The choice is yours

There can sometimes be confusion about funeral costs, and it can be difficult to compare prices between different services. The cost of each funeral will be determined by your family’s wishes.

There are many offerings for you to personalise a service. You will decide from a burial or cremation, a Church service or at our Chapel, perhaps an outdoor area, a private residence such as a farm or other venue. You will choose either a celebrant or clergy to conduct the service. Our coffins and caskets including prices are on our website. Optional flowers, press notices and other disbursements are charged at cost. Extra fees will apply for production and printing of service sheets or video tributes and after service catering.

Funerals are very personal things. The best way to accurately assess costs is in a face-to-face interview with an experienced Funeral Director so that all the options can be explained and understood. We can demonstrate what is involved and clearly explain your choices.

What things influence cost?

Some of the things that determine cost are:

  • Whether the funeral involves a cremation or a burial
  • The choice of coffin – construction, materials and the extent of workmanship
  • The type and size of floral arrangements
  • The length, style and number of death and funeral notices placed in newspapers
  • Charges made by celebrants and the clergy
  • The extent of catering for post-funeral gatherings
  • The level of Funeral Director service offered

Remember – a funeral is a combination of many services – each with an influence on cost.

What you need to do

Call us for an appointment to meet with a Funeral Director who will outline the options available to you, explain the detail and provide you with a written estimate of expenses.

If your preference is for a private funeral conducted with respect, we are happy to facilitate that for you.  If you wish to arrange a more involved funeral catering to very large numbers of mourners, a longer or more complex service, or any special arrangements – we can help to ensure that everything happens just as you choose.
