How much does a funeral cost in Rotherham?

The typical cost of funerals in Rotherham typically sits around £3411 with burial constituting 15% and cremation accounting for 85% of the amount of funerals taking place in Rotherham. 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 White Rose 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 Stems Floral Design (Located on 3 All Saints Square, , ROTHERHAM S60 1PW, South Yorkshire) or Urban Petals (Phone number 01709 382819) typically charge approximately between £99 up to £475 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 Rachels at Lees of Leeds or visiting their store at 49 Market Hall, Howard Street, Rotherham.
