How much does a funeral cost in Dewsbury?

The typical cost of funerals in Dewsbury typically sits around £3129 with burial constituting 22% and cremation accounting for 78% of the amount of funerals taking place in Dewsbury. 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 'True To You Celebrancy' 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 Mrs Bouquets (Located on 34/35 Cloth Hall Street, DEWSBURY WF13 1QE, West Yorkshire) or Lilies Florist (Phone number 01924 462390) typically charge approximately between £99 up to £453 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 John Greenwood or visiting their store at 3 Church Street, Dewsbury.
