How much does a funeral cost in Rayleigh?
The typical cost of funerals in Rayleigh typically sits around £2500 up to £4500 with burial constituting 19% and cremation accounting for 81% of the amount of funerals taking place in Rayleigh. 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 'Vince Hawkes Rustic 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 Blume Lifestyle (Located on 25 High Street, RAYLEIGH SS6 7EW, Essex) or Just Because Florist (Phone number 01268 777138) typically charge approximately between £94 up to £454 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 Mandy's Memories or visiting their store at 5 Navestock Close, Rayleigh.
