There are some beautiful, hand-made, eco-conscious, elegant, simple coffins available. Many of these coffins are made in Britain, and can be made very personal. There are a whole host of different styles, materials, colours and shapes out there.

Here are some examples which might feel right, or view the entire selection on our full price list via the link below. Of course, if you have found something that you like but haven’t seen on our list, just let us know and we can source it for you.

You may very well already have a venue in mind for the funeral. It may be at your local cemetery or crematorium, or a favourite local woodland. But for some people, none of the ‘standard’ venues feel quite right. It's entirely up to you which crematorium you would like to use for example. We’ve supported lots of people to consider whether their local village hall, pub, sports club, much-loved restaurant or back garden might feel like a more inspiring place to hold a funeral. There’s almost no limit to the possibilities. Talk to us about any and all your ideas.

Here are a few lovely places that might help spark some inspiration:

Some families are confident that they want to lead the service themselves, with the simplicity and privacy that this brings. Others will choose a religious leader to reflect their faith. However lots of families would like someone to help them craft the content of the service. A celebrant can provide a solid anchor for the day, helping to lead the goodbyes. There are some magnificent celebrants who we know well. Do talk to us about what you think you need and we’ll find you just the right person to help.

Whether a simple, discreet hearse-style vehicle feels right, or you’re looking for a traditional, vintage Daimler hearse and matching limousine - there’s a huge range of choices available. We will be able to help find the right option whether you’re looking for something simple and straightforward, elegant and traditional, regal and dramatic, or just personally significant to you. And of course you can absolutely use your own car if the dimensions work.

We can recommend some stunning options to consider - from coffin sprays and hand-tied bouquets to amazing creative displays. You can also bring flowers yourself, from a favourite florist or your own garden.

The emotional power of music, especially when performed live, is often the highlight of any event. There are lots of talented performers and musicians who may be the perfect fit for you and your family, from singers and musicians to bagpipers. Let us know what is important to you and we can connect you with the right people.

It can be so important to include children and babies at funerals. We’d love to help make it easy as possible to keep them amused and busy while the funeral is underway. We are partnering with the brilliant Toy Box Tots to arrange a curated box of age-appropriate toys for the under 5s to help keep the little ones entertained, along with a copy of Badger’s Parting Gifts to take home. We can also help you find experienced and excellent childcare for longer events.

There are beautiful and simple ways to bring extra meaning and to capture memories on the day. Some of these ideas might feel right.

Lots of crematoria will include a simple urn in the price of cremation. But if you would prefer something more personal and beautiful, there are lots of things to choose from. From biodegradable urns shaped as acorns, to beautifully handcrafted wooden urns or simple and elegant scatter tubes to woven bags - let us help find something that is right for you.

Capturing something precious and personal, and keeping it close can help bring comfort. There are some brilliant makers out there who create some lovely mementoes. It might be a delicate piece of fingerprint jewellery or much-loved bear to keep some ashes safe. Here are a few for starters.

Capturing what happens on the day, from small moments to meaningful speeches, can help to bring back the memories you don’t want to forget. We can connect you with incredible, experienced and discreet photographers and videographers who can help create something to treasure.
