adhering to time limits, graveside schedules, or other parameters set by the funeral home. While the celebrant brings personal attention, creativity, and guidance to the ceremony, they take direction on structure and timing from the funeral director.
Funeral celebrant services typically range from $600 to $1,000, depending on the scope and location of the service. Services honoring children are offered as a gift. Scattering ceremonies can also be designed for a fee, providing a fully prepared eulogy that the family can use to hold a private ceremony of their choosing. Preparing a eulogy in advance ensures that the most important memories are expressed and memorialized, even if no one else is available to speak.
