How much does a funeral cost in Stockport?
The typical cost of funerals in Stockport typically sits around £2342 with burial constituting 25% and cremation accounting for 75% of the amount of funerals taking place in Stockport. 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 'Your Ceremony With Tracey Eastwood' 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 Flower Emporium (Located on 9 Moorside Road, Heaton Moor, STOCKPORT SK4 4DT, Greater Manchester) typically charge approximately between £86 up to £461 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 T N Powell, The Jewellers or visiting their store at 2 ARDEN WALK, MERSEYWAY, Stockport.
