How much does a funeral cost in Newbury?

The typical cost of funerals in Newbury typically sits around £2500 up to £4500 with burial constituting 16% and cremation accounting for 84% of the amount of funerals taking place in Newbury. 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 'The Perfect 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 Sumo Flowers (Located on 28 Maple Crescent, NEWBURY RG14 1LL, Berkshire) or Willow and Blooms (Phone number 01635 528900) typically charge approximately between £100 up to £468 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 Oberon Jewellery or visiting their store at Gloucester Road, Newbury.
