That’s why we have collected some of the most beautiful memorial ideas for your selection, helping you choose the perfect way to remember your loved one. With options ranging from traditional urns to custom-made jewellery, there is something special for everyone.

Traditional memorials

Whether you are lying your loved one to rest in a cemetery (definition - land this is specifically designated as a burial ground) or graveyard, (which primarily refers to a burial ground within a churchyard) headstones, gravestones and plaques are the traditional memorial methods.

Traditional memorial options and suggestions

• Headstones - tombstone
• Memorial plaques - stone, bronze, glass
• Monuments
• Memorial photo frame
• Cremation urns

Looking for something special and unique to honour your loved one?

• Another option is erecting a park bench and plaque - you will require permission from your local council should you choose this memorial.
• Honouring someone with a song or poem - this memorial can be with you at all times, and could be read at the service.
• Create a scrapbook or special keepsake box, will items from your loved one.
• Plant a tree - you may need to gain permission from your local council.
• A donation to a charity - in turn, the charity may make special mention of your loved one, either in their publications or website.
• Name a star after your loved one.
• Custom jewellery - often family members will have their loved one’s jewellery re-crafted into pieces which can be worn in memoriam every day.

We also offer memorials for your much-loved pet: After all, our pets are a big part of our family and life and paying tribute to them and the impact they have in our lives is common for an owner to do.
