When faced with the loss of a loved one, the planning and financial aspects of arranging a funeral can often be an overwhelming concern. At Silkwood Funerals, located in Dianella, Perth, Western Australia, we understand the importance of offering transparent and compassionate guidance during these difficult times.
Under the caring leadership of Principal Julie Whately, Silkwood Funerals stands firm with the promise to be here when you need us most. We are committed to providing you with the details necessary to make informed decisions in the moments that matter. In this blog post, we will explore the various factors that contribute to the cost of a funeral in Perth, Western Australia, and share some of the feedback we have received from our valued clients.
1. Service Type: Burials vs. Cremations
The choice between burial and cremation often affects the overall cost. Burials may include expenses for the plot, headstone, and related services, while cremations can be a more economical choice. Silkwood Funerals offers both funeral options, allowing families to select the one that best aligns with their beliefs, traditions, and budget.
2. Ceremony and Venue
The venue and type of ceremony (religious, non-religious, or memorial) can also affect the cost. Whether you desire an intimate gathering or a more extensive celebration of life, our team will guide you through the various possibilities to suit your needs and budget.
3. Coffin or Casket Selection
Coffin and casket selections range in materials and designs. Our experienced funeral directors can provide various options to match your aesthetic preferences and financial considerations.
4. Additional Services
From floral arrangements to memorial booklets, audio-visual presentations, and transportation, additional services can enhance the remembrance experience. We are committed to providing these services according to your wishes, keeping costs transparent and fair.
5. Testimonials from Past Clients
Hearing from others who have experienced our service can offer comfort and confidence. One of our clients, Jacqui & Steve from Mt Lawley, shared:
“I just wanted to say thank you for helping us to arrange our son’s Funeral… My son got the most beautiful send-off and we cannot thank you enough.”
In another heartfelt note, Denise Kemp expressed:
“I would like to thank you most sincerely for your professionalism and sense of humour which made the whole process of the funeral (which I was dreading) something that brightened our hearts.”
6. Personalised and Compassionate Guidance
At Silkwood Funerals, we believe that no two funerals should be the same. Every life is unique, and so should be the farewell. We offer personalized planning to ensure that the ceremony reflects the individual’s personality and life story, all within a reasonable budget.
