Many families choose traditional funerals because they provide a respectful service rooted in custom and familiarity. These ceremonies often bring comfort, offering a structure that feels meaningful at a time of loss. At Arthur Peake & Sons, we give you the freedom to personalise the arrangements, so the funeral truly reflects the wishes of your loved one. If you would like to include more modern touches alongside tradition, we can help you achieve this.
A traditional funeral service usually includes several key elements:
Our team will guide you through each step, making the arrangements clear and manageable, while offering ongoing support during this difficult time.
Some families prefer to make environmentally conscious choices when arranging a service. We can provide eco funerals, which follow the structure of a traditional service but with reduced impact on the environment. Options can include a wicker or cardboard coffin, the absence of funeral cars, and alternatives to printed service sheets. If this is something you wish to consider, we will be happy to explain the choices available.
On the day itself, the funeral cortege will usually begin with the hearse travelling to the place of ceremony, followed by limousines for close family. Bearers will carry the coffin into the service, where family and friends may share eulogies, readings, hymns, or music. For burials, the service will conclude at the graveside, giving loved ones the chance to say a final farewell.
