Idyllic Funerals

Idyllic Funerals offers personalised, heartfelt celebrations of life in Sydney. I’m Matt Morgan, a Sydney-based funeral director and celebrant.

Partnered with Picaluna, we create tailored funeral and memorial services including burial and cremation options to honour each individual's life. I want to redefine how to say goodbye to your loved one. I worked in financial services for over 20 years until the loss of a dear friend inspired me to explore a more fulfilling path. I am passionate about helping others find comfort and meaning during difficult times. By offering personalised, heartfelt farewells, my aim is to not only change the way funerals are done, but also enrich lives in a profound and lasting way.

In case we haven't met, here is a little more about me:

I’m Matt. Marrickville has been my home for the past four years, and I’m a funeral director and celebrant with Idyllic Funerals.

People often describe me as an all-or-nothing type of person. When it comes to my work, that’s very true, I’m all in. There is nothing I love more than supporting families through some of their hardest, and often most profound moments.

When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me on the jiu jitsu mats or in the sauna, or listening to podcasts and comedy - all things that help keep me grounded.

This work is about listening, presence, and meeting people where they are. I feel incredibly grateful to do something that never feels like just a job.

Choosing a coffin can feel like a big decision, especially when you’re navigating everything else that comes with loss.

There’s often far more choice than people expect, and understanding the options can make things feel much calmer. I’ve written a new blog covering coffin vs casket, eco and traditional options, pricing, and how to choose what feels right.

If you are interested in learning more about becoming a funeral director or celebrant, The Funeral Fix courses are fantastic. They were my formal introduction to the industry and I can't recommend them enough.

How do you choose the right coffin?

It’s a question many families ask, and one that often comes with more options than expected. From simple and sustainable choices to more traditional designs, there’s far more flexibility than people realise.

Next week, I’ll be sharing a more in-depth look at coffin options and what to consider. There’s so much more than meets the eye.

Every farewell is guided with care, presence, and respect.
Taking the time to honour a life well lived. 🕊️

One of the most common things families say to me is,
“I don’t actually know what all these funeral terms mean.”

So I’ve written a plain-English guide explaining common funeral terminology; including NSNA (direct cremation), private cremation, witness insertion, coffin options, and more.

It’s designed to be calm, clear, and helpful, without any pressure.

It’s always a privilege to help families farewell their loved ones.

Each ceremony is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and honour a life in a way that feels right for the people who loved them.

Guided with care, presence, and attention to detail, every step of the way. 🕊️

Planning ahead can be as simple as having a conversation.
No rush, no pressure, just clarity and peace of mind.

If you’d ever like to talk things through, I’m always here.

Happy New Year.

This new year invites reflection, not urgency.

For many people, January is a time to slow down, take stock, and gently think about the year ahead. For some, that includes planning ahead; not from fear, but from a place of care and reassurance.

I’ve shared a new blog reflecting on new beginnings, the symbolism of the Year of the Horse, and how thoughtful planning can bring peace of mind for families.
