What customers say
Based on genuine customer reviews
In Adelaide, Personalised Funerals handled the farewell arrangements for two parents, with Debbie and Clayton Scott named in accounts of both services. The viewing and cremation were arranged as the families wished, and the ceremonies were shaped around each individual, which those writing describe as beautiful and fitting tributes.
Kindness, patience and consideration from Deb and Clayton run through both accounts, along with a friendly and professional approach. Little extra touches were appreciated during a difficult time, and no pressure to spend beyond what was wanted was experienced. The cost was considered reasonable for the care given, and the team is thanked by name for facilitating individualised services for a father and, later, a mother.

Have said goodbye to Dad and now Mum, Deb and Clayton Scott are a fantastic team that facilitated beautiful individualised services for my parents. Cannot be more grateful for their kind, friendly and professional service they provided.
We sadly said goodbye to our Dad today and were very happy with the viewing and cremation arranged by Personalised funerals. Debbie and Clayton have been so patient, kind and considerate throughout the whole process, providing a lot of little touches we really appreciated. No pressure selling or anything like that. A real caring and personalised service at a good price. Highly recommended. Thank you Debbie and Clayton!
