Funeral services are a part of everyone’s life. Pre-planning is a good way to make sure that you have the funeral that’s right for you.
Our experience shows that pre-planned and personalised funerals bring great comfort to families, because they’re reassured that they’re fulfilling their loved one’s wishes. Although we’ll record your wishes, your family will be able to make any changes that they’d like.
Why pre-plan your funeral?
Your funeral, your way
If you choose to pre-plan your funeral, you’ll be able to record your wishes, from whether you wish to be buried or cremated through to the venue, flowers, music and readings.
Ease your loved ones’ stress
Funeral planning can be stressful. By recording your wishes, your family will be comforted that they’re giving you the goodbye you wanted. But they’re also free to make any changes that they’d like.
How to pre-plan your funeral
There are 2 ways we can help you pre-plan your funeral:
- Record your wishes by filling out our pre-planning form.
- A free pre-planning consultation with one of our funeral directors.
Contact us to arrange an appointment. We can also discuss how to pre-pay your funeral to provide peace of mind.
