The question is: Can I hold a “Celebration of Life” instead of a traditional funeral?
Yes, as long as there are no legal restrictions you can personalize a funeral in any way you feel. I have done many personalized services and believe that it is a great tribute to the deceased to try and represent their life by putting together a remembrance that reflects them and their beliefs.
Some examples of a personalized service include, but are certainly not limited to: Champagne Toast, Valet Parking, Dove Release, Pets allowed, Favorite items of deceased (Motorcycle, Car, Sports Memorabilia, etc.) at the event.
A Funeral Planner easily can, and often likes to, adapt to be more of a “Celebration of Life” Planner.
