Service details

Find out more about The Bristol Funeral and what it entails:

We offer Silver, Gold and Platinum funeral packages, giving you a choice of venues in which to hold your loved one's funeral service. These range from sports clubs to grand houses situated in the green expanses of the Bristol countryside. Whichever package you choose, you will be able to remember your loved one in a service that gives you the time to pay your respects at a fitting location.

- The Silver Package - £2,645

As not all the locations are suitable for a coffin, we also offer what we call the back-to-front funeral, where the cremation takes place beforehand and your loved one's ashes casket is present at the service. This way, you can still say your goodbye at the venue of your choosing.

Please ask in branch for further details of the venues available as part of The Bristol Funeral.
