What is an Attended Funeral?

It offers a meaningful opportunity for family and friends to gather, honour, and celebrate a life lived. Located in the heart of Bristol, our team is committed to providing compassionate and bespoke services that cater to your specific needs during this difficult time.

An attended funeral is a service where family, friends, and loved ones come together to pay their respects to the departed. Unlike unattended or direct cremation services, attended funerals allow for a more personal and communal experience, offering a time and space for those left behind to find comfort and support in one another.

 

Our Attended Funeral Services

At Brunel Funeral Directors, we offer a range of options to suit your preferences and budget. Our attended funerals in Bristol include:

  • Personal consultation: We begin with a personal consultation to understand your needs, preferences, and the unique personality of your loved one. This ensures that the service we arrange truly reflects their life and legacy.
  • Customised funeral service: From traditional religious ceremonies to more contemporary and bespoke services, we cater to a variety of cultural, spiritual, and personal preferences. Our team will assist in planning every detail, from arranging transportation to floral tributes, and other services to suit your needs.
  • Memorialisation options: We provide a variety of memorialisation options, including keepsakes, personalised service sheets, and online memorials, allowing you to keep the memory of your loved one alive.
  • 24/7 support: We understand that losing a loved one is never easy, which is why our support doesn’t end after the funeral service. Our team is available 24/7 to provide ongoing assistance and advice whenever you need it.

From the day my family stepped into your office, you showed them full support and made them feel at ease. I would like to thank Craig and Louise & all the other staff for the support and comfort you gave myself and my family. Every bit of detailed we asked for whilst our mother was in your care you done for us all above and beyond. We cannot thank you all enough. X

We were recommended Brunel, by family friends, when my mother-in-law passed away. From the very start Louise and Chris led my husband and I with kindness, understanding and professionalism. Nothing was too much trouble and what is a difficult period, was made far less stressful with their help. We can highly recommend Brunel and are thankful they were recommended to us!

From the moment we entered Brunel we felt at ease. Craig was kind, considerate and very professional. He assured us there was no rush and gave us the time we needed over the next few weeks to arrange my mum's funeral how I wanted it. On the day, Chris and his colleagues arrived in plenty of time and were very helpful and patient and helped us fit a car seat. I cannot recommend them highly enough, they made a very hard day easier.

I would highly recommend Brunel Independent as Louise made it feel very personal and was excellent at explaining each stage of this daunting process, without being intrusive in any way. The team can arrange practically anything you would like, which helped to make it feel as comfortable as it could do on the day, where Chris and the team were amazing. Thank you.

I’m so glad I chose this company following the death of my grandson . They helped us deal with his death with such empathy and kindness. Nothing was too much trouble and they made us feel comfortable and at ease . Each and every member of the team acted at all times with the utmost professionalism and were never surprised at the requests that we made no matter how strange ! We chose a non religious ceremony and had a celebrant Joss who was amazing . I would not hesitate to use them again if I ever have the misfortune to have to arrange another funeral a big thank you to Louise Chris and Craig xxx
