Bespoke Funerals

Celebrate the life of your loved one with bespoke funeral services from A. France & Son. Every life is unique and that’s why many families choose to say farewell to their loved one in a meaningful and personal way.

Whether your beloved was a football fan or a nature lover, bespoke funerals can incorporate passions or hobbies that were important to your dearly departed, and show off their character in a moving way.

We are able to arrange a secular officiant for you if this is what you require.
