Coffins and Caskets in Chesham

The decision on the final resting place for your loved one can be a difficult one to make. Whether the choice made is based on personal preferences, cultural traditions, budget considerations or the preference of an eco-friendly option, the supportive team here at T.A. Ellement are always ready to explain and guide when it comes to choosing a coffin or casket.

Our team will talk you through our selection of coffins and caskets which includes traditional solid wood and veneer, or eco-friendly alternative and more sustainable options such as willow, bamboo or even a biodegradable material.

 

If you’d prefer to consult with family members before making a decision, we can provide a range of brochures to detail our selection of coffins and caskets, or for a more specific requirement, please talk to our knowledgeable team.

Woodland Burials in Chesham

For those wishing to become part of the natural cycle after their death, T.A. Ellement will help you understand the options and processes when opting for a natural or woodland burial. This includes sourcing local natural burial grounds as well as the type of ceremony, whether a simple, reflective approach or a more traditional formal one.

Talk to the knowledgeable, yet empathetic team at T.A. Ellement to arrange a personalized, natural funeral in serene outdoor settings such as woodlands or at a designated natural burial site. We bring more than 135 years of experience as funeral directors to each funeral.

We can supply a choice of more sustainable, eco-friendly coffins as more people seek natural ways to say goodbye to their loved ones.

Alternatively, we can organise for the ashes to be placed into a bamboo or willow urn before being interred in a woodland site after a cremation funeral.

Chapel of Rest in Chesham

Following a loved one’s passing it may be some time before the funeral service can take place. At T.A. Ellement we offer a Chapel of Rest, where family members and other visitors can spend time in a tranquil, contemplative room to pay their last respects.

Our friendly staff are here to help coordinate visits for you to reflect in the calmness of our chapel, which offers a bridge between life and the final farewell.

Memorials in Chesham

Funeral memorials are lasting tributes to those loved ones we have lost to preserve cherished memories. There are a wide variety of memorials options to choose from such as traditional headstones and memorial or commemorative plaques, living memorials whereby trees are planted, the creation of a memorial garden or dedicating a bench to the legacy of someone. Or you can opt for more custom creations such as jewellery, engravings and sculptures.

Should you choose a memorial service to remember, honour and celebrate the life of a lost one which is distinct from the funeral itself, whether to mark the scattering of ashes or a post-funeral ceremony to celebrate a life well lived, our funeral directors are here to help organize this for you.

T.A. Ellement has a vast amount of understanding as funeral directors and are pleased to be of assistance wherever we can. Please talk to us about your plans or specific requests.

Direct Cremation specialists in Chesham

Direct cremations in Chesham are becoming a more popular approach to funeral arrangements for those who would rather not have a formal service.  A direct cremation is a more modern, simple and informal approach where your body is entrusted to us as funeral directors to arrange a private cremation which is only attended by officials; 4 pull bearers and a funeral director along with our hearse. It is a stress-free and respectful process to allow you to focus on remembering your loved one in your own way and time. We never judge our clients that choose this option.

To remain discreet, we never use trolleys or ambulances.

As an alternative, a memorial service is often arranged at later date to celebrate the life of a lost one.

Funeral Cars and Flowers in Chesham

Funeral flowers and floral tributes are a significant and heartfelt part of honouring the lives of loved ones we have lost.  Our in-house florist can create the most impressive floral arrangements including wreaths, posies and other floral and custom tributes to express the love and remembrance of someone’s life. They can offer guidance and advice for those that would like assistance with more specific or custom designs.

Our range of funeral cars include traditional funeral hearses, horse-drawn hearses to more unique and bespoke vehicles such as Fire Engine hearses, Motorbike hearses and many more. Please see our Hearses & Bespoke Funeral Cars page for more details. These can be viewed by prior arrangement with our dedicated team.

Funeral Costs and Pre-paid Plans in Chesham

To prepare and lessen the financial burden on those left behind, a pre-paid funeral plan is a thoughtful way to provide peace of mind that someone’s funeral wishes and plans are respected.

We offer a range of pre-paid funeral plans that enable you to cover all costs, as well as leave instructions about the service itself.  T.A. Ellement are here to listen, advise, and will do everything we can to provide you with peace of mind about the future as well as relieving the pressure on your family on making these decisions at a later stage.
