funeral celebrant in Tauranga
  • Saying goodbye to someone you love is undoubtedly one of life’s most profound challenges. The process of organising a funeral while still grappling with your loss can feel overwhelming. As a dedicated funeral celebrant, I am here to support you in crafting a truly personalised and fitting ceremony to ensure an authentic farewell. Together, we can explore your options and incorporate meaningful elements that honour your loved one and resonate with everyone involved.


  • The Importance of a Good Funeral

  • While death brings with it a wave of sadness, a thoughtfully planned funeral can provide comfort and be an essential step in the grieving journey. A "good" funeral allows you to say goodbye in a way that not only honours the life of the deceased but also celebrates their unique personality and values. I specialize in creating bespoke ceremonies tailored to reflect what you, the loved ones, find most fitting to honour the individual. Whether you want to focus on cherished memories, personal anecdotes, or significant achievements, I will work with you to ensure the service is a true reflection of your loved one.


  • Flexible Memorial Options

  • Today, many families are opting for direct cremation followed by a more relaxed memorial ceremony in locations that hold special meaning, such as their home, a garden, or even a shared space in a Rest Home or Retirement Village. I am more than happy to come to your preferred location, conducting a memorial that truly suits your needs and preferences. When it comes to content, there are virtually no restrictions. You can showcase your loved one’s favourite music, include heartfelt tributes, and incorporate items that symbolize their character and passions. Whether it’s a family photograph, a tool they used regularly, or a special memento, I’ll help you weave these elements into a meaningful narrative.


  • Ceremony Cost

  • My ceremony package is priced at $350.
  • Please note that additional travel charges may apply based on the location of the ceremony.
This includes:
  • An initial consultation meeting to discuss your needs and wishes.
  • Comprehensive ceremony planning to ensure every detail is addressed.​
  • Conducting the ceremony.​
  • A copy of the ceremony for you to keep as a cherished memento.

  • Your Journey

  • Whatever type of funeral or memorial you envision for your loved one, I am here to listen and guide you compassionately through the process. My goal is to help you create a ceremony that not only reflects the life and legacy of your loved one but also provides a space for healing and remembrance for you and your family.

  • Please don’t hesitate to reach out for a caring conversation about how we can work together to create a fitting farewell.
