Words don't do Jonathan Terry and his team justice, everyone we've dealt with there has been friendly, polite and respectful and made what is a difficult time that little bit easier. Would especially like to thank Thomas who looked after us and helped all the way through and Matthew Smith who was our celebrant.

We were looked after with professionalism from the start and all our questions were answered with speed.
The service was exceptional and the after care was brilliant in that were were dropped at the refreshments wake afterwards and escorted to and from the car with umbrellas due to the weather. A nice touch !

We would just like to say that we have nothing but praise for the care, and support we were given by Jonathan Terry's team.
They made a very difficult time go well.
They have helped us with the funerals of both our parents over the last few years and have been so kind and helpful.
Would recommend their services to anyone who was in our position
3Rachel Creighton 18th Feb 2025
The people that work there are friendly enough but I seemed to have to chase them quite a lot. Photos got lost and had to be re-submitted, details from the celebrant couldn’t be found so I had to chase the celebrant and she’d sent them 2 weeks prior. I had to keep chasing on the music too. At a time that is stressful enough I could have done with it all being a bit smoother on the run up. Thankfully the day itself went without hitch but unfortunately we were all quite anxious until it was over!
