Start a Memorial
HOUSE OF DMX MEMORIALS
We will guide you, one step at a time.
You do not need to write the obituary yourself or gather everything before getting started.
Have a fixed service date or need a rush order? Please contact us before paying so we can confirm availability. A deposit does not guarantee a rush deadline.
Four easy steps
- Choose one package and pay the deposit. Use one button below. It opens Shopify checkout with one deposit already selected. Use an email address you check regularly. Your deposit counts toward your total; it is not an extra charge.
- Complete your design questionnaire. After payment, fill out the Memorial Design Questionnaire with your order number, contact details, loved one’s story and design wishes. Optional blanks are okay. Upload your authorized JPG or PNG photos in the questionnaire; you can send more later.
- Review your draft. We help organize the information and let you know what is missing. You review names, dates, wording and photos. Two revision rounds are included.
- Approve, then pay the balance. We send payment instructions after you approve. The remaining half is not charged automatically. We deliver or publish after approval and final payment.
Step 1: Choose one package
Obituary Writing
A written obituary, two revision rounds and a finished PDF.
$32.50 today + $32.50 after approval = $65 total.
Digital Memorial
A memorial webpage with up to five photos, obituary, service details, shareable link, QR code and two revision rounds.
$62.50 today + $62.50 after approval = $125 total.
Memorial & Program
A digital memorial with up to ten photos, shareable link, QR code, matching four-page funeral-program PDF and two revision rounds.
$100 today + $100 after approval = $200 total.
Step 2: Complete your questionnaire
Open the Memorial Design Questionnaire. It guides you through contact details, life story, colors, style, services and family approval. You can also email us if you need help.
Prefer email? Use this list
Send to houseofdmx@gmail.com. You can copy this list into your email:
- Order number:
- Your name:
- Loved one's name:
- Requested deadline or service date:
- Details or photos I have so far:
- Details I still need help with:
Use the same email address you used at checkout when possible. If someone else paid, include their order number so we can match your information. You can also use our contact form for questions.
Details you can gather as you go
- Full name, preferred name, birth and passing dates.
- Memories, interests, achievements and life story.
- Family names to include, with spelling checked.
- Service dates, times and locations.
- Up to five photos for Digital Memorial, or ten for Memorial & Program.
- For a funeral program: service order, participants, acknowledgments and readings you have permission to use.
You do not have to get everything perfect
No finished obituary? That is okay. Missing a photo or a date? Send what you have and tell us what is still missing. Choose one family member to coordinate the project. Nothing is published without your approval.
How do I know my payment worked? Look for your Shopify order confirmation and order number. Check your spam folder too. If you are unsure, email us before trying to pay again.
What happens right after payment? Shopify confirms your purchase. Your next step is to complete your design questionnaire. Checkout collects payment; the questionnaire collects your story and design wishes. Upload photos directly in the questionnaire, or email additional photos with your order number.
Do I pay the full amount today? No. You pay half now and the other half after approving your tribute. Optional additions must be agreed separately. Any applicable taxes appear at checkout.
Will anything arrive by mail? These packages are digital services. No shipping or physical printing is included.
Tell us which information should appear publicly. Only send text and photos you are authorized to share. Please do not send identity documents or card details.
