Welcome
Hello, my name is Carol Owen, I am a trained and certified Funeral Celebrant and a member of the Fellowship of Professional Celebrants. I work in Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole, and surrounding areas but can travel wherever required.
If you are exploring my page, then this is a time of sadness and difficulty for you and your family. I am here to help you; navigate you through the process and offer you choice and together we can plan and deliver a beautiful farewell to your loved one.
As an independent celebrant the service can be religious or non-religious, so we can include a hymn or a prayer or not. We will look at music, poems, readings, or anything of your choice. You may wish to ask family and friends if they would like to be part of the ceremony with personal tributes or readings. You may choose to write you own eulogy or I could do this for you.
The service created will be an individual and meaningful ceremony for your loved one which is based on their and your personal wishes. How will we do this? I will support and guide you, learn about your loved one, listen to your memories, learn about their life, and I will produce a ceremony which is bespoke to them and your family.
Over the years I have worked in various fields and have gained a lot of experience. I work as a wedding registrar and understand the importance of listening, so together we can create a unique service which reflects the life and character of the person you have lost.
