Funeral Live Streaming to the West Indies

 

 

Bring the whole family together for the homegoing, from the UK to the islands

 

In West Indian families, a homegoing belongs to everyone: the church family, the neighbours, the elders, the cousins and the friends who have known your loved one for years. When someone passes in the UK, many of those closest to them may be in Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad, Grenada, St Lucia, Antigua, Guyana or elsewhere in the West Indies. Short-notice flights can be costly, and sometimes they just aren’t possible. Peter’s live streaming service lets them watch the service as it happens, join in the hymns, hear the tributes and say their goodbyes, even from thousands of miles away.

 

 

One private link, easy to share

 

Peter creates a private web page for the service and streams to it live. You choose who receives the link. Send it to parents, aunties and uncles back home, to family in New York, Toronto or Miami, and to friends across the UK. It works on a phone, tablet, laptop or Smart TV, and it’s easy to pass on by WhatsApp or text. Up to 10 photographs of your loved one can be shown on the page.

 

 

A calm, respectful presence

 

Peter works quietly and discreetly, staying in the background so the service goes ahead just as your family and church wish. That includes the hymns, scripture readings, tributes, eulogy and committal. If there are moments you would rather not be filmed, such as a private prayer or the viewing, let him know beforehand and he will plan around them.

 

 

Any venue, any setting

 

Peter’s equipment works without the venue’s WiFi or mains power, so a weak signal or a lack of sockets won’t interrupt the broadcast. Where the venue allows, he can film at the family home, through the church service and on to the graveside, so relatives in the West Indies can follow the whole day.

 

 

Plan around the time difference

 

The West Indies is between 4 and 6 hours behind the UK, depending on the island and the time of year. Jamaica is 5 hours behind in winter and 6 hours behind during British Summer Time, while Barbados and Trinidad are 4 hours behind in winter and 5 hours behind in summer. Peter can help you decide how to share the start time, so everyone knows exactly when to join.

 

 

A recording to keep

 

After the service, Peter lightly edits the footage and adds it to the same private page. Relatives who couldn’t watch live, perhaps because of the time difference, can watch whenever suits them. You can also download a copy to keep for the family.

 

 

Fair, clear pricing

 

Peter is a full-time videographer and live streaming specialist, offering a caring, professional service at a fair price. Live streaming to the West Indies for one venue starts at £315.00 + travel.

 

 

Areas covered

 

Peter works across the Midlands, including Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Coventry, Leicester, Derby and Nottingham, and will travel anywhere in the UK.

 

 

Common questions

 

Can our relatives in the West Indies watch live?
Yes. Anyone with an internet connection can join using the private link, wherever they are in the world.

 

Can we share the link with a large number of people?
Yes. You choose who receives it, and you can send it to as many family members and friends as you wish.

 

What about the time difference?
It depends on the island and the time of year, but the West Indies is between 4 and 6 hours behind the UK. Peter can help you plan the start time.

 

Can you film more than the service itself?
Yes. Where the venue allows, Peter can stream from the family home, the church or chapel, and the graveside.

 

What if the venue has no WiFi or power?
That’s not a problem. Peter’s equipment works without either.

 

Will there be a recording afterwards?
Yes. A lightly edited version is added to your private page, where it can be watched again or downloaded.

 

How much does it cost?
Live streaming for one venue is £315.00 + travel.
