Burial
A traditional choice for many families. We have tailored options to ensure a respectful and meaningful farewell for your loved one.
Service and burial at the graveside
Family and friends can gather at the burial site for a ceremony that can be as simple or elaborate as desired. This provides a direct connection to the burial process and is ideal for those who wish to honour their loved one in a serene, outdoor setting. Families often find comfort in being able to witness the final moments as they say goodbye.
Service followed by a graveside burial
This includes a formal funeral service at a service location (chapel, church, or another meaningful place), followed by a procession to the graveside for the burial. This allows time for shared memories and eulogies before moving to the cemetery for the committal. This choice balances the structure of a formal service with the intimacy of a graveside farewell, offering a comprehensive way to honour and remember a loved one.
Traditional venue
Church services—many families choose to hold a funeral service at their local church, reflecting the importance of their faith and community.
We can assist in coordinating these services at churches throughout the area.
Somewhere unique
Services can be held at unique or meaningful venues, such as a historic building or family property, followed by a graveside service.
