Sometimes referred to as a Memorial Service or Fabulous Farewell.
A Celebration of Life is designed to mark the passing of a loved one in a personalized meaningful way. A Celebration of Life honours an individual's life rather than their death. A Celebration of Life is a gathering that brings family, friends and colleagues together to celebrate, rejoice and acknowledge the person's legacy with unique, personal touches. It is an opportunity to celebrate a life in way that is a reflection on how a loved one has lived their life and tells their story.
A Celebration of Life is usually held apart from a traditional funeral service or religious ceremony; it is an option for families seeking an addition or alternative to a traditional farewell. It can be an intimate, quiet affair for family and friends or a large public gathering. Regardless of size, a Celebration of Life can be held weeks or even months after a loved one has passed.
A Celebration of Life also provides an opportunity for friends and families to come together to support the living, honour the life of the person they share a special bond with, socialize, mourn, and grow closer. When we experience the death of a loved one, gathering to share the loss can be an important part of the grieving process, it can also uplift the spirits of those who attend. In sharing our stories and personal moments it helps us reflect and move forward. A Celebration of Life can create new memories and provide strength that comforts and inspires all included.
