Meet Matt

Funeral Director & Celebrant – Sydney

Hi, I’m Matt. After 20 years in finance, the loss of a dear friend changed everything. I realised I wanted to do work that truly mattered – work that supported people through one of life’s hardest moments and honoured each life in a personal, authentic way.

I left the corporate world and retrained as a funeral director and celebrant in Sydney. Today I work closely with families to create farewells that feel genuine, warm, and true to the person being remembered.

I believe a funeral doesn’t have to be gloomy to be meaningful. It can be a space for comfort, connection, and even moments of lightness – the stories, the music, the details that remind us of who someone truly was.

If you need guidance or would simply like to talk things through, I’m always here.

Clear & transparent pricing

We believe families should have clarity around funeral costs. Below is a simple guide to our main service options.

Direct Cremation
A simple cremation without a ceremony
From $2,900

Includes transfer into care, all essential arrangements, and the return of your loved one’s ashes.

Simple Farewell
Bridging the gap between direct cremation and full service funeral
From $6,500

For families wanting something informal. A family-led gathering with your loved one present*

Full Service Funeral
A personalised service with a ceremony, followed by cremation or burial
From $8,800

Includes service coordination, venue, celebrant and all essential arrangements**

Every service is personalised, so final costs may vary depending on venue and individual choices. We are always happy to provide a no obligation quote.

*If you’re considering a Simple Farewell, it’s worth checking with your chosen venue that they’re comfortable having a coffin present. Most are happy to accommodate this, and we can help guide you through the conversation.

**Burial plot and interment fees are not included and paid directly to the cemetery.
