Before the funeral
Planning your loved one's funeral
Your funeral director will arrange everything for you to ensure your loved one’s funeral runs smoothly. This means you have time to focus on more important things, like spending time with family and friends and looking after yourself. We can also arrange for you to meet with clergy or the celebrant, so you can share stories and help them create a highly personalised funeral service.
By having a look at our planning guide, you’ll be able to think about some options and provide a few details before we meet.
We also offer a free guide to planning and selecting music, poetry and readings, which includes ideas for a beautiful and meaningful funeral. Ask your funeral director for a copy.
View our pre-planning guideWhy choose embalming?
- If there’s a long period of time between your loved one passing and their funeral.
- To allow family and friends who are travelling from far away to say goodbye.
- To allow for a more informal goodbye with family and friends over time.
- If you’re having an open casket funeral.
We handle the whole process with utmost respect
Traditionally, New Zealanders choose to embalm their loved one because it allows them and their family and friends to have a good experience when spending time with their loved one. We can even show you how to care for your loved one yourself at home. For more information about the embalming process, visit the New Zealand Embalmers Association website.
