Burial and church funeral services in Sydney

A traditional farewell,
coordinated with care

From the church or chapel through to the graveside, we manage every detail of a full burial service, so your family can be present with one another rather than the logistics.

What is a burial service?

A burial service is a traditional funeral where your loved one is laid to rest in a cemetery or lawn. It usually includes a service beforehand, in a church, our chapel or at the graveside, followed by the committal. It is the most complete of the farewells we arrange, carrying a long tradition of gathering, remembering and laying someone to rest with honour.

‍

We coordinate every part of it, and we work closely with churches and clergy across the region, so a religious service is handled with the reverence it deserves.

As traditional or as personal as you wish

For many families a burial follows the customs of their faith, and we are experienced in coordinating Catholic and other religious services with the church and clergy. For others it is shaped entirely around the person. Either way, we build the day around what matters to you.

If there are particular traditions, readings or cultural elements that are important, tell us, and we will make sure they are honoured properly.
