What to say while scattering ashes at sea ?
Before a scattering at sea ceremony, always nice to think about what is the best way to commemorate your loved one with the Bag Pipe. It could be a speech, toast, prayer or story. For inspiration think about the life of the deceased, some great experiences you have shared, or a prayer that has meaning to the deceased or the family.
How does an unattended burial at sea work with Bag Pipe?
On our unattended burial at sea services we perform a traditional ash scattering service on your behalf. Interestingly, the boat travels 3 nautical miles before the captain will gently release the ashes into the sea followed by the sound of the Bag Pipe Players.
