We cannot thank Emily enough for the care, compassion and professionalism she showed in organising the funeral for my beloved mum. From the very beginning, everything was handled with such sensitivity and understanding.
Emily was absolutely wonderful. She guided us through every step with great empathy, paying attention to even the finest detail and making what is such a difficult time feel much more manageable.
The flowers were also absolutely beautiful. The large spray made with pink Avalanche roses was simply stunning and so many people commented on how lovely it was. We received countless compliments and it really was a very special tribute!
On the day itself, everything ran beautifully and exactly as we had hoped. We are truly grateful to Emily and the whole team for their kindness, support and outstanding care at such a difficult time.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the all the team for their care, support and understanding during a very difficult time for us. In particular, we have to thank Emily, who guided us through the whole process in a very calm and attentive manner. She helped us make informed choices, and gave us the time and space to think our decisions through. Nothing was a problem for her, and if she couldn't answer a question, she took the time to find it out for us. Everything on the day went very smoothly, just as planned, and it was reassuring to know the team were there to support if needed. Every aspect was handled with great dignity and in a very professional manner.

The AW Lymn team in West Bridgford were amazing! They walked us through all the arrangements that needed to be made and went out of their way to give us the burial date and time that worked best for us. They provided us with a really lovely day in the chapel of rest and the funeral day went without any problems at all. I would strongly recommend them and the services that they provide.

5Jason Watkins27th Jan 2026
From our very first contact, Emily at Lymn’s West Bridgford office was outstanding. She was unfailingly kind, considerate and calm, and guided us through an incredibly difficult time with real sensitivity and professionalism. Nothing ever felt rushed or overlooked, and her communication throughout was clear, reassuring and thoughtful.
On the day of the funeral, Edward and his team were exceptional. Their quiet presence, care and attention ensured everything ran seamlessly from the service through to the crematorium, allowing us to focus fully on saying goodbye, knowing every detail was being taken care of.
A special thank you also to Andrew and his team for the evening before the service, when my mother was welcomed into the church. It was handled with great dignity and respect, and meant a great deal to our family.
Finally, thank you to Russell, our bus driver, who shuttled guests between the church, the crematorium and the wake. His patience, good humour and calm presence were genuinely appreciated.
A.W. Lymn handled every aspect with dignity and professionalism. I am deeply grateful to everyone involved, and especially to Emily, whose compassion and care made a very difficult time easier to bear. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
A.W. Lymn, West Bridgford Team replied
Thank you, Jason for such a kind and detailed review! The entire team were glad to be of service to you and ensure the day, and evening before, went smoothly so you and your family could focus on saying your final farewell.
