Losing a loved one can be difficult to comprehend, and making arrangements for the funeral only adds to the stress and heartache.
Our funeral directors near Caldicot are here to ease the burden – allowing you to mourn the loss of your close friend or family member and give them the send-off they would have wanted.
What we do
The team at Brunel Funeral Directors is on hand to offer guidance and support when you need it the most.
Our funeral directors close to Caldicot can take care of everything from booking the date, time and venue of the cremation or burial service to organising the transport and flowers on the day.
Or, if you’d like to get involved with the process as much as possible, our caring and compassionate team will work closely with you and your family to ensure the deceased gets the send-off they deserve.
As independent funeral directors, we will never rush you into making a decision. Take as long as you need to mull everything over, and feel free to ask as many questions as you like.
Funeral arrangements
Whether it be a large ceremony with a wake afterwards or an intimate service with few or no attendees, the funeral should reflect the wishes and beliefs of the deceased.
We offer a selection of funeral packages near Caldicot, including:
· The Brunel Cremation
If your loved one made it abundantly clear that they wanted to be cremated, as opposed to being buried, the Brunel Funeral is ideal.
This all-inclusive package includes the conveyancing of the deceased into our funeral home, preparation of the body for viewings, and the provision of a simple coffin and hearse. A short service for people to pay their respects and bid farewell by reading poems, singing songs and sharing fond memories will also be included in the price.
· Direct Cremation
Direct cremation is a simple yet dignified cremation service with no formal ceremony or mourners in attendance.
This type of cremation service is best for those who wanted a low-key send-off. It saves you and your family from having to make any tough decisions and, instead, you can celebrate the life of your loved one at a later date (i.e. on their birthday, the anniversary of their death, or when you collect the ashes).
· The Bespoke Service
Our bespoke funeral services can be personalised to suit your family’s needs while reflecting the life, personality and wishes of the deceased.
You get to choose everything from the type of coffin to the music, flower choices and dress code, to ensure they receive the perfect send-off.
Other services
At Brunel Funerals, our funeral directors near Caldicot go above and beyond for bereaved families. We will do everything we can to make the process of organising a funeral as stress-free as possible – allowing you to grieve for your loved one and keep their memory alive.
Whether you want to adorn the coffin with colourful sprays, gorgeous bouquets, letters or shaped tributes, we’re more than happy to take care of the floral arrangements on your behalf. We can also care for flowers at our funeral home close to Caldicot until the day of the funeral, so feel free to have them sent to us.
You’ll never forget your loved one, but having a memory teddy made out of their favourite garment is a lovely gesture – something that will bring comfort and be treasured forever.
Fingerprint jewellery is also available in silver, gold and rose gold, and we can create necklaces pendants, rings, cufflinks and charms from cremated ashes to make your memories eternal.
We offer a full masonry service too, offering a permanent symbol of remembrance where you can come to pray and lay flowers. You can choose the shape and type of stone for the headstone as well as the beautiful inscription and font.
Funeral plans
Given how expensive funerals are these days, taking out a funeral plan is a sensible thing to do.
We provide pre-paid funeral plans from Golden Leaves which allow you to pay for your funeral at today’s rate – regardless of inflation. You can either pay for it in one upfront payment or spread the cost with affordable monthly instalments.
By planning your own funeral, you can have your say on every aspect of the service (even the type of service you want – whether it be a burial or cremation). This means your loved ones won’t be required to make any difficult decisions when you pass away, and the costs will have been covered by yourself – saving them the financial heartache.
If you’d like to make plans for your funeral, our funeral directors close to Caldicot will be happy to assist.
