Personalisation

Whilst this coffin is supplied as standard with an Essential Funeral you might want to opt for a Tailored Funeral so that you can choose from a wider range of customisable coffins. Ask your funeral director for more information on the coffins that allow these personal touches to be added.

Pallbearers

If you’d like friends or family to carry the coffin into the service, tell your funeral director. Ideally, they would all be a similar height with shorter bearers at the front. If carrying the coffin isn’t suitable, we’ll use a wheeled bier to bring the coffin in.
