A Farewell That Truly Honours Them

Meaningful goodbyes

Saying goodbye to someone you love is one of life's hardest moments. It deserves to be done well.

I'm Charlotte — a funeral celebrant based in Warwickshire, covering Warwickshire and the Cotswolds. I create funeral ceremonies and celebrations of life that are very personal, dignified and deeply human. Not cold. Not clichéd. Not rushed.

Funerals from £250

What's Included

  • A face-to-face meeting with your family — at your home or wherever suits you, with video call available if distance is a factor

  • A genuine conversation about your person: who they were, how they lived, what mattered to them

  • Liaison with your funeral director to create the order of service

  • Delivery of a fully bespoke script at least 48 hours before the ceremony, with time for amendments

  • Full ceremony delivery on the day, with calm and composed presence

  • A follow-up call to check in on you afterwards

  • A keepsake copy of the script — printed and digital

Payment is made after the ceremony, usually via your funeral director.

Memorial Services are available from £400, including venue liaison, speaker coordination and full ceremony management.

The Ceremonies I Conduct

  • Funerals at Crematoriums

    Working with crematoria across Warwickshire, I bring warmth and compassion without over sentimentality, creating services that are personal and meaningful within the time given, in an environment which can often feel alien.

  • Burials & Natural Burials

    I love a natural burial. My local natural burial ground is a nature reserve — extraordinarily beautiful and peaceful. I've also supported families who chose a private home burial, and I consider it a privilege to have been part of those deeply personal ceremonies.

  • Celebrations of Life

    Held in a venue that you have chosen, perhaps with special meaning for you or your loved one — a favourite pub, a garden, a village hall, anywhere that speaks of them. A celebration of life is a chance to honour the whole person, with laughter and stories alongside the grief.

  • Memorial Services

    For when the immediate funeral has passed but you want a later, planned gathering for friends and family to come together and remember. I coordinate everything, leaving you free to simply be present.

Why Families Choose Me

I come to funeral work with something that can't be taught: I know what it is to stand on the edge of losing someone. I know how much courage it takes just to sit down and begin telling someone’s story, and it shapes every conversation I have and every word I write.

I always go the extra mile. I meet families face to face where I can. It’s important to me to check in afterwards. I hold space for whatever the family needs — and I never impose a template on someone's story.

Funeral FAQs

How do I get in touch with you for a funeral?

You can contact me directly or you may be referred through your funeral director — I work with many directors across Warwickshire and the Cotswolds. Please call or email and I'll respond as quickly as possible.
