Livestream Services Overview
High Quality Video and Audio
You don’t have to stress that your guests will miss a moment because of blurry video or sound accidentally being muted. A professional camera operator will be on-site to handle it all.
Unlimited Guests
Our livestreams allow for unlimited guests from anywhere in the world with an internet connection so you can have the comfort and support of your far-reaching community.
Interactive Livestreams
In an interactive service, you can have anyone from anywhere speak, perform or pray in the program. Involve the family & friends who can’t be there in-person through a TV at the funeral home, displayed when it’s their turn to speak.
More Special Moments
There’s no need to feel limited. You can present pre-recorded eulogies, slideshows, or music from your far-away guests on a TV to make the day even more heartfelt.
Invitation Memorial Page
We create an invitation page you can share with your friends & family that includes detailed instructions on how to join the livestream service.
Tribute Slideshows
Send us all your photos, videos, and song choices, and we'll create unique tribute slideshows to honor your someone.
Digital Story Sharing
Friends and family can share a story or memory by video, voice or text. These stories can be collected before, during, and after the service and are hosted on the invitation page forever.
Virtual Event Support
A remote Afterword team member takes care of all the technology and troubleshoots your event in real-time so you can be in the moment.
Shareable Recording
You get a shareable recording of your event, the guest list, and the chat transcript from your guests so the memories are forever preserved.
We Go With You
We are with you every step of the way. Our camera operator will be there for viewings, services, and gravesite burials.
Staffing Information
We’ll provide two staff members for each service.
- Videographer. A professional videographer from our network will be on-site to film the service, using high quality cameras and microphones. They handle all aspects of setup and recording. If the funeral home has a built-in sound system, we can connect directly to that equipment, offering your family the highest quality streaming.
- Virtual Event Manager. An Afterword technical staff member will manage the virtual experience off-site. They’ll handle playing all slideshows, videos, music, and images. These can also be shown in your funeral homes by connecting the virtual service into a TV on-site.

What families are saying
The Afterword team were incredible to work with. Responsive, compassionate, helpful and thoughtful from the very start. They worked seamlessly and professionally with the venue. Many of our guests who joined us virtually remarked that they felt like they were right there with us in person such was their experience. I really can’t thank them enough for supporting us through this time.

Last minute, eleventh hour, and on New Year's Eve Afterword to the rescue. My father's service was on the following Tuesday, Afterword worked with me through New Years Day and the weekend to ensure my father's service would be flawless and flawless it was! I received many comments of the quality, clarity, sound, "camera work" of the feed. The online viewers felt as if they were in the room, participating in the service.

Afterword gave me the best service I could imagine. I would give them 6 Stars if I could. They listen carefully and respond intelligently and quickly. I think I was possibly rather demanding, asking for a lot, pretty much done my own way. The response was perfect, and the memorial for my late husband was quite satisfying. My recommendation is unconditional!
