What people say

★★★★★
I cannot recommend Mark Wait Funeral Services enough. They were professional, considerate and caring throughout the whole process. Kelsey was wonderful and nothing was too much trouble for her. She gently guided me through an incredibly difficult time with kindness and understanding. Thank you for helping create such a lovely send off for Mum.
★★★★★
Mark and team did such a great job for my mum's funeral arrangements. Every interaction with them from start to finish was professional and thoughtful. They helped us choose all of the best options and the day itself went perfectly - a true celebration of my mum's life. We cannot thank them enough and would strongly recommend others to use their services.
★★★★★
Id give a higher review if I could, nothing prepares you for grief, I went into it not knowing anything about planning a funeral mark was recommended by a friend, and from the first phone call and quotes to the actual day of the funeral he has been outstanding so caring and compassionate towards us was on the other end of the phone anytime we needed advice, even helped with little added touches at the funeral to make it special to the guests. Can't thank this company enough for how brilliant & professional they were with my mam. From Chelsea & Georgia ❤️

★★★★★
A truly exceptional level of service from Mark and his team. I can’t recommend them highly enough. From initial contact through to final follow up after our service Mark’s level of care, thoroughness and professionalism was exceptional. The facilities at the chapel of rest were excellent and Amanda’s help while Mum made her last visit to see Dad was thoughful and helpful. Mark and team were always prompt to respond to calls and questions and made sure arrangements were always clear. I can’t thank them enough for the quality of support and service provided at a difficult time after the loss
