Step 1
Choosing the Type of Funeral

Your first decision is the kind of service that best reflects your loved one. Whether it’s a burial, cremation, or natural funeral, we’ll guide you through your options—helping you decide on a religious, non-religious, formal, or informal approach that aligns with your family’s wishes.

Step 2: Planning the Service

We’ll help you shape a personal tribute, from selecting music and readings to arranging the officiant or celebrant and choosing a location—be it a church, crematorium chapel, or graveside. You’re welcome to include personal items or photos that tell your loved one’s story. We also manage all practical elements, including the date, coffin selection, transport, and paperwork—so you can focus on what matters most.

Informing Family and Friends

We can assist in sharing funeral details with friends and family—via newspaper notices, online memorial pages, or printed service sheets. Our team can help create spaces where people can offer condolences, share memories, and find comfort in one another.

Taking Care of Yourself

Grief takes time. While planning a funeral, it’s just as important to look after your own wellbeing. Lean on friends, family, and professional support if needed—we’re here not just to help arrange the funeral, but to support you throughout.
