Celebrations of Life. Celebrancy services for funerals

I'm Craig Tyler. I'm an independent funeral celebrant and based in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, supporting bereaved families to create and deliver very personal and very meaningful funeral celebrations. 

I specialise in celebrancy services for funerals services which are rich in humour and passion, celebrating lives well lived, and making sure the stories, jokes, anecdotes and happy memories take centre stage with your loved one at their celebration of life service.

Family Testimonial - "Thank you Craig for performing the perfect service for our perfect Dad. Everyone said you gave a lovely service, spoken with true emotion and feeling"

If you are looking for the services of a celebrant, either to create a celebration of life service for you (if you are delivering it yourself) or you would like me to take the service please ask your funeral director to contact me, or use the contact form below to get in touch direct.

Family testimonial - "Everyone at the service said it was brilliant and the best service they had ever been to. We heard everything you said very clearly and you were so respectfully funny"

I've 20 years experience in speech writing and public speaking and come from 5 generations of a family that has been dedicated to supporting the bereaved for 150 years

Family testimonial - "We would like to commend you on what a wonderful job you have done. To have captured my dad so perfectly is incredible. We are so grateful to you for doing my father justice".

Have you ever wondered what will be said about you at your funeral? Why not answer that question now.

I offer a “living memories” service where I will support you and your family to write your own funeral service capturing your desires, your music choices, your poems, hymns and readings, your stories, and most importantly your wishes.

It's so much easier to gather the best information about someone's life whilst we are still lucky enough to have you with us. 

There are no rules to what your celebration can include. Be creative, be ingenious, be yourself.

 If you would like me to help you craft your funeral service plans then do get in touch.

Have you been asked to deliver a eulogy or part of a service at the funeral of a loved one but feel way outside your comfort zone? 

DON'T PANIC! 

I can help turn your dread into confidence, your ideas into stories, and ensure you deliver a speech which your family and loved one would be proud of.

Whether it's a reassuring chat you need, or assistance scripting your eulogy for you to deliver, just get in touch.

Send off your loved pet in style with a bespoke service of celebration, either written (or if you are in the South Yorkshire area) written and delivered by me, with all the same humour, emotion and meaningfulness as any non-pet service.
