In addition to the cost of appointing a funeral director and the cremation or burial costs, there will be other funeral costs that depend on what kind of funeral you and your loved ones choose to arrange. Here are some optional extras:
Floral tributes
Memorial headstones and plaques
Order of service sheets (if you arrange a service)
An urn (for a cremation)
Newspaper / online tributes or announcements
Hiring an organist
A dove release or other unique tributes.
Additionally, some of the more expensive optional funeral costs include purchasing a burial plot and/or opening an existing grave, or choosing a casket instead of a coffin.
