Bring everyone to the committal, wherever they are
The graveside is often the quietest and most emotional moment of the day, when family gather close to say their final words. For those who can’t travel, being unable to stand there with everyone else is one of the hardest parts of missing a funeral. Peter can live stream the burial or interment so they can be present in that moment, wherever they are. He keeps a gentle, respectful distance, so the focus stays on your loved one and the people around them.
Outdoors, without the fuss
Cemeteries, churchyards and burial grounds rarely have WiFi or power. Peter’s equipment is completely self-contained, so it needs neither a mains socket nor an internet connection from the site. He will arrive in good time, set up discreetly away from the mourners, and be ready before the cortege arrives, whatever the weather.
The whole day, if you wish
Many families choose to stream only the committal, while others want everyone to share more. With your agreement, Peter can stream from the family home, follow the procession, film the service, continue to the graveside, and carry on to the wake. You decide how much of the day is shared.
A private page for your guests
Peter sets up a private web page and streams live straight to it. You choose who receives the link, and it can be passed to anyone with an internet connection, whether they live nearby or on the other side of the world. Guests can watch on a computer, phone, tablet, iPad or Smart TV. You can also add up to 10 photographs of your loved one to the page.
Sensitive to the moment
A burial is deeply personal, and every family and faith has its own customs. Please tell Peter if there are moments that should not be filmed, where he should and shouldn’t stand, or any requests from your clergy, imam, priest, celebrant or the cemetery itself. He will follow them with care and discretion.
A recording to keep
After the day, Peter carefully edits the footage and uploads it to your private page. Family and friends can watch it again whenever they wish, and you can download a copy to keep.

Common questions
Can relatives who live far away watch the graveside committal?
