Small funerals (up to 40 people) can be arranged to take place at Bewley’s tastefully decorated service rooms at Melksham or Devizes, or the firm can arrange cremations, burials and memorial services for all denominations at venues anywhere in the surrounding area. When a death occurs Bewleys take the deceased into their care and make all the preparations for the funeral, from providing a casket and floral tributes to designing and printing the order of service, and creating and installing a memorial stone. Bewleys are happy to undertake any sort of funeral no matter how unique, including environmentally friendly natural and woodland burials at special grave sites in the local area, which are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to traditional funerals. Besides arranging funerals Bewleys also offers pre-paid funeral plans that allow you to plan and pay for your funeral in advance, lessening the burden for your loved ones when the time comes, giving you peace of mind for the future.
