How much does a funeral cost in Southport?

The typical cost of funerals in Southport typically sits around £2500 up to £4500 with burial constituting 22% and cremation accounting for 78% of the amount of funerals taking place in Southport. 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 'Unique Celebrant Ceremonies' 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 Tom Hodge Florist (Located on 1b Marshside Road, SOUTHPORT PR9 9TL, Merseyside) or Sweeney's Florist (Phone number 01704 225359) typically charge approximately between £85 up to £472 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 Medusa Gems Gift & Crystal Shop or visiting their store at 1 Wayfarers Arcade, 311 Lord Street, Southport.
