Losing the person you love is heartbreaking. Planning a funeral or memorial can feel overwhelming.
I can support and guide you every step of the way through this and together we can create a beautiful celebration of their life.
Sharing their character, their stories, your memories with family and friends.
As sad as this day will be, I know I am able to create with you a ceremony which is handmade and personal to your loved one and their life.
Interment of ashes is a time to say a final goodbye and this can include reflection, readings and poems.
This happens following a cremation when you may choose at a later date to scatter or bury the ashes of your loved one. I can help you with the planning of this when you feel the time is right for you.
Please contact me to arrange a meeting.
Thank you so much for yesterday Stella. There are no words that can really thank you enough for the care that you gave to giving such a wonderful service for our beautiful boy Ben.
You have been so compassionate and understanding, while also being professional.
So many people commented to me about how well you delivered the service, particularly when reading our previous memories.
What a beautiful service. Your voice puts everyone at ease.
Such a lovely personal send off for him, he would have been quite chuffed with it all.
Thank you so very much for today, you were fabulous. Everyone commented on how great you were.
Everything went perfectly and everyone was so lovely. Thank you.
Thank you for doing the service today Stella. Feeling very exhausted but it was a nice day in the end.
We had a beautiful service for mum in the little village hall. We organised the service ourselves, filled the hall with flowers, covered the eco cardboard coffin with dried pressed flowers and with the help of the wonderful Stella Newman and woodland wishes we had the most precious time, remembering, singing, connecting with old friends.
We all then walked behind the hearse down to the church where we laid her to rest.
The room was filled with the most beautiful energy and love. Thank you.
Enormous thanks to Stella for leading the ceremony so beautifully.
