W2016

As a Father's Day present, Rohan polished my Dad's old Holden Statesman and brought it 'back to life'. He did such a fastidious job inside and out that he was approached by the neighbours for his details. I already have him booked in to polish my car now!

I was fortunate that Carly and Greenhaven Funerals were recommended to me by a friend, because it was the best advice I took at a very stressful time, for a wonderful send off for my wife.

Carly listened very carefully to my requirements for the funeral and paid attention to all of the details. We wanted a burial first and a farewell ceremony afterwards at another venue and nothing was a problem.

The details were very important to me, especially as my wife and I had discussed these details years ago and she wanted a joyful celebration. We wanted smiles, laughing and humour and Carly’s team respected our wishes and encouraged people to be joyful.

Carly’s suggestion to hold the farewell ceremony at the Sandringham Yacht Club with the added peace and calm of the ocean in the background, made me happy, at a very sad time.

When small unforeseen issues arose, Carly kept me informed and provided me options. Carly was not fazed by our requests for lots of green balloons, a bright blue cloud covered coffin, lollies and our weird sense of humour.

Carly reassured me about the Greenhaven's team's care of my wife’s body. Carly openly and respectfully answered my questions about other unpleasant details, which accompany death, of which I had no experience.

Eliza in the team, helped us with the DVD photo and music tribute at the last minute and ensured that all of the technical requirements worked. Also, she fastidiously tested the equipment at the venue, before the event.

It was obvious that Carly worked closely with our chosen celebrant to ensure that the timings and events were seamless on the day. Carly and her team went above and beyond to make the ceremony special for myself and our friends.

People went out of their way to let me know how impressed they were by the Greenhaven Funeral team.

It is without hesitation that I would like to recommend Greenhaven Funerals. They were very professional and provided a unique and customised service.

Thankfully a friend recommended Doorite Screens to us. Andy listened to our requests and was very thorough recording our requirements. Wayne was fastidious with the measurements on our 80 year old house and double checked his templates and any queries he had with us. Very professional service and we are so pleased with the quality of the finished product.
