WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED

It’s important to understand what isn’t included in The Magnolia Plan. This pre-planned cremation does not include:

Doctor’s fees*
Embalming, memorial or headstone, flowers, catering/wake
Viewing of the deceased
A hearse
Limousine for family/mourners
Funeral procession from home/funeral home to a service location
Co-ordination of any flowers or tributes and managing collection and payments of any charitable donations

Costs associated with changes in regulations, tax, laws or generally accepted practice, which result in additional costs or affect the conduct of the funeral

Prepaid Plan Terms & Conditions

* Medical certification fees. For deaths where a coroner investigation is required, there are no medical certifications fees. Also, changes to legislation in May 2015 mean there will no longer be a charge for a medical certification for any deaths registered in Scotland. Similar legal changes are being considered for the rest of the UK, so we do not include provision for these fees in our Plans. If the funeral takes place outside of Scotland, and a coroner is not involved, then if applicable, the medical certification fees should be paid by the next of kin or personal representative, when arranging the funeral

What our customers say

Our customer experience is very important to us and we strive to deliver a high quality service every time

apart from a couple of missed calls the whole service was very good indeed. It was easy to contact them and very clear on what was part of the package. They offered exactly what I needed I would recommend them and have already done so on more than one occasion.

Kate on the phone was an absolute star - she put up with me asking questions and gave great advice. I rang round to find the best deal but it was Kate who convinced me to go with you.

I was so surprised by the uncomplicated and straightforward process that I had to phone back to make sure I had got things right. It takes away all the intricate ins and outs of having to book a funeral at the Funeral Directors, which would have been left for a family member to do, hence me making my own arrangments. There is a good saving moneywise but it's the knowledge that I'm not leaving things for others to do. I would recommend this service to anyone who wants to arrange their own funeral.
