A Personalised Funeral Song — Music for the Moment That Matters
When no song quite fits them, we write one that does. A bespoke piece of music about your loved one — their name, their life, the way they made others feel — ready to play at the service in HD audio.
From £9.99 · Ready in ~10 minutes · 2 song variations available on Premium
Some lives need a song written for them.
At most funerals, the music played belongs to someone else. A bespoke song — built around their name, the years they lived, the love they gave — can be the most powerful moment of the whole service. Family hear themselves in it. The room remembers the right person.
Their name. Their story.
We use their real name and the details of who they were — their work, their humour, their family role, the love they gave. The lyrics are about them, not a general tribute.
Two versions to choose from
Premium and VIP packages include two unique song variations — so you can pick the arrangement that feels right for the occasion.
Ready when you need it
Most funerals are arranged on a tight timeline. Your bespoke song is typically ready within 10 minutes of ordering, in your inbox to forward to the funeral director the same day.
Matched to who they were
Acoustic, country, folk, hymn-style, classical, jazz, gentle pop — whatever music belonged to them. We match the style to the person being remembered.
The right moment in the order of service
Families place the song at different moments in the service depending on what feels right. There's no wrong choice — here are the most common.
The entrance
As the coffin is brought in, a piece of music written for them sets the tone of the entire service — deeply personal, unmistakably theirs.
After the eulogy
The eulogy tells their story in words. A song that follows it carries that story forward in melody, and gives the room a moment to feel it together.
During the photo slideshow
If you're showing photographs of their life, a song written about that life is the natural soundtrack. Many families pair the song with a memory video of family photos.
The committal or exit
As the curtains close at the crematorium or the congregation leaves, a song that names them and remembers them is a final, fitting goodbye.
At the wake or celebration of life
Some families prefer the song at the gathering afterwards — played in a quieter moment, shared with everyone present, kept by the family forever.
Anniversary services or scattering
Many families return to the song each year on the anniversary, or play it at the scattering of ashes. It becomes the family's piece of music for the years ahead.
Three steps from their story to the service
1. Tell us about them
A short form — their name, the kind of person they were, the people who loved them, the moments that defined them. The more personal the detail, the more the song will feel like them.
2. Choose the style
Pick a genre that suits the person being remembered, choose male, female or duet vocals, and select the package — Standard MP3, Premium with 2 variations and lyrics sheet, or VIP with a memory video and instrumental.
3. Receive it the same day
Your bespoke song is delivered to your inbox, typically within 10 minutes. Download it, share it with the funeral director, and play it at the service. It's yours to keep forever.
How much does a personalised funeral song cost?
No subscriptions, no hidden fees. Pay once, keep your song forever. Far less than the bespoke services that take weeks.
Other personalised song services charge £25–£80+ and take days — or weeks — to deliver. We deliver the same day, from £9.99.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the song work on a venue sound system?
Yes. MP3 files play on any venue system without issue. If quality is a concern, any modern PA system handles 320kbps MP3 without compression artefacts.
When in the service is it usually played?
Most families play it during the photo slideshow, after the eulogy, or during the entrance or exit of the coffin. Some choose to play it at the wake or celebration of life rather than the service itself. There's no right answer — it's whichever moment feels most fitting.
How quickly can I get it? My service is in a few days.
Typically within 10 minutes of ordering. We understand most funeral songs are ordered against a tight timeline — your bespoke song will be in your inbox the same day, almost always within minutes.
Can I share the song file with the funeral director?
Yes. The song is yours to keep and share. Forward the email link or the MP3 file directly to the funeral director, celebrant, or venue technician.
How do I write about them so the song captures who they were?
Tell us their name, the role they played in your family, what made them laugh, the work that defined them, the love they gave. The more personal and specific the details, the more the song will feel like them. We turn your words into lyrics.
What genres or styles work for a funeral song?
Whichever genre suits the person being remembered. Acoustic, country, folk, classical, jazz, soul, gospel, hymn-style, gentle pop — we match the music to who they were. If they loved Frank Sinatra, we can write in that style. If they were a country fan, we lean that way.
Can I create a memory video to go with the song?
Yes. Our VIP package (£19.99) includes a memory video — upload up to 20 photos and we will pair them with the song into a video that can be played during the service slideshow or shared with family afterwards.
Is this the same as your memorial songs page?
The two pages are sister offerings. Memorial songs are framed around honouring a person's life as a private or family keepsake. Funeral songs are framed around playing music at the service itself. The product is the same bespoke song; only the framing differs. Use whichever page reflects what you're looking for.
A song that names them. A service that remembers them.
Tell us about your person. We do the rest. Ready in ~10 minutes.
