Memorial Program Studio

A funeral program for someone you love, finished in an afternoon.

You answer one question at a time and add photographs from your phone. We make the printed program, a slideshow for the service and a memorial page to share, and you see all of it before paying a cent.

What you receive

You fill in the details once, and everything below is made from them.

The printed program

A folded program that looks professionally printed, with their portrait, the service, the order of service and their story. You get one file for a print shop and one for your own printer.

Plays on repeat

The slideshow

All of your photographs, one after another, on repeat for as long as the gathering lasts. It comes as a file for a laptop, a video for a television, a PowerPoint and a folder of images for a photo frame.

The memorial page

A web page for everyone who could not be there, with the photographs, their story, the service details and a guestbook you approve. You also get a QR code image that opens it, and it stays online for a year.

How it works

It takes about twenty minutes, on a phone or a computer.

There is nothing to install and no design work to do. If you need to stop, everything is saved for when you come back.

  1. 1Answer the questions

    One question per screen: their name, the dates, the service, the order of service and a few words about their life. You can skip anything you do not know yet.

  2. 2Add photographs

    Add up to ninety from your phone or computer. The first one goes on the cover. For an old print, take a photo of it with your phone.

  3. 3Choose a design and check it all

    Pick one of four designs, then look through the program, watch the slideshow and read the page. When everything looks right, pay once and download it all.

Family and friends

Family and friends can send their photos and memories for the program.

You send them a link. They add photos and write down a memory from their phone or computer, with no account. Nothing they send is used until you include it.

For the program

Any photo they send can go into the program and the slideshow with one tap. The writing help can also draft the obituary from the memories you include.

A memory book, with Everything

The photos and memories you include, their life story and the guestbook messages, in pages to print at home and in a square size for a photo-book printer. Everyone you sent the link to can download it for 30 days.

Why families choose it

Made for the week when you have no time and no energy to learn a design tool.

Change anything for thirty days
If you find a mistake after paying, you can fix it for thirty days and download new files at no extra cost.
Works without internet
The slideshow plays on a laptop, or on a television from the video file, with no internet needed. The program prints at home or at any print shop.
Your photographs stay private
They are used only to make your files, and they are never shared. They are deleted on a set schedule, explained on the privacy page.

Ten programs for $120, with your name on the back of each.

Give each family a code instead of a template. They make the program on their own phone, so your staff have nothing to lay out.

Questions

Answers to the questions families ask first.

How long does it take?

About twenty minutes, if you have the details and photographs ready. You answer one question at a time and add photographs from your phone, and the program is laid out for you. You can stop at any point and come back later without losing anything.

Do I need an account?

No. There is nothing to sign up for. When you are done you pay once, and the receipt email has a link back to your files for 30 days.

Can I see it before I pay?

Yes. The whole editor and a watermarked preview of everything are free. Paying removes the watermark and unlocks the downloads.

Where do I print it?

Any print shop or office-supply store can print the print-shop PDF; it comes with a page that tells them the paper and settings. There is also a home-printer version for an ordinary printer.

What happens to the photos?

They are used only to make your program, slideshow and page, and they are never shared or sold. If you do not pay, everything is deleted after 7 days. Paid files are deleted after 30 days, and a memorial page after 12 months unless you extend it.

What does it cost?

You pay once, with no subscription: $29 for the program, $59 for the program and a memorial web page, or $79 for everything, including the slideshow in every format and a memory book of the photos and memories you include from family and friends.
