A memorial light is a gentle, comforting way to keep someone close. Our collection of personalised funeral and memorial lights includes battery-powered lanterns with a flickering flame effect, photo lanterns and remembrance lights with fairy lights, each one a soft glow to place beside a photograph, on a shelf or on a mantelpiece.

Personalised in our UK workshop, every light can carry a name, and many can carry your own photo, names and dates. Whether you are choosing a memorial lantern for your own home or sending one to someone who is grieving, we handle every order with care and can deliver it directly to them without prices or invoices. If you would prefer a traditional flame, browse our memorial candles and memorial tea light holders.

 

Personalised Memorial Lanterns and Lights to Keep a Loved One Close

A personalised memorial light turns a name or a favourite photograph into a soft glow you can keep close. We offer three styles to suit different spaces and occasions:

  • Flickering Flame Memorial Lanterns: Battery-powered lanterns in bronze or white with a realistic flickering flame effect and no open flame. Each is personalised with a name, while the wording and design stay as shown, in a choice of In Loving Memory designs.
  • Photo Upload Memorial Lanterns: A white or bronze lantern printed on all four sides with your chosen photo, names and dates. Choose a sentiment such as "Goodbyes Are Not Forever" or "Your Life Was A Blessing", or a rose design for Mum, Nan, Nanny or Grandma.
  • Remembrance Lights with Fairy Lights: Keepsake lights with fairy lights that give a warm, comforting glow. Choose a sentiment such as "Rainbows In The Sky", "Always In My Thoughts" or "Those We Love", or add a favourite photo to a design for a parent, grandparent, husband, wife or son.

Choosing the Right Memorial Light

When choosing a memorial light, think about where it will be displayed and whether you would like to add a photograph.

Tip: For the clearest print, upload a bright, high-resolution photograph rather than a screenshot.

Custom Inscription Ideas for Memorial Lights

Because lantern panels and lights have limited space, short and meaningful wording works best. Many of our designs are personalised with a name while the rest of the wording stays as shown, and photo lanterns also carry your chosen names and dates. Check the personalisation options on each product page.

Popular inscriptions include:

  • "In loving memory of [Name]."
  • "Forever in our hearts."
  • "Your light will always shine."
  • "Gone from our sight, never from our hearts."
  • "Until we meet again."

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your memorial lanterns real flame or sky lanterns?

Neither. Our memorial lanterns are battery-powered display lanterns with a realistic flickering flame effect, so there is no open flame. They are not sky or water lanterns for release. Please check the product page for battery details before you order.

Can I add my own photo to a memorial lantern?

Yes. Our photo upload lanterns are printed on all four sides with your chosen photo, names and dates, and you can choose a white or bronze lantern. Upload a bright, high-resolution photograph for the clearest result.

What is the difference between your memorial lights and memorial lamps?

Our memorial lights are battery-powered lanterns and remembrance lights with fairy lights. Our memorial lamps are LED lamps and photo night lights, several of them powered by USB, for a bedside or shelf.

Can I send a memorial light directly to a grieving friend?

Yes. Enter their address at checkout and your parcel will go out without prices or paper invoices. You can also include a free printed condolence message with your order.

How quickly are personalised memorial lights dispatched?

Most of our personalised lights are made and dispatched from our UK workshop within 1 to 2 working days. If you need one for a service or an anniversary, express UK delivery options are available at checkout.
