Our Funeral Services
At Peterson Funeral Directors, we offer a range of funeral services to suit different wishes, beliefs and budgets. We understand that every family is different, and every farewell should be handled with care, dignity and respect.
Whether you are looking for a traditional funeral, cremation, unattended funeral or a more personalised arrangement, we are here to guide you clearly and support you at every stage. From the moment your loved one comes into our care, they will be treated with the highest level of professionalism, compassion and dignity.
Traditional Funerals
A traditional funeral gives families the time and structure to say goodbye in a meaningful and respectful way. For many people, this offers comfort through familiarity, ceremony and the opportunity to gather together in remembrance.
We will help you arrange every aspect of the service, including transport, timings, music, readings, officiants, printed materials and any personal touches you may wish to include. Whether you would prefer a religious or non-religious service, a simple arrangement or something more detailed, we will ensure everything is handled with care and attention throughout.
Our role is to make the process as clear and supportive as possible, while ensuring your loved one remains in dignified and professional care at all times.
Cremation Services
We offer professional guidance and full support for families choosing cremation, helping you make the necessary arrangements clearly, sensitively and with complete peace of mind.
A cremation service can be arranged in many different ways, from a simple and private ceremony to a more personal or traditional funeral service. We will talk you through the options available, explain the steps involved, and help you choose an arrangement that feels right for your family and for the person being remembered.
Throughout the process, your loved one will remain in our care and will be looked after with dignity, professionalism and respect.
Direct Cremation
Direct cremation is a simple and dignified option for families who would prefer a private cremation without a formal funeral service beforehand. This can be the right choice for those who would rather hold a separate personal remembrance in their own time, or who would prefer a more straightforward arrangement.
We will guide you through the process clearly and respectfully, ensuring that all arrangements are handled professionally and that your loved one is cared for properly at every stage. Although the service itself is simpler in structure, the level of care, dignity and attention remains exactly the same.
Unattended Funerals
An unattended funeral is a respectful and straightforward option where the committal takes place without family or friends present. Some families choose this because they would prefer a private gathering or memorial afterwards, while others may feel it is the most suitable arrangement for personal, practical or financial reasons.
We understand that this can still be an emotional decision, and we approach it with the same level of compassion, professionalism and dignity as any other funeral service. Your loved one will remain in our care throughout, and every part of the arrangement will be handled respectfully and discreetly.
If you are considering an unattended funeral, we will explain the process clearly and help you decide whether it is the right choice for your family.
Bespoke Funeral Arrangements
For families who would like a more personal service, we can help create bespoke funeral arrangements that reflect the life, character and wishes of their loved one.
This may include special routes, favourite music, personalised printed materials, floral choices, vehicle preferences, dove releases, readings, visual tributes or other meaningful touches. We understand how important these details can be, and we will work closely with you to create a farewell that feels personal, respectful and fitting.
Every bespoke arrangement is handled with the same professional care and attention, ensuring both the practical and personal aspects are looked after properly.
Care and Guidance Throughout
From the moment your loved one comes into our care, we are committed to treating them with dignity, respect and professionalism. We know how important trust is at such a difficult time, and we take that responsibility very seriously.
We are here not only to arrange the funeral itself, but also to provide clear guidance, practical support and reassurance throughout the process, helping families feel informed and supported when they need it most.
Funeral Vehicles
We offer a range of funeral vehicles to suit different preferences and arrangements, including hearses, limousines and horse-drawn carriage options where required.
The choice of vehicles can play an important part in the overall service, and we will be happy to discuss the options available with you. Whether you would prefer a more traditional arrangement or something with a more distinctive personal touch, we can help you choose the most appropriate vehicles for the funeral you are planning.
As with every part of our service, these arrangements will be handled carefully, professionally and with full respect for your wishes.
