Essential Ceremonies looks forward to collaborating with you in identifying those elements of remembrance, celebration, and ritual that are authentic to your loved one as well as are nourishing for your family. It is our honor to work with you in crafting a personalized ceremony that captures the unmistakable essence of your loved one. As Certified Life-Cycle Celebrants, we are trained in the art of ceremony and ritual to best serve the unique needs of each situation.

The Scottish poet, William Campbell says that “To live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die.” A fitting tribute and affirmation of a person’s life can ensure continued life in the hearts of those who remain. The unique legacy of the individual as told through story, quotes, music, poetry, memories can serve as a source of inspiration and comfort for all in attendance for the days and years ahead.

We know firsthand how vital and sustaining a personal tribute and commemoration can be.  We are ordained ministers of a spiritual community that celebrates the sacred in all cultures and across all religions and that celebrates the mystery of being human. Thus, we honor all philosophies, beliefs and traditions--religious, spiritual, secular, inter-faith and multi-cultural. 

Along with our experience and talent, we bring our sincere desire to make sacred each passing, each life, each celebration and remembrance. 

Essential Ceremonies, LLC is located in Littleton, Colorado, and provides ceremonies along Colorado’s Front Range and by special arrangement, on the Western slope.
