Just as no two people are the same, no two funerals are alike.

Here at Arthur W. Bryant Funeral Service, we will work with you to make your loved one’s funeral as unique as they were.

Whether it be a favourite landmark to pass with the cortege, a specialist mode of transport, (for example a horse drawn or motorbike sidecar hearse) or a special piece of music or poetry, we will help you to tailor make the service. Below are some of the ways we can make the service unique to you and your loved ones.

Choosing a burial or cremation

The decision as to whether to commit your loved one via burial or cremation is a very personal one and may be influenced by factors such as family tradition, culture and religious beliefs. Your loved one may have made their wishes clear prior to their passing.

Choosing a coffin or casket

Coffins come in various styles and materials and can be adapted to suit the type of committal that you have chosen for your loved one.

Flowers & Floral Tributes

Flowers at a funeral are a simple and beautiful way to create a personal tribute and our ranges of tributes include bouquets, wreaths and sprays, through to coffin displays and specialist designs.

Listing of Mourners

It is becoming increasingly common for families to request the listing of names at the funeral. This is where a member of staff from The Arthur W. Bryant Funeral Service or a representative from the local community would wait outside the venue of the funeral and ask people to give their names. The family would then be provided with a typed list of those attending as a record of the service. This can also be used to create an obituary report for the local newspaper.

Hearse and Family Vehicles

There are many transport options and we will discuss these options with you when arranging the funeral. Our funeral directors can make all of the necessary travel arrangements for you. Read more about those here.

No request is too big or small to make your loved one’s send off special.

For more information please contact one of the team who will be happy to go over any of your questions or requirements.
