Nine Night & Repast

Celebrating a life, the Jamaican way.

The Nine Night — our Set-Up — is one of the most cherished of Jamaican traditions: a gathering of family, friends, and community to celebrate a life with food, music, memory, and faith. We handle every practical detail so your family can simply gather and grieve, together.

What we handle

Everything but the memories.

Marquee & seating

Weatherproof tents, tables, chairs, and lighting to host your gathering at home, church, or hall.

Sound & stage

PA systems, microphones, and lighting for tributes, testimonies, singing, and the deejay.

Catering & bar

Traditional food and refreshments — from mannish water and curry goat to full repast spreads.

Décor & set-up

Memorial table, photographs, candles, drapery, and floral arrangements, set and cleared for you.

Coordination & MC

A coordinator to run the night, and an MC to guide tributes, prayers, and the order of events.

Security & parking

Marshals and lighting for safe parking and a calm, orderly gathering into the night.

We also cater the repast — the meal shared after the funeral service — at your home, church hall, or a venue of your choosing, with the same care and quality.

Reach out

We are here, whenever you need us.
