Our Ethos
At Idyllic Funerals, our aim is to create beautiful funerals that pay tribute to each individual’s unique life.
Every farewell should reflect the individual it celebrates. We tailor every aspect of the service to honour your special person.
We strive to shift the traditional funeral experience into one that offers comfort and inspiration, allowing family and friends to leave with cherished memories and a renewed sense of connection.
By focusing on these values, we redefine farewells as heartfelt celebrations of life.
About Matt
Hi, I’m Matt. After 20 years in the finance industry, I experienced the heartbreaking loss of a dear friend, and everything shifted. I realised I wanted to do work that truly mattered. That helped people. That honoured lives.
So I left the corporate world behind and became a funeral director and celebrant. These days, I help families say goodbye with grace, warmth, and yes, a touch of lightness. I believe funerals don’t have to be gloomy to be meaningful. They can be uplifting, personal, even beautiful.
At Idyllic Funerals, I blend practical know-how with heartfelt care, taking the stress off your shoulders while creating a service that genuinely reflects your loved one. If that sounds like what you’re after, let’s talk. I offer a free 15-minute planning consultation to help you get started.
We work in partnership with Picaluna Beautiful Funerals. Picaluna is a community of like-minded people, helping families to create more authentic, compassionate and affordable cremations, burials and memorials.
Picaluna felt that there was a much better way to conduct funerals, and are changing the way funerals are done for the better. This change is underpinned by their core purpose to help communities to honour, mourn, celebrate, heal and rejuvenate. Picaluna also chooses to donate 5% of our profit to your choice from one of our Picaluna Charity partners.
The Picaluna partnership supports us in the logistics required to arrange and conduct a funeral; including transfers, registering the death with Births, Deaths & Marriages, access to a vast range of suppliers, mortuary care, and invoicing. This allows us to spend more time with you, crafting and delivering a personalised ceremony, authentic to the one you loved.
