A non religious celebration of a life, designed entirely around your family's wishes. Arranged end to end by a team that has guided Singapore families for 65 years.
A secular wake gives families time for personal tributes, readings and shared memories. If you prefer a farewell without a wake, consider direct cremation. See the separate direct cremation package.
A free thinker, or secular, funeral follows no religious rites. Instead it is a personal celebration of a life, shaped entirely by the family. It can include eulogies, favourite music, photo and video tributes, and any tone the family wants, from solemn to uplifting. The setup, timing and length are flexible, and you may choose burial or cremation as you prefer. We help you design every detail so the farewell truly reflects the person.
Compare the two wake durations and check which items are included.
The listed items are included unless marked optional. Confirm any separate venue, programme or burial costs in your quote.
Families often feel calmer once they can see the whole journey laid out. Here is the usual sequence.
We arrange collection after certification and any required release clearance. The family decides on the length of the wake, the venue and the shape of the farewell.
The body is cleansed, dressed and placed in the casket, set at the wake with a portrait, flowers and the personal touches your family chooses.
Before booking, confirm who will speak, which readings and music you want, how much time the venue allows, and who will bring and play any photos, slides or audio.
Over the days the wake runs, family and friends gather to share memories, view the tributes and pay their respects in a setting that reflects the person.
Agree the time and location for the closing tribute, then confirm arrangements for burial or cremation. If you choose cremation, discuss who will collect the ashes and whether you want separate help with their placement.
There are no fixed rites to follow. Dress respectfully, offer condolences quietly, and follow the family's lead. Your warm, calm presence is what matters most.
A simple, personal farewell, free of religious rites and built entirely around your family's wishes.
