A difficult time in your life should not come with the added stress of attempting to create a memorial service slideshow on your own. Below, we are detailing the importance of a memorial service slideshow, along with our done-for-you process to assist and support you during this distressing time.
Why Create a Memorial Service Slideshow?
During difficult times, recalling fond events and experiences is a way to pull us through our grief. It allows us instead to come together and turn to the person beside us and say, ‘That was such a fun time, I’ll never forget it. ’ A memorial service slideshow is a way to evoke the emotions we felt when we look back on those moments. Which, in turn, brings us closer to those we were lucky enough to share our experiences with. A way for us to connect in love and create light that erupts through our grief.
Alternatively, memorial service slideshows are also for those who are not able to attend a celebration of life in person. Unfortunately, many of us experienced this during the pandemic when we were unable to say goodbye to those we love through our presence. However, there are a great many reasons why distance can keep us from being there when we most need to be. While a multitude of streaming services have allowed us to mimic the same experience, a memorial service slideshow is, in contrast, vastly personal regarding the ones we’ve loved and lost.
Lastly, a memorial service slideshow is ours to hold on to for as long as we need it. Grief has a funny way of reentering our lives. Holidays, birthdays, and cherished celebrations mark our calendars, and year after year, we feel the pangs of their loss again when those dates reappear. During those times, a memorial service slideshow can serve as a welcome reminder that our memories are ours to hold in our hearts whenever we need them to comfort us.
Memorial Service Video Tribute
As I’ve referenced, a memorial service video tribute is so much more than just a collection of photos. It’s a way to honor and remember a cherished life. However, sorting through years of photos in an attempt to put together a memorial service video tribute ahead of the memorial can quickly become a disheartening situation. Our process is easy. Send us the photos you have, and we will take care of everything else. We will sort, scan, edit, and curate a refined tribute video (of 5-12 minutes) that reflects the story of your loved one’s life.
What Should We Include?
It may be tough to easily recall thoughtful items to hand off to us for a memorial service slideshow. However, there are plenty of components that can be gathered for us to create a beautifully thoughtful tribute for your loved one. Below are a few items to consider:
- Stories: recorded by us or otherwise pre-recorded
- Cards & letters
- Poems, quotes, verses
- Voicemails
- Clippings & memorabilia
- Photos of places, people, and pets
Can We Include Music as Well?
Yes, I can add music to your memorial service slideshow. However, any music that we use must be professionally licensed. If you have a specific song in mind, please let us know, and we will find a find a licensed version or offer you an alternative.
How Long Will It Take To Receive My Memorial Service Slideshow?
We understand that you have a very specific timeline by which you will need your slideshow, and we will work closely with you to adhere to delivery. However, if you find yourself in a crunch, we do offer rush delivery. Once prepared, you will receive a digital version of your slideshow.
