How much does a funeral cost in Alloa?
The typical cost of funerals in Alloa typically sits around £2500 up to £4500 with burial constituting 22% and cremation accounting for 78% of the amount of funerals taking place in Alloa. However, the actual expense for a family can vary based on specific requirements and choices. For instance, if a family prefers a local celebrant, such as 'Legacy Celebrant' found on thecelebrantdirectory.co.uk, rather than a minister or pastor, the cost would be higher.
When calculating the overall expenses of a funeral, it is important to take into account the additional cost of funeral flowers. Local florists like Flowers By Arrangement (Located on 13 Mill Street, ALLOA FK10 1DT, Clackmannanshire) or Nicholson Flowers (Phone number 07375 238 110) typically charge approximately between £93 up to £464 for funeral flower arrangements.
Even though funeral jewellery, like a cremation necklace, is not typically considered a direct expense of a funeral, it does add to the overall cost. To obtain pricing information about funeral jewellery, we suggest reaching out to Dunbar the Jewellers or visiting their store at 39 Mill Street, Alloa.
