Things to Consider
Planning a funeral involves several considerations to ensure a smooth and meaningful service.
Some key factors to keep in mind include:
​
Choosing the date of the funeral: Select a day and time that accommodates the availability of family and friends and consider choosing a date that holds special meaning to you and your loved ones.
​
Selecting the location: Decide on the venue for the funeral service and consider the space needed for the gathering after the service. Whether at home or a hired venue, our team can provide guidance and support.
​
Music selection: Plan and organise the music to be played during the service, ensuring it reflects your loved one's preferences or holds significance to their life.
​
Readings: Choose meaningful readings or scriptures to be shared during the service, allowing attendees to reflect on your loved one's life and find comfort in shared words.
Eulogies: Prepare heartfelt eulogies to pay tribute to your loved one, sharing cherished memories and emotions that celebrate their life.
​
Burial preferences: Consider your loved one's wishes regarding burial options, such as traditional burial, woodland burial, burial at sea or cremation.
​
Rituals: Incorporate meaningful rituals into the service to add a traditional and comforting touch. Our funeral directors can assist in incorporating appropriate rituals if desired.
​
Floral tributes: Explore floral arrangements to add a special touch to the funeral service, from modest displays to elaborate tributes.
