Memorial Books
These beautiful, scenic memorial books provide an elegant way to collect names and special memories from those attending the funeral service. You can select from one of our collections or ask your Compassionate Funerals funeral director about customising the cover to suit your loved one.
Memorial Book Pricing & Guidance
We understand that every family’s needs and budget are unique, and we are committed to providing transparent guidance to help you make an informed decision.
The cost of a memorial book is influenced by several factors, including the cover design chosen, the level of personalisation, and whether additional copies are required for family members. Some of our packages include a memorial book as standard, and our team can talk you through what is included and what can be added.
If you have questions about pricing or would like to discuss the options that best suit your budget, please reach out to our caring team. We are here to listen, support, and provide the clarity you need during this time.
Our Memorial Book Options
At Compassionate Funerals, our memorial books are available in a range of beautiful cover designs, from scenic landscapes to botanicals, so families can find something that feels true to their loved one’s spirit. Each book is crafted with care and provides an elegant way to gather the names and memories of those who attend the service.
You can select from our collection or speak with your funeral director about customising the cover to better reflect your loved one. Our team can also incorporate photographs from the day, signatures from those who attended, messages of condolence, and photos of flowers and special tributes — creating a complete record of a day that often passes more quickly than anyone expects.
How to Choose the Right Memorial Book
Choosing a memorial book is a gentle decision, and there is no single right answer. The most important thing is that it feels like the person being remembered and like something the family will genuinely treasure.
A few things worth thinking through as you decide:
Think about who they were. Did your loved one have a connection to the coast, the bush, or the garden? Was their style classic and understated, or warm and botanical? The cover of the memorial book does not need to be literal, but it can carry something of them in its feeling.
Think about who will keep it. The memorial book will most likely sit with the immediate family for years to come. Choosing something that feels beautiful and well-made matters, because it will be opened again and again in the months and years that follow.
Consider whether multiple family members might want a copy. It is common for siblings or close relatives to each want their own memorial book once they see the finished product. Additional copies can be ordered at any time, including after the service.
Don’t feel you need to decide alone. Our team at Compassionate Funerals is here to guide you through the options at whatever pace suits your family. We can show you examples, talk through what is possible, and help you find something that feels right without adding pressure to an already full time.
If you would like to discuss options before making any decisions, please reach out to our team. We are here to listen and to help.
Memorial Books - Frequently Asked Questions
A memorial book is a special keepsake that captures heartfelt messages and treasured memories from friends and family during a funeral service. It provides a lasting tribute to the departed and enables the family to cherish these moments forever.
Our range offers various designs and styles to suit different tastes and preferences. Consider the personality and the wishes of your loved one to select a book that best represents their life and legacy.
Our memory books are completely personalised. We include photos from the photo tribute, the signatures of the guests, photos of the flowers, speakers and any special items on the day of the service, the order of service booklet and any messages of condolences we receive.
Memorial books are typically used during the funeral service, but they can also be set up during viewings or wakes. Guests are encouraged to sign, share memories, and offer condolences, which can be revisited by family and friends.
You can write messages of love, personal memories, or words of comfort. The length is up to you – whether it’s a simple note or a detailed memory, every sentiment is valued.
Yes, you can order our memory books even if you’re not using our funeral services. We welcome inquiries from all families looking to honour their loved ones with a beautiful and meaningful keepsake.
Absolutely. Quite often families will purchase a memory book for each sibling. You can also order copies after the original has been handed to the family. This is quite often the case when family members see the memory book complete; they want their own copy and choose their own cover that they like. These can be purchased at any time following the service.
