★★★★★ I felt very confident with how my husband's funeral was managed. All the team at AV Band were so respectful and caring. They showed me so much kindness during the very difficult time. Chantelle made it all come together ❤️
★★★★★ At such a difficult and emotional time Shelley and Chantelle at AV Band contacted us and reassuringly guided us through all the necessary plans. They have been a massive help and they paired us up with the perfect celebrant. Everybody who attended said how well planned the celebration was for my father's life.
★★★★★ AV Band in St John's recently dealt with my late Mum's funeral. Shelley and Chantelle were professional, warm, empathetic and they made a traumatic experience as painless as possible.
i can't recommend them highly enough.
★★★★★ Would like to say a massive thank you to all the staff at the St.Johns branch from the family of Jenny Dean. Our beloved Jen's service was beautiful and above our expectations. A special mention for Chantelle's professionalism and support during this difficult time and for Tina King for her delivery of the Service. Thank you.
★★★★★ Shelly at the St John's branch made things so easy to arrange my late mother's pure cremation. Kind, Caring & Compassionate. Thank you!
