Certified Celebrants

Certified Celebrants

Whether you choose burial or cremation, having a service to honor life, and a permanent place to visit remains, is an essential part of the healing process.

We’ll educate you on the traditional and nontraditional inclusions in these ceremonies—and help you design an observance that’s as unique as the life it’s about.

What is a Certified Celebrant?

In a broad sense, the term “celebrant” simply refers to one who celebrates anything. In the case of funeral planning, a celebrant is a trained individual who works with families to create a “custom-designed service” that is focused on the beliefs, lifestyles, and stories which tell who your loved one really was.

Something we are proud of...all of our Funeral Directors are certified Celebrants.

There are few decisions in life as personal as deciding where you wish to be permanently memorialized. After all, it is a decision that extends into the lifetimes of your children and grandchildren – where do you wish them to go to honor your memory and share their emotions?

How to Honor a Life

It’s about bringing those you love together, at a time of loss. It’s a natural thing to do, and over time, has become a socially-expected practice. More importantly, a funeral or memorial service, whether traditional, or contemporary, is the first step in healing.


You can have your service anywhere, and any way, you want. Your choices include the place of celebration, day of the week, and time of day; the musical selection, what prayers will be said or songs you’d like sung. We can arrange to have doves, butterflies, or balloons released at the close of the service. Keepsake gifts of wildflower seeds or a tree seedling can be given. We’re here to help you create the most memorable and meaningful service to honor your loved one.
