Our Story
Angjolie Mei established TLC in 2015, guided by the profound understanding that saying goodbye should be as unique and meaningful as the life being celebrated. We believe that every family deserves tender, loving care during their most vulnerable moments — care that honours both the person who has passed and those who remain, whilst creating space for authentic grief and genuine healing.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Life Celebrant
The Life Celebrant was founded in 2015 by Angjolie Mei, with a vision to redefine how Singapore approaches farewell — moving away from purely transactional arrangements towards deeply personal, meaningful celebrations of life. Since then, TLC has grown into one of Singapore's most trusted funeral and legacy planning providers, serving families across all faiths and backgrounds.
A Life Celebrant is someone who celebrates life — not just marks the end of it. The name reflects TLC's core belief that a funeral should be a true reflection of the person who lived, honouring their story, their values, and the relationships they built. Every service TLC arranges is guided by this philosophy.
TLC operates by five core values: Honour our Words — we make commitments we keep; Empathy — we listen with genuine compassion; Attention to Detail — nothing is overlooked; Respect — every person and tradition is treated with dignity; and Togetherness — we believe healing happens through connection and shared support.
Yes. Through The Life Celebrant, we support families from the moment of loss through to the funeral and beyond — including bereavement support and memorial services. Through The Life Legacy, our dedicated legacy planning arm, we also help families with will writing, LPA, ACP, estate management, and funeral pre-planning before loss occurs.
TLC includes a complimentary 30-day digital obituary in all funeral packages — a thoughtful, eco-conscious tribute that allows family and friends near and far to pay their respects and share memories without the environmental footprint of print. For families who wish to extend the announcement to Singapore newspapers, our team will liaise with the relevant publishers on your behalf. Obituaries can be placed in The Straits Times, The Sunday Times, Lianhe Zaobao, Lianhe Wanbao, Shin Min Daily News, Berita Harian, Berita Minggu, and Tamil Murasu.
