About Caroline Whittle and her Funeral Celebrant Services
I am an experienced Civil Funeral Celebrant conducting burial, cremation and funeral memorial ceremonies throughout the West Midlands including Coventry, Birmingham, the Black Country, Shropshire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire and Staffordshire.
I provide tailored funeral services, both semi-religious and non-religious, and funeral ceremonies of a more spiritual nature with words in keeping with the beliefs and ideals of you, your family and your loved one. In this way we can create a truly personal occasion.
I strive to ensure that your needs are met, no matter how unique the ceremony, allowing your individuality to shine through. I believe that the funeral service - the speech, the music and the sense of family - belongs to and is made by you.
My wish is to provide a goodbye that truly reflects the life and character of your loved one. Endeavouring to fulfill your wishes wherever possible, I will work professionally and compassionately to achieve this on your behalf.
I am a certified funeral celebrant of the Fellowship of Professional Celebrants.
Funeral Services
When someone dies the grief can be immeasureable, and one of the most important concerns of the bereaved family is ensuring that the Funeral Service, whether cremation or burial, is as fitting a goodbye as possible.
As an experienced funeral celebrant I can help you to create a personal and inspiring Funeral Service in keeping with the beliefs of your loved one. It can be as formal or as celebratory as desired. My aim is to support you in the creation of your perfect goodbye so that one day, when the pain has softened, it is possible to look back and feel content with the Ceremony we pieced together with sensitivity and love.
I will visit you at home or at a location of your choosing and we will discuss your preferences, ideas and options for the Service. These often include details of the eulogy, music, hymns, order of service and any personal touches that you would like to weave throughout the proceedings.
I am very supportive of you taking an active role in the service and if you wish to share your own memories I'll be there to offer guidance at every step. I appreciate tradition yet encourage unique ideas and have conducted services that have ranged from very formal and conventional through to staged memorials in beautiful town halls, colourful and hawaiian themed farewells and goodbyes where the congregation have come forward to sign the coffin with a message of love. Families are often still quite unaware of the choices that are available to them but in this modern day there really is no reason for you to not have as much creative freedom as you desire.
After our meeting I will then liaise with your chosen Funeral Director and will be at hand for any questions you may have prior to the Service by email and telephone. If you'd like to see me again then you only need ask.
My duty is to ensure that your wishes are fulfilled wherever possible, and I will work professionally and compassionately to achieve this on your behalf.
