Clear and straightforward fees
I believe it is important for you to know from the outset what my services will cost.
The fees below cover the time spent with you, preparation and writing, liaison with others involved and my support on the day, where applicable.
Price list
Funeral ceremony

Travel and additional costs
A few practical details
My fees include travel for one family meeting and the ceremony within the areas I normally cover: Croxley Green, Rickmansworth, Watford, St Albans, Aylesbury, Milton Keynes.
Additional journeys or travel outside these areas may incur a further charge, which will always be agreed with you in advance.
If you ask me to arrange or purchase anything that is not included within my fee, I will explain the cost and obtain your agreement before going ahead.
Double crematorium slots and ceremonies held on bank holidays will be quoted separately.
