Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Rest in Peace message?
A short, heartfelt tribute written to the person who has passed away. It’s personal and concise—ideal for cards and flowers, framed photo keepsakes, memorial posts, or engraving on plaques and headstones.
How many words are included?
We offer three tiers: Essential (up to 80 words), Comprehensive (up to 120 words), and Legacy (up to 150 words). Each keeps the message clear, sincere, and comfortable to read.
Can my message be used on a headstone or memorial plaque?
Yes. We can shape wording appropriate for engraving—timeless, succinct, and respectful. If your mason has a character or line limit, tell us and we’ll tailor the text accordingly.
How does the process work?
Place your order → complete a short form with a few memories and the tone you’d like → we craft your message and deliver it ready to print, post, or engrave.
How quickly will I receive my message?
Most messages are delivered within 48 hours of receiving your details. If you have an urgent deadline (for example, a service date), let us know and we’ll prioritise where possible.
Can I request changes?
Yes. Each message includes one complimentary revision (light edits for tone, wording, or length). Additional revisions can be arranged if needed.
Can you match a particular tone or faith tradition?
Absolutely. We can write in a neutral, spiritual, or faith-specific tone and incorporate preferred references (e.g., scripture, readings, or cultural customs).
What format will I receive?
You’ll receive the message in your delivery email and as a clean, printable PDF. On request, we can provide a layout sized for cards, framed prints, or programme inserts.
Is a Rest in Peace message the same as a condolence?
No. A condolence is written to the bereaved, offering comfort. A Rest in Peace message is written to the person who has died—often a brief farewell or blessing.
What if a short message doesn’t feel like enough?
If you’d like something fuller, a short elegy poem can express love, sorrow, and remembrance more deeply. We can help through our personalised elegy poem service.
