READINGS - VERSES - MUSIC

  Including a reading in the ceremony is a beautiful way to express our feelings, evoke a memory and offer comfort to those who are grieving. 


It’s also a nice way to involve other family members or friends who may wish to contribute to the ceremony. 


Deciding on the right reading can be overwhelming, but at the end of the day, it really just comes down to how that reading made you feel. 


Over the years I have collected many different verses, prayers and poems which you will find below for you to download. 


Feel free to choose one of these, modify them, or you may provide your own reading, or write your own poem or prayer if you prefer. 


You may have your own choice of music.


It is all your choice.

  Often people don’t want to share their memories, as they are worried they will get too emotional, however they still feel like they would like to contribute to the ceremony in some way. Asking them to choose and read a poem or verse can be a great way to do this. Readings, Verses & Poems can be used at any point throughout the ceremony and I would usually wait until I see what the family have chosen before I decide where we will place it in the order of ceremony.

  “Music is a language that doesn’t speak in particular words. It speaks in emotions, and if it’s in the bones, it’s in the bones.” – Keith Richards.


Music can be, one of the most important and beautiful parts of the whole ceremony. When you leave that ceremony, you may not remember everything that was said, but you will remember the music that was played and the emotion that you felt when listening to the music.
