Death is a delicate topic, but understanding the behind-the-scenes efforts can offer solace. In Singapore, where traditions meet modernity, preparing a funeral is both an art and a meticulous process. Here's an insider's look at funeral services prepared in Singapore with the help of The Life Celebrant. What is Soft-Embalming?Traditional embalming involves a high concentration of formaldehyde, which can harden and dehydrate the body, making it more challenging to clean, dress, and prepare for viewing. Additionally, the strong chemical odor of formaldehyde can be overwhelming. Soft-Embalming, on the other hand, is a gentler preservation technique that maintains the natural look and feel of the body without the harsh effects of traditional embalming. This method allows for a more intimate and meaningful farewell, enabling families to participate in the Showers of Love ceremony—a family-assisted cleansing, dressing, and makeup ritual that honors their loved one with dignity and care. Dressing the Deceased: A Tribute to Loved Ones "How to dress the deceased for a funeral?" This is a common query, especially for those who wish to honour their loved ones. At The Life Celebrant (TLC), we understand that dressing your loved one is a final act of love. Our parents dressed us when we first came into this world; it is only right that we dress them for their final journey. Decedent Care: Attention to Detail Decedent care involves going the extra mile to attend to details such as hairstyle and personal preferences. We do our best to retain the visual memory of your loved one, ensuring they look their best for the final goodbye. Comprehensive Funeral Planning: From Wake to Resting PlaceThere are numerous things to prepare—booking the wake venue, arranging food and beverages, and coordinating the final resting place. At The Life Celebrant, we act as your concierge, managing all these essentials so you can focus on your emotions and other important matters. The Showers of Love CeremonyAt The Life Celebrant (TLC), we are proud to be the leading provider of the Showers of Love Ceremony, an exclusive and deeply personal funeral ritual in Singapore. This intimate farewell experience takes place at the SOL Sanctuary, where family members come together to participate in the bathing, dressing, and final preparation of their loved one. More than just a ritual, the Showers of Love Ceremony, is a heartfelt act of love and service, allowing families to express their care one last time and find comfort, connection, and closure in the process. Setting Up the Funeral Wake VenueWhether you choose a void deck or a dedicated wake hall, the setup is crucial. The funeral wake is a time for family and friends to come together to pay their respects. At TLC, we ensure the venue is set up beautifully and respectfully, accommodating the needs of the family. Conducting Prayers and Ceremonies Different families have different traditions. At TLC, we personalise the ceremonies to honour the deceased's faith and traditions, making it a meaningful experience for everyone.
