Coffins and Caskets in Gerrards Cross

Making decisions that relate to a loved one’s final resting place can be difficult at such an emotional time.  Choices can be based on personal preferences, cultural traditions as well as budget considerations or eco-friendly options too. T.A. Ellement supportive staff are always ready to explain and guide when it comes to choosing such things as a coffin or casket.

We offer a selection of coffins and caskets that includes traditional solid wood and veneer or, for more of an environmentally aware and sustainable choice, you may opt for willow, bamboo or even a biodegradable material.

So that you have time to choose and consult with family members, we provide a range of brochures to detail our selection or for a more specific requirement, please talk to our knowledgeable team.

Woodland Burials in Gerrards Cross

For those wishing to opt for a more natural burial, T.A. Ellement can talk you through the arrangements of a woodland burial, or green burials as they are also known, and your options as regards sourcing a designated local natural resting place as well as the type of ceremony, be it formal or a more simple, reflective approach.

With more than 135 years of experience as funeral directors, the T.A. Ellement staff can arrange a personalised, meaningful alternative funeral in woodlands or a designated natural burial site to be surrounded by the beauty of nature.

With nature in mind, we can supply a choice of eco-friendly coffins to mark a compassionate and sustainable way to honour your loved one whilst also caring for our planet.

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

Chapel of Rest in Gerrards Cross

T.A. Ellement’s Chapel of Rest offers a bridge between life and the final farewell. Our chapel provides a tranquil and contemplative space that offers a peaceful ambiance where family members and other visitors can spend a few moments paying their respects.

Our friendly staff are here to help coordinate visits for you to reflect in the calmness of our chapel.

Memorials in Gerrards Cross

Funeral memorials are lasting tributes to those loved ones we have lost ranging from traditional headstones and memorial or commemorative plaques, living memorials whereby trees are planted, a memorial garden is created or dedicating a bench to the legacy of someone to more custom creations such as jewellery, engravings and sculptures. Please speak to our team to find out more.

Memorial services to remember, honour and celebrate the lives of lost ones are 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.

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

Direct Cremation Specialists in Gerrards Cross

Direct cremations in Gerrards Cross are becoming a more popular and modern approach to funeral arrangements.  A direct cremation is a simple, informal approach whereby your body is entrusted to us as funeral directors to arrange a private cremation, only attended by officials. Our Hearse will leave from our funeral home to the cremation or Cemetery along with 4 pull bearers and a funeral director. This option is a suitable choice for those who would rather not have a formal service and we will never judge those that choose this approach.

We are always respectful, ensure discretion and never use trolleys or ambulances.

As an alternative, a memorial service is often arranged later.

Funeral Cars and Flowers in Gerrards Cross

Funeral flowers hold a special place in commemorating 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. They will listen to your requirements or offer guidance and advice for those that would like assistance with more custom designs.

Our range of funeral cars and bespoke funeral vehicles are available to view by prior arrangement with our dedicated team. These range from traditional funeral hearses, including a horse-drawn hearse to more unique vehicles such as Fire Engine hearses, Motorbike hearses and many more. Please see our Hearses & Bespoke Funeral Cars page for more details.
