Pre-Recorded Speeches for Funerals

Funeral Tributes With Charlotte

A Gentle Way To Share Your Words When It Feels Too Hard To Speak

Speaking at a funeral can feel daunting at the best of times, and even more so when you are grieving.

 

You may want to share something heartfelt, but worry that emotions or nerves will get in the way.

A pre-recorded tribute allows you to say everything you wish, without the pressure of standing up to speak on the day. Your words will be heard clearly and beautifully, while you can remain seated and present in the moment.

What I Offer

I help you create and record a tribute in advance, in a relaxed and supportive setting. On the day of the funeral, when it’s time for your words to be shared, the celebrant simply presses play. Your family and friends will hear your message exactly as you intended, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing it has all been taken care of.

Most recordings are up to 4 minutes long, though this can be adjusted to suit what you’d like to say.

What You Can Record

The tribute is yours — it can be anything you feel is right:

  • A personal message or memory you’ve written

  • A favourite poem or reading

  • Words we craft together if you’re not sure where to begin.

 

You can arrive to me with a speech ready, with just a few ideas, or even with nothing at all — I’ll guide you through the process and help you shape something meaningful that feels true to you.

Once recorded, I’ll edit and prepare the piece, and if you wish, I can send it directly to the person leading the service, ready for the day.

Things I will not record

I will not record anything derogatory, feuds or swear words.

How it Works

 

  1. We meet in my home studio in Dronfield (tea, coffee and tissues always available).
