The above video is from an actual webcast to Ireland, of a funeral, from The Oratory of Saint Philip Neri, in Birmingham, UK.

 

Friends, relatives and family back home in Ireland were able to view the arrival, service and departure and have their own form of closure, but also to celebrate a life worth lived

Funeral Live Streaming to Ireland

 

Many families in England have roots in Ireland, with parents, brothers, sisters and old friends who still live there. When someone dies, those are the people who most want to be present and can least easily make the journey at short notice. Peter, a full-time videographer and live stream expert, has filmed and streamed many funerals and memorial services, so that family and friends in Ireland can be part of the day, live, from wherever they are.

 

Being there, even from across the Irish Sea

 

Whether it’s a Requiem Mass, a funeral service, a gathering at the family home, or a burial or cremation, Peter streams it live so loved ones in Ireland can take part as it happens. Many people choose to gather together to watch, in a living room, a parish hall or a local pub, so that the day is shared and nobody grieves alone.

 

Streaming from churches and rural venues

 

Smaller and more remote venues often have no WiFi, and sometimes no mains power either. Peter’s set-up doesn’t need either one. He can stream from the family home, follow the service to the church or chapel, and continue on to the graveside or crematorium if you’d like the whole day shared.

 

A private page for family and friends

 

Rather than posting on social media, Peter creates a private web page just for the service. You send the link to the people you choose, in Ireland or anywhere else in the world, and they watch live on a computer, smartphone, Smart TV, iPad or tablet. The page can also include up to 10 photos of your loved one and the Order of Service.

 

A keepsake recording

 

After the service, Peter lightly edits the footage and adds it to the same page. Guests can watch it again whenever they wish, and you can download it to keep. It is especially valued by those who couldn’t watch live because of work, travel or time differences.

 

Streaming to every part of Ireland

 

Anyone with an internet connection can watch, in Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick, Waterford, Belfast, Derry, Kilkenny, Sligo, Donegal, Kerry, Mayo, or anywhere else in Ireland, north or south. Peter’s service is available throughout England and Wales.

 

 

 

Questions families ask

 

Can relatives in Ireland watch live?
Yes. Anyone with an internet connection can join from anywhere in Ireland or the rest of the world.

 

Do people need an account or any software to watch?
No. It’s a basic web page, not searchable by Google, with no password, and very easy to view.

 

Can you stream from a remote church or burial ground?
Yes. No WiFi or mains power is needed.

 

Can you film at the house and the graveside as well as the service?
Yes, if the family would like it.

 

Will we have a copy afterwards?
Yes. The recording is added to the web page and can be downloaded.

 

How much does it cost?
£315.00 + travel, for one venue.
