The Sea Burial Ceremony<\/h3>\n

There are multiple ways to customize your ceremony with the help of our team.<\/p>\n

The ceremony can consist of tossing real flowers at the location where the ashes are to be scattered. The flowers can be separate or combined with the ashes. Our captain will then circle around the site while the family members and guests say their final goodbyes. Once the final goodbyes have been said our team would be happy to assist with a champagne toast or your drink of choice. If your loved one had a special drink we would love to know and help make this moment even more meaningful.<\/p>\n

A prayer can be recited, words may be shared, or a moment of silence.<\/p>\n

If you provide us with your loved ones favorite music, our crew will play it before and after the ceremony that can occur at any time of the day or night. We would recommend a peaceful sunset ceremony surrounded by nature and the possibly jumping dolphins which is a great way to celebrate life.<\/p>\n
