🖤🐴 A timeless farewell 🐴🖤

There’s something deeply moving about a horse-drawn procession — quiet, steady and full of dignity. Today we had the honour of providing this traditional tribute, giving family and friends time to pause and reflect during a very meaningful journey.

Every farewell is unique, and it is our privilege to help families create a service that truly feels right for their loved one.

Here is a picture of Ronnie and Reggie, posing for their picture 📸
