CelebrateReel for memorials

A tribute the family helps build, together.

Sons in one state, daughters in another, grandchildren scattered. They each have the photos. CelebrateReel collects from everyone, renders a music-timed tribute, and has it ready before the service. (Funeral directors: visit our page for funeral homes.)

In loving memory

Eleanor Wright

1942 — 2026
“Every grandchild in the room saw a photo only they would have remembered.”
A real tribute

Watch one we built.

Sample reel coming soon
A memorial tribute reel rendered with CelebrateReel. A real one is in production — it will live here as soon as the family approves the share.
How it works

Three steps. Nobody chasing photos.

CelebrateReel handles collection, music sync, and rendering. You handle pressing play.

01

Share the link with family

Send the upload link to siblings, grandchildren, in-laws, lifelong friends. They contribute from their phone, anywhere — no app, no login. Whoever has the photos gets them in.

02

Choose music that fits

Hymns, classical, jazz standards, a song they loved. Pick from the catalog or upload an audio file the family wants. We render against it without re-licensing.

03

Play it at the service

Plays from any laptop, projector, or smart TV with a browser. The reel lives at one URL the family can keep — to play at the meal after, share with mourners who couldn't travel, or revisit on the anniversary.

Where it shines

Built for memorials, end to end.

The service itself

Plays during the eulogy, the reception after, or both. Quiet pacing, gentle transitions — the memorial template is intentionally unhurried.

Family who can't travel

The reel lives at a private URL anyone with the link can play. A cousin in Auckland watches the same tribute the church saw.

Anniversary remembrance

The reel doesn't expire. Replay it on the one-year anniversary. Add new photos — grandchildren born after, milestones reached — and re-render.

Frequently asked

Real questions, honest answers.

How fast can a memorial reel be ready?
About ten minutes of render time once photos are in. Most families collect over two or three days. If the service is tomorrow and photos are still coming, rush-render delivers within the hour.
Can we use a specific song that meant something to them?
Yes. Upload any audio file the family owns and we render against it without re-licensing. Our catalog also includes hymns, classical pieces, and jazz standards already cleared for memorial use.
Is this the same as your funeral home offering?
No — that's a different product for funeral directors who run this for many families ($149/mo, all included). This page is for a family arranging one tribute themselves. Funeral home page is here.
