Funeral Celebrant

Creating Unique Celebrations for Unique Lives

Hello & Welcome

Hi, I’m Andrew Fairweather – a funeral celebrant based in the Anglia region with over 20 years experience of caring for the bereaved. I conduct services across most of Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex.

I create bespoke and meaningful ceremonies for funerals, memorials and ashes interments or scatterings. I am also happy to meet with people who wish to consider their own funeral in advance and help them with planning it.

Why choose a funeral celebrant?

A unique service tailored to you

The task of a funeral celebrant is to create and lead what is traditionally known as a funeral service. It could also be known as a celebration of life or memorial service.

An independent funeral celebrant is able to lead the service not based on their own beliefs, but completely led by the wishes and values of the deceased and those organising the funeral.

Working with me

My passion is to create unique services that reflect the life and principles of the individual who has died, while allowing you to celebrate that life and grieve your loss in your own way.

Each funeral is unique, so I take the time to sit with each family to tailor the service to their needs. Here’s a brief outline of how the process works.

Our first chat

We’ll start with a telephone call so I can answer your questions and find out your initial requirements for the funeral. Then we’ll arrange a suitable time for us to meet in person.

Our meeting

We’ll meet so I can hear all about the person whose life you are celebrating, listen to your wishes and get all the information I require in order to create a fully bespoke script.

The funeral

On the day I will lead the funeral service with care, warmth and respect. After the service you will receive an electronic copy of the script as well as a printed copy in a presentation folder.

A few kind words

“We would highly recommend you”

Thank you for all you have done for us to make things so much easier. From writing such a lovely script to the service yesterday. It summed Mum up and was her to a tea. Thanks for putting us at ease and we would highly recommend you to other people.

Ray Leeper, Norfolk

“It was perfect”

Thank you so much for yesterday, it was perfect. At a very difficult time, you made it all very easy and worry free which I will be forever grateful for. 

James Wilby, Norfolk

“Sincere, professional and understanding”

Thank you so very much, you truly are a very nice man, very sincere, very professional and very understanding to the family’s needs. It really was a beautiful service, everyone said so. You really helped to make a difficult day much more bearable.

Sue Adams, Suffolk

“Truly a beautiful service”

It was truly a beautiful service for our dad. You really did add attention to detail. The cricket theme tune in the background was also a great touch. Lots of people have messaged to say how lovely the service was, so thank you very much for all your time, effort and hard work for making it perfect.

Rhiannan Jefferies, Suffolk

“I am so grateful to you”

Feedback from everyone present confirmed how much it was appreciated and how so like her was the picture it portrayed. That was largely due to your personal presentation skills. I am so grateful to you.

Bob Collins, Norfolk

“You led the service beautifully”

You led the service beautifully and we had many comments from people who attended that thought the same. We were very pleased with how it all turned out and found it a sense of comfort at such a very sad time for us.

Chris Godbold, Suffolk

“A beautiful service”

It was a beautiful service and, although a very sad day for us all, it was also joyous remembering what a unique person my father was. Thank you so much for your personalised approach with stories about Dad, that you had picked up from our conversations. It was perfect!

Belinda G, Norfolk

“We are so grateful”

I want to thank you so very much for conducting the funeral so beautifully. Everything about it went well and it conveyed all of what people knew of her. We really are so grateful and appreciate all the time and effort that you put into the preparation.

Jan P, Norfolk

“Thank you for your compassion and empathy”

Thank you so much for the beautiful service you led for Dad. Everyone commented how lovely it was. Thank you for your compassion and empathy to our family at such a devastating time. Dad would have truly liked you as I’m sure you would have liked him.

Lisa W, Suffolk

“I felt that you must have known her”

Thank you again for delivering the service so well. We really wanted to get across the real essence and personality of Mum and the way you spoke, I felt that you must have known her… you made it all so personal, which is exactly what we wanted. I actually enjoyed it despite it being such a sad occasion for us.

Alison, Norfolk
