Mitch and the team at the North Melbourne branch were absolutely brilliant. It was my first time experience of making funeral arrangements and Mitch guided me through each step with compassion and professionalism. Many who attended my father's funeral also commented on Mitch's lovely manner. Overall, we were provided with individualist, respectful care. I highly recommend Gardenia Funerals. Thank you team!

I can't thank Gardenia Funerals, especially Mitch and Dom, for helping my family through what has been an emotional and challenging journey. Their compassion, efficiency and professionalism coupled with their caring and friendly attitude was very welcome and appreciated. They made our tribute and memorial day run smoothly and seamlessly.

Thank you to the wonderful team at Gardenia funerals for the expert care and compassion you provided to me and my family after the passing of my beautiful mother. From the first emotional phone call to Karen, to Dom welcoming me and my family at the funeral home to Mitch, our funeral director who arranged everything, all were super lovely. Mitch was amazing, very caring and respectful, efficiently and expertly made arrangements for my mother's funeral, great communicator and very professional but warm at the same time. Highly recommend.

We had the privilege of Mitch organising our funeral for my father in law. He made what was a very sad time for the family run seamlessly and he got our sense of humour. Adding a few little touches that we absolutely loved. Without us asking, but because he was truely listening to how we were explaining our loved one. Professionalism, communication & compassion was 10/10

Dom and the team at Gardenia Funerals provided such care, attention to detail and respect throughout the whole process. As someone organising a funeral for the first time, the process was overwhelming at first. After engaging with a few other funeral homes, I called Gardenia Funerals, and they immediately stood out from the get go with all of the traits mentioned above. I can't thank them enough for making this so easy and without cutting any corners - It was such a relief to know I could trust my mums funeral to be handled properly, as well as with dignity and care. Thank you again to Dom and the team; you truly went above and beyond.

Michael organised both my brother’s and my Nonna’s funerals with such love, care, and compassion. He made us feel completely supported during incredibly difficult times and treated our family as if we were his own. I can’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you!

Mitch and the team at Gardenia have been absolutely wonderful during one of the most difficult times in our lives. From the very first phone call, we knew Gardenia were the right fit. Mitch took the time to get to know us, and our mum, ensuring her service was the most perfect representation of her. Miley and Monty are 5 star employees- we are so grateful for the pats and puppy kisses when planning Mum’s funeral. The interactive website allowed Mum to look at coffins, caskets and flower combinations, giving her some control in her final weeks. We are forever grateful to Gardenia. Thanks for the hugs Mitch- 10/10 💕
