How to Create a Digital Guest Book, Obituary Page & Photo Gallery for a Funeral

Modern funerals in Ghana are embracing digital tools to extend the reach of memorial events beyond the physical venue. With FuneralPress, you can now create three powerful online memorials — a digital guest book, an obituary announcement page, and a photo gallery — each for just 1 credit.

Digital Guest Book

A digital guest book lets mourners who cannot attend in person leave heartfelt messages of condolence. Family and friends can sign the guest book from anywhere in the world using their phone or computer. Each entry includes the signer's name and message, creating a lasting record of love and support.

  • Create your guest book in seconds — enter the deceased's name and an optional cover message.
  • Share the unique link via WhatsApp, SMS, or social media.
  • Mourners sign from anywhere — no app download needed.
  • All entries are saved permanently for the family to revisit.

Online Obituary Page

An online obituary announcement page serves as a central hub for sharing funeral details with everyone who needs to know. It includes the biography, funeral date and venue, a countdown timer to the service, and family information. Instead of sending individual messages, share one link that has everything.

  • Add the full biography, funeral date, time, and venue.
  • Automatic countdown timer shows days until the service.
  • Share via WhatsApp or any platform with a single link.
  • Beautifully designed page that honours the deceased.

Memorial Photo Gallery

A memorial photo gallery brings together cherished photographs of the deceased in one beautiful online space. Family members can upload photos, add captions, and share the gallery with everyone. It becomes a visual tribute that can be viewed during the funeral or any time after.

  • Upload multiple photos with captions.
  • Masonry layout with lightbox viewing.
  • Share the gallery link for anyone to view.
  • Perfect for families spread across multiple cities or countries.

How Credits Work

Each of these services costs just 1 credit to create. You can purchase credits through the FuneralPress checkout. Users with unlimited plans can create as many guest books, obituaries, and galleries as they need at no additional cost. The created pages are permanent — they stay online for the family to revisit whenever they wish.
