Bespoke Plan

Home / Bespoke Plan

While some people like the comfort of tradition when it comes to a funeral style, you may prefer to add some quirky elements either to better reflect your personality or just to be a little bit different.

 

Some suggestions include:

 

  • Specialist vehicles - e.g. vintage vehicles, lorries, motorcycle corteges, horse drawn hearses, tractor and trailer, Land Rover hearse
  • Monumental masonry and memorials
  • Personalised funeral stationery to include photographs, poems, drawings or other tributes
  • Unusual coffins, caskets and urns
  • Burial at sea
  • Music - many different types of music are now regularly played at funerals including bells, bagpipes and jazz bands
  • Military and Emergency Services funerals
  • Eulogy - help with writing a eulogy which is a truly personal tribute
  • Plant a tree in memoriam
  • Sound and vision relay - if a service is taking place in very small venue where people are going to have to stand outside
  • Walking funerals - we can plan for a walking funeral cortege
  • Doves - we can plan for doves to be released at the close of the service

 

Tell us exactly what you’re thinking and we’ll help to tailor a plan just for you.

 

Whatever kind of funeral you create, rest assured that with a Golden Leaves Funeral Plan, the funeral directors’ fees as specified are guaranteed when the funeral takes place. In some cases, however, your estate or executors may be asked for an additional contribution towards ‘disbursements’ if their prices have risen beyond the increase in the Retail Price Index. These are usually payments to third parties such as cemetery or crematorium fees, medical fees or musicians, for example.
