On the Day of the Funeral:
Our support extends throughout every phase of the funeral proceedings, encompassing the funeral procession, the funeral service, the committal service, and the wake. Our dedicated team will discuss your preferences, assist in selecting a fitting tribute, and fulfil any final wishes you may have. We offer a comprehensive guide, providing step-by-step assistance and addressing any inquiries you might have.
When the day of the funeral arrives, our Funeral Directors take charge of all necessary preparations, ensuring a seamless and punctual service. Our fleet of elegant limousines are at your disposal to convey your family and friends to the service venue. Meanwhile, your departed loved one is prepared with meticulous attention to detail in accordance with your specifications before being transferred in one of our top-quality hearses. Any floral tributes, flowers, or portraits selected for the funeral are also thoughtfully placed inside the hearse.
During the funeral procession, which typically commences from the residence of the deceased, our Funeral Directors oversee route inspections and ensure there are an adequate number of pallbearers to convey the coffin with utmost respect. If you have specific requests, such as a preferred route or stops at meaningful landmarks, we make every effort to accommodate them.
Upon arrival at the church or crematorium, your Funeral Director manages all logistical aspects, including any requested music and the distribution of order of service sheets. They coordinate with the service conductor and chapel attendants to ensure a seamless execution. Your Funeral Director will guide you into the venue, ensuring all guests are seated before proceeding with the funeral service. Subsequently, depending on whether it is a burial or cremation, you may opt for a committal service at the same location or a different one. Once more, the Funeral Director is there to facilitate and assist you and your guests.
If you have chosen a location for a wake or reception, we can provide you with a list of local venues and accompany you to your selected destination.
In the days that follow, we maintain contact to ensure your experience was satisfactory. Additionally, we offer guidance on matters such as collecting ashes and selecting a suitable memorial (which can include customised jewellery). We can also assist with arrangements for returning or placing flowers and wreaths.
