Funerals in Northern Cyprus
Respectful and meaningful ceremonies created to honour life, memories, and loved ones with dignity and compassion.
No matter your beliefs – (or even if you have none) – I am here to work with you to create a ceremony that truly honors and says goodbye to your loved one in the way you want. It may be a burial, a funeral, a celebration of life, or a Memorial service.
I understand that every individual is unique. Therefore, I am dedicated to creating a ceremony that reflects the life and legacy of your loved one. I’ll do this in a way that feels personal and meaningful. By meeting with you and listening to your stories, I learn about the deceased’s passions, values, and achievements. Then I write a tribute that truly honours their memory.

Planning A Funeral or Celebration Of Life Ceremony in Cyprus | Northern Cyprus
Cyprus enjoys a warm, sun-drenched climate, where farewells are often heartfelt yet swift—typically taking place within 2 to 7 days. With no cremation facilities currently available, every ceremony is a sincere burial, usually held close to the community where your loved one lived and was cherished.
Planning a funeral or life celebration far from home can feel like navigating unfamiliar terrain, filled with customs and procedures that may be unknown to you. That’s where I come in—to be your trusted guide, lighting the way, connecting you with local support, cemeteries, and transforming a daunting process into a seamless, comforting farewell.

Memorial Services.
Memorials can be held anywhere and are usually at a later date when your family and friends can travel. Memorial Services provide a meaningful way to remember and pay tribute to a loved one after they have passed.
Unlike traditional funerals, memorial services can be held at any time after the burial or cremation.
This therefore allows for a more flexible and personalised approach. When someone has passed away in another country, a Memorial service is a perfect way to gather people together to remember them.
As your celebrant, I am committed to crafting a memorial service that reflects the values, beliefs, and wishes of your loved one. It is an opportunity for family and friends to come together in remembrance.
Repatriations
I can put you in touch with repatriation services to ensure the entire process is as smooth and stress-free as possible. Please contact me directly for assistance.
Additional Help and Support
I have connections with various charities and organizations that can offer support during this difficult and emotional time. Additionally, I can arrange live streaming for ceremonies, allowing all your loved ones to join the farewell—no matter where they are in the world. With a diverse and eclectic taste in music, I will assist you in choosing meaningful songs that reflect your loved one’s life, passions, and spirit, finding pieces that truly resonate with the ceremony and your hearts.
