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
I’m Matt Morgan, a Sydney-based funeral director and celebrant. I want to redefine how to say goodbye to your loved one.
I worked in financial services for over 20 years until the loss of a dear friend inspired me to explore a more fulfilling path.
I am passionate about helping others find comfort and meaning during difficult times. By offering personalised, heartfelt farewells, my aim is to not only change the way funerals are done, but also enrich lives in a profound and lasting way.
How funerals chose me:
a fork in the road
After losing my friend, I longed to connect with people in a more meaningful way. The corporate world was no longer for me, but what the next move would be was unclear. I wrote a eulogy for my friend’s memorial service which transported me into another realm of reflection, a profound place where I felt a sense of belonging.
A few months later, my job came to an end, and I saw it as the perfect opportunity for a fresh start. I enrolled in a course to become a funeral celebrant, and before I knew it, I was partnering with Picaluna, who make beautiful funerals accessible to all. Now I want to bring heartfelt care and compassion into my work as a funeral director whilst also being able to hold the space for whatever may arise in the moment.
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.
